How Autoship Processes Repeat Orders: Advanced Automation

The Autoship Cloud plugin’s hosted service, QPilot, processes orders using your site’s the WooCommerce REST API (link to WC REST API). This enables repeat order processing to take place in the cloud so that your site doesn’t get bogged down running tons of code and cron jobs just to process repeat orders. It’s also a really nice backup just in case your site has any issues – your repeat orders are still hosted & protected in the cloud!

When a repeat order is due to process, the order shows up in your WooCommerce Orders just like an order that came through the checkout – process, fulfill and track repeat orders just as you normally do.

• Notify customers (n) days before their order processes
• Only a few functions on the checkout page to keep your site load speed fast!
• Set time of day to process repeat orders daily
• Start processing orders in advance of their next occurrence date. Great for business that need a day or two to fulfill and ship orders.
• Set a custom “changeable before” option for your site to prevent changes to upcoming orders X days before they ship. Includes a feature to send a custom email notification to let your customers know how much time they have to make changes!
• Orders processed via the WooCommerce REST API means that your site can easily scale to process many repeat orders without stressing your WordPress site or hosting! No more headaches with the WordPress Cron or Action Schedulers dragging your site performance.

It’s easy to view and track checkout orders that originate Autoship and Product Subscriptions as well as orders created (via the WooCommerce REST API) from processing repeat Scheduled Orders. See an explanation of that in-depth on our documentation: How Scheduled Orders are Linked to WooCommerce Orders.

For detailed and technical information on how Autoship Cloud’s hosted service, QPilot, processes orders with WooCommerce, please see our full documentation here: How an Autoship Scheduled Order is Processed.

Reviews

Doubled their Starter Plan Pricing

MakeAnImpact January 19, 2024 1 reply

We had a client using this plugin, and paying for a Starter Plan license at $50/mo. Just received an email today (January 19th) that beginning February 1st the price of that plan will be DOUBLE, with the new pricing of $99/mo. I understand that prices can increase, but to double your pricing AND not give significant advance notice is just outright inconsiderate.

Solid Subscriptions solution next level support

thedrap December 7, 2023

I’ve worked with Autoship for some time now and I can say that I’m quite satisfied with the product and what’s most important, the support. The team is extremely serious with what they do and their ways of working are exemplary. Most of the times I am helped with issues and roadblocks and they’ve been very open to hear about new requests. Highly recommended. Alex.- MY DRAP

Excellent Software

darmstandlert December 1, 2022

This software is logical, well thought and well documented. The scheduled orders interface with regular orders so they are all in one place when we are ready to ship orders. This user interface is so easy for our customers to use that no one asked any questions, they just started using it and scheduling their orders. They have the most excellent support and make sure everything is working okay.

Best WooCommerce subscription plugin

mdriess October 10, 2022

We’re an agency and this is our go-to recommendation for WooCommerce subscriptions. Much more powerful than the other options and supported by a real business + team. Highly recommend!

Customer Service, Tech Support & Plugin are top-notch!

shotvetjenmason March 31, 2022

Wow, I’ve never had this kind of customer service before when purchasing a plugin. I’m still trying to learn the plugin but anytime I have a question or an issue, customer or tech support is very quick to reply with great detail. All who I’ve dealt with have been extremely helpful and professional. Top-notch thus far! As for the plugin, as I mentioned, I’m not super familiar with it, but it’s easy to set up for basic needs (got it up and running in less than an hour). There are tons of settings to customize it to your needs. Quality plugin, for sure! Thanks to Matthew and his team for all the guidance.

Highly Recommend!!!!!

  • HPOS introduces significant changes to how eCommerce data is managed in your WordPress Site, so we strongly suggest that sites enabling HPOS for the first time learn more about HPOS and carefully test this change before enabling HPOS with their Live Site.
• New! Support for Upzelo integration has been added to the Native UI Display Option. Now, any connected QPilot Site that has enabled the Upzelo Retention Platform can display Upzelo Cancelation Popups, Cancelation Challenges, and Surveys without manual code changes.

