# Shopify customer accounts

Subscribers manage subscriptions inside Shopify customer accounts, and your team acts on them from the Shopify admin customer page.

Last updated: 2026-10-18

If your store uses Shopify's new customer accounts, Chargezen adds a **Subscriptions** page there, so subscribers manage everything where they already check their orders. Chargezen also adds a card and an action to the customer page in your Shopify admin, so your team can help without switching apps.

## Set it up

1

#### Set what subscribers can do

The Subscriptions page follows **Settings → Subscriptions → Self-Service Permissions**. See [Customer portal](https://chargezen.com/docs/subscriptions/portal).

2

#### Add the upcoming orders block

In Shopify, go to **Settings → Customer accounts** and use the editor to add the Chargezen **Upcoming Charge** block to the Orders page.

3

#### Check it as a customer

Sign in to your store's customer account with a test subscription and open an order that has one. You'll see **Manage subscription**.

## What subscribers see

### The Subscriptions page

*   **Pause**, **Resume**, **Skip next order** and **Cancel**.
*   **Change your subscription**: **Change delivery frequency**, **Change quantity**, **Swap product**, **Change next order date** and **Add a discount code**.
*   **Change payment method** and **Edit shipping address**.
*   **Show upcoming orders**, with skip and unskip for each order.

Changing the payment method and adding a discount code are always available. Other actions show only when Self-Service Permissions allow them.

### Cancelling

Subscribers who cancel see a **Before you go** step with your save offers, and can choose **No thanks, cancel**. If a subscription can't be cancelled yet, they see the date they can cancel from.

### On their orders

*   Orders that include a subscription show **Manage subscription** in the order's actions.
*   The **Upcoming orders** block lists each scheduled order with its date and estimated total, and a **Manage subscription** link.

## In your Shopify admin

On a customer's page in Shopify:

*   The **Chargezen** card shows the customer's subscriptions (status and next date), loyalty, store credit, Spark! and their latest conversation, with **Take action** and **Open in Chargezen**.
*   **More actions → Chargezen** asks "What do you want to do?": **Skip next order**, **Pause subscription** (with a switch to email the customer), **Adjust loyalty points**, **Text customer** and **Give store credit**.

Why an option is greyed out

Options that don't apply say why, for example "No active subscription", "Loyalty program is off" or "No phone number in Chargezen".

## Troubleshooting

### Some actions are missing on the Subscriptions page

Check Self-Service Permissions. If subscribers see "Some options aren't available right now. Try again later.", Chargezen couldn't load the settings at that moment; reloading the page usually brings them back.

### The Chargezen card says the customer isn't in Chargezen yet

Chargezen doesn't have a record for this customer yet. The card fills in once the customer is in Chargezen, for example after they subscribe.

### Subscribers see "No subscriptions purchased"

Check that they're signed in with the same email they subscribed with.
