Can a subscription create an order?

[haven2]

I've seen these posts that allow you to create orders with checkout links:

• https://squareup.com/help/us/en/article/6839-subscription-payments-with-square-online-checkout-links

My question is, "is it possible to create orders from subscriptions I create inside SquareUp"?  If so, how?  If not, what is the recommendation for a customer who walks into our retail location and wants me to sign up for a subscription (we sell physical good subscriptions) that would allow us to do it on their behalf?

Hi @haven2  👋 

Can you clarify what you mean by "is it possible to create orders from subscriptions I create inside SquareUp"? I want to make sure I'm on the same page as you.

Great clarifying question and sorry I didn't write that better.  SquareUp really to me meant "Square POS".  I can see how a customer would self-serve a subscription that converts to an order through the checkout links BUT if a customer walks in and says "Hi I'd like to get a subscription every 2 weeks" then the only path I could find is to send them to the self-service path as I can't handle that on their behalf and have an order created.  Any ideas?

@BernadetteA wanted to see if this was an option I was missing too?