2.4.3 – 2023-10-26

• Improved: Removed a function that would convert order dates to be formatted in ISO 8601 for use in WooCommerce REST API responses, and that was causing compatibility issues with the WooCommerce mobile app for iOS.
• Removed Functions! The following functions have been removed from the plugin:
  • autoship_woocommerce_rest_fix_data – Removed the call to the ‘autoship_woocommerce_rest_fix_dates’ function that converts date formats.
  • autoship_woocommerce_rest_fix_dates – Removed the function because it is legacy code and no longer in use

2.4.2 – 2023-10-11

• Improved: All QPilot Coupon discount types will now render as Virtual Coupons on WooCommerce Orders created from processing Scheduled Orders. Previously, only some coupon discount types would be rendered as Virtual Coupons on WooCommerce Orders.
• Fixed: The Bulk Update Utility to Enable Autoship Options has been fixed to update the options for Variable Products to enable or disable the display of Autoship Options on Product Pages for Variable Products and their Variations. Previously, the Bulk Utility would not update this option on Product Variations.
• Fixed: The Tax amount is now included in Order Total Calculation for Scheduled Orders in the Native UI display option.
• Fixed: The pricing and discounts for items displayed in the Native UI display option now display correctly when Items are discounted by valid QPilot Coupons that disable the discounting of a Scheduled Order Item’s Sale Price.
• Fixed: The Shipping Line Subtotal now displays ‘No Shipping Options Found’ when no Shipping Rate is applied to a Scheduled Order and ‘Free’ when a Shipping Rate is applied to the Scheduled Order in the amount of 0.00.
• Fixed: Coupons that apply their discount to the Items in a Scheduled Order now correctly apply their discount to their corresponding Item(s) in WooCommerce Orders created from processing Scheduled Orders.
• Fixed: Coupons that apply their discount to Item(s) that belong to a QPilot Product Group coupon now apply their discount to their corresponding to all Item(s) in WooCommerce Orders created from processing Scheduled Orders.
• Fixed: The Native UI display option has been updated so that a Scheduled Order can still be updated when a Scheduled Order Item contains a “Max Cycle” value. Previously, when a Scheduled Order contained an item with a value for Max Cycle (Example: a “one-time purchase” item), the Scheduled Order would not update.
• Fixed: An issue that would cause the Embedded App Display Option to not load due to a 404 error.

2.4.1 – 2023-06-16

• New! A new option for Merchants has been added to the Autoship Settings that enables Merchants that accept Cash On Delivery (COD) payments to easily add support for COD during Autoship Checkouts ( WP-Admin > Autoship Cloud >> Settings >>> Options (tab) ). This new option is Disabled by default for all Merchants.
• Improved: We’ve optimized the loading speed of The Native UI Display Option, that displays upcoming Scheduled Orders to Customers using WordPress templates so that Autoship Customers can quickly view and make changes to their Scheduled Orders.
• Improved: Additional translation filters have been added to include the Frequency Display Name referenced by the Native UI Display Option in the My Account > Scheduled Orders view.
• Fixed: Autoship Orders paid for with Braintree Credit Cards and Braintree PayPal saved payment methods now successfully refund from the WooCommerce Edit Order page. This fix addresses updates to the Braintree for WooCommerce plugin by WooCommerce.
• Fixed: The Native UI Display Option has been updated to correctly display the Regular Price of items when no Sale Price is applied. Previously, when an item on a Scheduled Order was discounted by a Sale Price, but a coupon conditionally disabled the Sale Price for that item, the Sale Price would still be displayed to the Customer.
• Fixed: The Native UI Display Option has been updated to accurately display a Subtotal that accounts for discounts applied to items in the Scheduled Order by Coupons that apply discounting to a Product’s or Product Group’s price.
• Fixed: The Embedded App Display option has been updated to enable customers to make changes to Scheduled Orders that have a Next Occurrence Date and Time that after the connected QPilot Site’s Processing Time.

• Improved: A check has been added for returned errors and a notice is now displayed in the WooCommerce > Products > Edit Product page if an error occurs for one or more Product Variations during the Autoship Product Sync process.

• Fixed: The Add to Cart action shown on the Shop Catalog now supports WooCommerce themes that do not include a Quick View. Previously, WooCommerce Themes that do not include a Quick View would add duplicate items to the cart when a product was added from the Shop Catalog and from the Single Product page with the One-Time Purchase option selected.

= 2.3.8 – 2022-11-16

• Fixed: the check for invalid products in the WordPress admin page(s) when a site is first connected to Qpilot. Previously, starting in v2.3.7, a fatal error would occur when the Autoship Cloud plugin is first activated on a new site.

