The Manage Subscription Page is where your customers can update their billing information, subscription intervals, product quantities, pause or cancel their order, and more.
The Manage Subscription Page can be customized from the app admin under Settings > Manage Subscriptions Page. From here, you can adjust the language, change the styling, or create your very own page using our API documentation. Please note, our API documentation requires advanced developer knowledge and is only available on the Advanced plan of Bold Subscriptions V1.
Upgrades to the Advanced Plan now require authorization from our Customer Success team. If you're interested in upgrading, please reach out to our Customer Success team.

If your store is on the Advanced plan, you can apply your own custom Manage Subscription Page in the Bold Subscriptions V1 app admin under Custom Manage Subscriptions Page.
Bold Subscriptions V1's Language Settings allow you to review and adjust all of what's displayed to your customers, including the Manage Subscription Page.
The Language Settings uses variable tags to automatically display the order information for your customers.
Example
[product_title] displays the name of the product.
[discount_percentage] displays the subscribe & save discount percentage.
[amount_discounted] displays the product price minus the subscribe & save discount.
[frequency_num] displays the numerical value of your order frequency intervals.
[next_ship_date_mdY] displays the next order date in month-day-year format.
Sections of the Language Settings can be erased if you do not want the text to be displayed at all.
Bold Subscriptions V1's Display Settings section allows you to customize the look and feel of your subscriptions. Here, you can change the colours of buttons, text, and even add in your own custom CSS code.
When selecting each button class input field, a preview of the button will appear under Element Preview:
The Manage Subscription Page is where all of your active subscribers can view and edit their subscriptions.

The Manage Subscription Page can also be customized to notify you, the store owner, whenever a customer changes their subscription. You can enable this from within the Bold Subscriptions V1 app admin under Settings > Email Notifications.
You can also manually view a customer's change-log from within the app admin under Customers. Simply search for the customer you want to view, select Edit, then under Actions, select View History:
Troubleshooting
If a customer attempts to open the Manage Subscription Page but is being directed to the login page even though they're already logged in, this is usually because of a domain name setting.
If this is happening, you will need to use a different URL for the Manage Subscription Page other than what is shown in Bold Subscriptions V1, as well as change the URL behind every Manage Subscription link.
- Current URL: http://myawesomestore.myshopify.com/tools/checkout/front_end/login
- New URL: http://www.myawesomestore.com/tools/checkout/front_end/login
To fix this issue, please follow the steps below.
- From the Shopify admin, select Online Store.
- Select Navigation.
- If Manage Your Subscription appears in one of the menus listed, select the menu title.
- Under Menu items, next to Manage Subscription, remove myshopify from the listed URL.
- Select Save menu.
- From the Shopify admin, select Online Store.
- Select Actions.
- Select Edit code.
- Under Templates, select customers/account.liquid.
- Review the URL shown under the line {{ customer.name }} If it contains myshopify, remove it from the URL.
- Select Save.
- Change the URL in any other places the Manage Subscription link appears.
When a customer clicks on the link to your Manage Subscription Page and isn't immediately brought to the Manage Subscription Page, this likely means that you don't have Shopify customer accounts enabled.
