Subscription option not coming up when creating items

I'm trying to make a subscription service for my customers but there's information missing compared to the tutorials I see on Square. 

 

Eg.1

I don't have a "Subscriptions" option under Categories when I create a new/open an item.

Eg.2

When I add a customer to a subscription, there's no option to add a shipping address - no fulfillment option.

I see what's happened here, @botw1!

The tutorial you were looking at links out to the Subscriptions product available to Square Sellers in the US, which includes additional features such as the ability to toggle on Subscriptions when creating and editing items, as well as the option to input fulfilment methods.

Square Subscriptions features vary from market to market, and while the goal is to eventually bring all features to all markets, these options aren't currently available in Australia.

For your reference, here is the online Support Article from the Australian Support Centre.

We'll be sure to make an announcement when new Subscription feature become available in Australia in the future. In the meantime, if we can help to answer any other questions, please let us know!

Hi @botw1,

While I'm sorry to hear you've encountered some outdated information, I appreciate you bringing this to our attention! It helps us ensure the content is up to date for all Sellers. ๐Ÿ™

I have a couple of requests: First, I'm having difficulty making out your screenshots. Could you please try sending clearer ones? Zooming in on the current images isnโ€™t helping. Second, you mentioned that the steps donโ€™t match what you see in our tutorials. Could you please provide the link to the tutorial youโ€™re following for this action?

We'll investigate on our end! Just a heads up that we'll be operating with limited staff over the holidays, so our response times may be a bit slower.

Thank you for your understanding!

Hi, I'm in Australia also and would really love the ability to sell subscription plans as items through my Booking Flow. Any updates on this happening for Aussies?
