Is Skio compatible with Shop Pay Installments or BNPL?

Prev Next

No, Skio subscriptions are not compatible with Shop Pay Installments or other buy now, pay later (BNPL) payment options. According to Shopify's documentation, customers cannot purchase subscription products using Shop Pay Installments.

Why aren't subscriptions compatible with BNPL?

Subscription products require recurring payments on a set schedule, while BNPL services like Shop Pay Installments are designed for one-time purchases split into multiple payments. These two payment models are fundamentally incompatible.

What payment methods work with Skio subscriptions?

Customers can purchase subscriptions using standard payment methods including:

  • Credit and debit cards

  • Shop Pay (for recurring payments, not installments)

  • Other payment gateways supported by Shopify and Skio
