Milo Subscriptions

Milo Subscriptions is a free subscriptions plugin for WooCommerce, built on modern WordPress. The free core handles recurring billing, free trials, sign-up fees, and plan switching with proration. Customers manage their own plans in My Account. Mixed carts and the WooCommerce Blocks checkout work out of the box. Not running WooCommerce? A built-in standalone mode sells recurring plans on any WordPress site, with no store, products, or cart required.

Already selling subscriptions elsewhere? The built-in migrator imports from six plugins, including WooCommerce Subscriptions and Easy Digital Downloads Recurring Payments, with a dry-run preview before anything is written and a verification report after.

The core plugin, completely free:

• Subscription product type with daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or custom billing intervals
• Free trials and one-time sign-up fees
• Mixed carts – subscription products and one-off products in the same checkout
• Plan switching with prorated charges and credits
• Variable subscription products
• Customer self-service portal in My Account: cancel, pause, resume, update payment method
• WooCommerce Blocks checkout fully supported
• Subscription Health Check that automatically scans for broken subscriptions (expired payment methods, stale gateway tokens, drifted renewal dates, auto-renewing subscriptions with no card on file)
• Bulk re-authorization: one campaign asks every affected customer to confirm their payment method through a secure link, ideal after a migration or a batch of expired cards
• Built-in migrator that imports from WooCommerce Subscriptions, Easy Digital Downloads (Recurring Payments), YITH, WP Swings, Flexible Subscriptions, and Sublium
• An email audit trail on every subscription: each subscription email is recorded in its notes, whether it was handed to the mail server, refused, or never attempted
• Modern admin with subscriptions that are sortable, filterable, and searchable
• REST API for core subscription management (list, create, update, status, notes, renewals, bulk actions, and more)
• HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) compatible
• Standalone mode: sell subscriptions and recurring plans without WooCommerce (plans, subscribe blocks and shortcodes, a customer portal, and gateway webhooks)
• Available in 17 languages, fully translation-ready (Arabic, Danish, German, Greek, Spanish, Finnish, French, Hebrew, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Swedish, Turkish, Simplified Chinese)

Payments

Milo Subscriptions takes subscription payments through the free Milo Payments plugin. It connects PayPal, Stripe, Mollie, and Square in one admin. Already using another gateway, like Authorize.Net, Braintree, or GoCardless? The Any Gateway add-on lets subscriptions check out with any recurring-capable gateway you already have.

Sell subscriptions without WooCommerce (standalone mode)

No WooCommerce store? Milo Subscriptions runs on its own. Turn on standalone mode and take recurring payments on any WordPress site, with no products or cart. It is a complete way to sell recurring plans on WordPress without WooCommerce.

• Create subscription plans with their own price, billing interval, and free trial
• Add a subscribe button to any page with a block or shortcode
• Recurring billing through Stripe, PayPal, Mollie, and Square (via the free Milo Payments plugin), driven by secure gateway webhooks
• A customer portal where subscribers manage, pause, or cancel their plan
• Subscription emails, analytics (MRR and active subscribers), and GDPR export and erase built in

Leave standalone mode off and Milo behaves like a classic WooCommerce subscriptions plugin. Same plugin, your choice.