= 2.3.7 – 2022-11-09

• Improved: A warning notice will now be displayed at the top of the Autoship Cloud Products page ( WP-Admin > Autoship Cloud > Products ) when one or more invalid products exist in QPilot.

• Fixed: the “API Health Check” ( displayed in WP-Admin > Autoship Cloud >> Settings ) will now display the “Unhealthy” badge warning in the WordPress Admin in both the Autoship Cloud main menu item and the Autoship Cloud > Products sub-menu item when one or more invalid products exist in QPilot.

• Fixed: the Bulk utilities found in the WP-Admin > Autoship Cloud > Settings >> Utilities ( tab ) so that all default options are correctly selected.

= 2.3.6 – 2022-10-03

= 2.3.5 – 2022-09-20

• Improved: Support for Product-Level Discount Coupons has been improved for the Native UI Display Option ( for displaying Scheduled Orders to customers in My Account > Scheduled Orders using native WordPress / WooCommerce templates ). The individual item price and subtotals will now reflect any discount applied to the Scheduled Order using a “Reduce Product By Amount” or “Reduce Product By Percentage” discount type for coupons assigned to one or more products.

• Improved: Support for the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin has been improved by changing when the Autoship Cloud plugin triggers the ‘woocommerce_subscription_payment_complete’ action — which is how the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin tokenizes the payment method used during the WooCommerce Checkout.

• Improved: A new option has been added to the Update Product Synchronization bulk utility that can be checked to enable the Add to Scheduled Order and Enable Schedule Options options for all products synchronized with QPilot.

• Improved! Product data synchronization between WooCommerce Products and connected QPilot Sites has been improved by automatically enabling the options for “Add to Scheduled Order” and “Enable Schedule Options” when a product’s “Activate Product Sync” setting is enabled in the WooCommerce > Edit Product screen.

• Fixed: starting in version 2.3.2, Scheduled Order data could be inadvertently removed from cart items when the scheduled item was updated in the cart and the option for “Enable to Display Autoship Options” — located in WP-Admin > Autoship Cloud > Settings >> Options ( tab ) — for each product in the cart was unchecked.

• New Filters! The following new filters have been added to the plugin:

  • A new ‘autoship_exclude_product_coupon_discounts_in_saleprice’ filter has been added to the autoship_get_calculated_scheduled_order_item_sale_price() function in the src/scheduled-orders.php file and passes a single boolean parameter which can be used to disable the inclusion of product-level coupon discounts in the displayed product price in the Native UI Display Option ( for displaying Scheduled Orders to customers in My Account > Scheduled Orders )

= 2.3.4 – 2022-08-09

• Improved: the Checkout.com Payment gateway integration has been updated to create Scheduled Orders after completing a checkout using the ‘checkout_com_payment_captured’ action which was newly added to the Checkout.com Payment Gateway plugin.
• Improved: the autoship.pot file has been updated to include all new versions of the text strings displayed in the My Account, Product, and Cart pages.

• Improved: the Authorize.net refund metadata assigned to WooCommerce orders generated by QPilot has been updated to now include the charge captured value (‘yes’) as well as all of the gateway response field names.

• Fixed: Updated to load Autoship Cloud’s translated strings when the plugins loaded action fires. Previously, starting in v1.2.38 a minimum version requirement check was added which inadvertently changed the load order of the plugin files and prevented the translated strings from being loaded.

= 2.3.3 – 2022-07-06

• Fixed: Updated to include the new order-shipping-rate-form.php file for the selectable Shipping Rates support that was added in v2.3.2.

