Migrating Subscription
The merchant can choose to manually migrate their subscriptions from other platforms to Loop using the inbuilt utility. This facilitates the migration process by allowing you to create the subscription contract manually on the platform.
There is just one prerequisite to using the manual subscription creation utility. At least one subscription-compatible payment method must be present on Shopify.
[Guide to check if a compatible payment method exists in Shopify]
If a compatible payment method is not present, then you can use the inbuilt payment migration utility to migrate payment details to Shopify from supported payment providers
This method is best suited when you have less than 50 subscriptions on your previous platform
