FAQ
When a customer cancels their subscription, does Skio change their Active product subscription tag to Canceled product subscription?
Active product subscription tag to Canceled product subscription?As long as the customer has at least one active subscription, they retain the Active product subscription tag in Shopify. Skio only removes this tag and adds the Canceled product subscription tag once all subscriptions are fully canceled.
When a customer starts their subscription, does Skio give them the Active product subscription tag? What happens if a customer has multiple subscriptions?
Active product subscription tag? What happens if a customer has multiple subscriptions?Yes, when a customer starts a subscription, Skio automatically adds the Active product subscription tag in Shopify.
This tag works at the subscriber level, not the individual subscription level.

When they cancel all subscriptions, Skio removes the active tag and adds the Canceled product subscription tag instead.
