Yotpo Subscriptions is officially shutting down on May 31, 2025. If your Shopify store relies on Yotpo to manage recurring payments and subscriptions, it’s crucial to start preparing now to avoid disruption in service and loss of subscribers.

In this guide, we’ve created a step-by-step checklist for Yotpo Subscription users to smoothly transition to a new platform—without losing customer trust, billing data, or revenue.

Why Is Yotpo Subscriptions Being Discontinued?

Yotpo recently announced the sunsetting of its subscription service, effective May 31, 2025. While the company continues to offer other marketing solutions, it will no longer support recurring billing through the Yotpo Subscriptions app.

This means your subscription billing, product plans, and customer data will no longer function after this date unless you migrate to another app.

The Ultimate Checklist for Yotpo Subscription Users

Follow this detailed checklist to ensure a smooth data migration process and avoid losing valuable recurring revenue.

1. Audit Your Current Subscription Setup

  • Before you migrate, take inventory of:

  • Active subscription products

  • Customer subscription plans

  • Customizations or integrations (like email flows, discounts, bundles)

  • Subscription performance reports

Tip: Export this data or take screenshots for reference during setup on the new platform.

2. Inform Your Team

Make sure your marketing, customer service, and tech teams are aware of the change. Assign clear responsibilities for:

  • Data backup

  • App integration

  • Customer communication

  • Testing the new system

  • 3. Choose a Reliable Subscription App

Now is the perfect time to switch to a more scalable solution like Easy Subscriptions. Look for:

  • Seamless migration tools

  • Recurring billing and dunning management

  • Customizable subscription options

  • Shopify integration

  • Customer-friendly portal

4. Export All Yotpo Data

Before Yotpo Subscriptions shuts down:

  • Export your subscriber list

  • Download billing history

  • Save product settings and pricing plans

Transparency builds trust. Send out an email informing your customers:

  • That their subscriptions will continue as usual

  • Any benefits of the new system (e.g., better experience, more flexibility)

7. Test Everything Before Launch

Before officially switching:

  • Test recurring billing

  • Test customer portal access

  • Test cancellation, skipping, or swapping features

  • Ensure emails and notifications work correctly

8. Deactivate Yotpo Subscriptions

Once you confirm that everything is live and functional on the new app:

  • Cancel your Yotpo subscription

  • Remove the app from your Shopify store

  • Monitor performance metrics post-migration