= 2.3.2 – 2022-06-28

• New! Added support for selectable Shipping Rates in the Native UI, Cart, and Checkout. A new option to Enable Selectable Shipping Rates can be selected in the WordPress Admin that allows customers to change the assigned Default Shipping Rate for their Scheduled Order when using the Native UI Display Option to display Scheduled Orders to Customers in My Account > Scheduled Orders to a Preferred Shipping Rate. This new option is disabled by default and can be enabled in the WordPress Admin ( WP-Admin > Autoship Cloud > Settings >> Options ( tab ) ).
  • When a Scheduled Order is viewed by a Customer in the My Account > Edit Scheduled Order screen, and the Scheduled Order has more than one available Shipping Rate option, a new Edit link will be displayed next to the Shipping total line. When the link is selected, a new Preferred Shipping Rate modal is displayed with a select drop-down menu displaying all of the available Shipping Rates and associated cost as well as the following options:
  • a. Refresh Rates – When clicked, the Scheduled Order is re-freshed via the API to see if any new Shipping Rates are available for the Scheduled Order
  • b. Cancel – When clicked, no changes are made to the Scheduled Order and the modal is closed
  • c. Update Shipping Method – When clicked, the new selected Shipping Rate will be assigned to the Scheduled Order as the Preferred Shipping Rate
  • When a Scheduled Order is viewed by a Customer in the My Account > Edit Scheduled Order screen, and the Scheduled Order has only one available Shipping Rate option, a new Refresh Rates link will be displayed next to the Shipping total line. When selected, the Scheduled Order will be refreshed and all of the available Shipping Rates will be re-loaded into the My Account > Edit Scheduled Order screen.
• Improved: the Checkout.com Payment Gateway integration has been updated to support version 4.4.0+ of the Checkuot.com Payment Gateway plugin. Previously, starting in Checkout.com Payment Gateway version 4.4.0 a PHP Fatal error message could occur after checkout and prevent the corresponding Scheduled Order(s) and saved Payment Method from being created successfully in QPilot.
• BETA: Added support for the new WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin. Support for the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin is only enabled when a new (Beta) Experimental Support for WooCommerce PayPal Payments settings option, found in the new Experimental ( Beta ) Options section in WP-Admin > Autoship Cloud > Settings >> Options ( tab ) is checked. The option is unchecked by default and, when checked, the following functionality is enabled:
  • The Autoship Cloud Supported Payment Gateways icon is displayed next to the PayPal and PayPal Card Processing gateways in the WooCommerce > Settings > Payments ( Tab )
  • If 1 or more products scheduled for Autoship are in the cart, and PayPal and/or PayPal Card Processing are enabled as gateways in the WooCommerce > Settings > Payments ( Tab ), then PayPal checkout will be enabled for the cart.
  • When the customer checks out, and 1 or more products scheduled for Autoship are in the cart, and they selected the PayPal | Credit Card option, the Save Your Credit Card checkbox will be checked by default and can not be unchecked by the customer unless all items scheduled for Autoship are removed from the cart.
  • When the customer places their order and selects either the PayPal or PayPal Card Processing gateways, the payment method used will be tokenized and saved in the WooCommerce Order Metadata under the value payment_token_id
  • The Scheduled Oder data sent to QPilot will include the new PayPal or PayPal Credit Card token and either a gatewayPaymentType set to ’25’ ( PaypalFundingPaypal ) or ’26’ ( PaypalFundingCard )
  • Scheduled Orders can be processed by QPilot with these tokenized saved payments, and the resulting WooCommerce Order will include the payment method set to ppcp-gateway
  • IMPORTANT NOTE: The WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin does not support the creation of new saved payment methods by Customers in My Account > Payment Methods

= 2.3.1 – 2022-06-21

• Fixed: starting in v2.3.0, a Fatal Error that could occur in the My Account > Payment Method screen when adding a new payment method for one of the following Payment Gateways; Authorize.Net, Square, Braintree, and NMI.

= 2.3.0 – 2022-05-04

• Improved: We enhanced the Update Product Data Retrieval Functions to check for invalid products. Previously a fatal error would occur when 1+ products were invalid, and now a log entry is added to the Autoship Cloud Logs when a product is being retrieved but is invalid.
• Improved: We updated the autoship_scheduled_order_quantity_input() function found in src/scheduled-orders.php to avoid a PHP 8.0 deprecation notice that was being added to the debug log.
• Improved: We Added a check for Coupons that use Product Groups instead of Products to avoid a PHP Warning when customers are accessing the My Account > Scheduled Order and My Account > Scheduled Orders screens.

• Improved: We updated our integration with Stripe to handle and record data (including Fees) that is returned by the Stripe Payment Intents API for WooCommerce Orders generated by QPilot when a Scheduled Order processes.

• Fixed: The subtotal and totals displayed in the Native UI Scheduled Order display option under My Account > Scheduled Orders to correctly include discounts applied to a Scheduled Order when using a coupon set to Reduce Product Price By Amount as the discount type.
