This seems to be the best low-budget solution for small companies and start up’s allowing You to avoid the cost of Woo subscriptions plugins around 250$ per year + extra costs of payment gateways that’s around 500$ per year actually for this functionality. Our theme supports external / affiliate products so this is possible and easy to set up at 0$ cost. If you wish to use woo subscriptions on the backend, additional coding is needed as this is not supported by default (maybe in v3 around 2027).
