CUROBI
Solutions · Electronics & accessories brands

The Shopify subscription app built for electronics brands.

The recurring revenue in electronics is in the consumables — filters, pods, ink, batteries, refills — and the accessories. Curobi runs consumable replenishment, build-your-own accessory bundles, and curated gear boxes on Shopify's native billing, with 0% transaction fees and migration from your current app on the Pro plan.

Why electronics subscriptions are their own problem

The device is a one-time sale; the subscription is everything it consumes. Filters, cartridges, pods, batteries, and refills deplete on a predictable schedule, and that consumable stream is where an electronics brand turns a single purchase into recurring revenue. Bundling accessories on top deepens the relationship.

Electronics also tend to carry a higher average order value, which changes the math on fees: a percentage cut on every recurring charge costs meaningfully more per order than it does in low-ticket categories. Flat pricing with 0% transaction fees keeps that margin with the brand.

What you can run

Consumable replenishment

Subscribe-and-save on the refills a device runs through — filters, pods, ink, batteries — on the cadence that matches usage, so customers never run empty and never re-shop a competitor.

What this means →

Build-your-own accessory bundle

Let customers assemble a recurring bundle of accessories and consumables from your eligible products. A per-item limit and cutoff lock the order before billing.

What this means →

Curated gear box

A merchant-curated box that rotates new accessories, add-ons, and gear each cycle — the discovery layer that keeps an accessory brand top of mind between device upgrades.

What this means →

Bundled starter kit

Sell a device-plus-consumables starter as a single bundle, with the consumables continuing on subscription — one purchase that seeds a recurring refill relationship.

What this means →

Built on Shopify's native rails

Every recurring charge runs on Shopify Subscription Contracts and Shopify's own checkout — there's no third-party billing processor, no redirect, and Curobi never touches or stores card data. Your reviews, loyalty, email/SMS, and analytics apps see subscription orders exactly the way they see any other Shopify order. It also keeps your products on the same native product and checkout layer Shopify exposes to its agentic-commerce and AI shopping features, instead of behind a proprietary widget those agents may not read.

Setting up a electronics subscription

  1. Create replenishment plans

    Set cadences that match how fast a consumable is used and any subscribe-and-save discount, and apply them to your refill and accessory products or variants.

  2. Add the purchase-option widget

    The widget renders inside your existing theme so shoppers can buy once or subscribe from the same product page — no separate checkout or redirect.

  3. Set the cutoff for bundles and boxes

    For build-your-own bundles or curated gear boxes, set the cutoff so each order is locked before the recurring charge and before fulfillment.

  4. Turn on the portal and recovery

    A self-service portal (skip, pause, adjust the bundle, change frequency) and automatic failed-payment recovery are included, so customers manage their own refills without emailing you.

Keeping electronics subscribers (reducing churn)

The biggest churn drivers in electronics are refills arriving faster than they're used, wanting to adjust the bundle, and failed payments that silently cancel customers who never meant to leave. Curobi counters each — a self-service portal to skip or change frequency when a refill isn't due yet, build-your-own bundles so a customer adjusts instead of cancelling, save flows that offer a pause instead of a cancel, and automatic dunning that retries declined cards. On higher-ticket electronics, recovering a failed charge is worth more than in almost any other category — see churn for why.

Switching from another app

Moving off a tool that takes a cut of every recurring charge is free: Curobi provides CSV-based migration from Recharge, Appstle, Loop, Bold, or Seal without interrupting active subscriptions. Compare the specifics: vs Recharge, vs Appstle, or vs Loop.

Electronics & accessories brands FAQ

Is there a Shopify subscription app for electronics and accessories brands?
Yes. Consumable refill replenishment, build-your-own accessory bundles, curated gear boxes, and device-plus-consumables starter bundles are all native features in Curobi. With 0% transaction fees and CSV migration from Recharge, Appstle, Loop, Bold, or Seal on the Pro plan, it fits electronics brands turning one-time device sales into recurring consumable revenue.
Why does 0% transaction fees matter more for electronics?
Electronics typically carry a higher average order value than most subscription categories, so a percentage-based transaction fee costs more in absolute terms on every recurring charge. Curobi charges a flat monthly price with 0% transaction fees, so the savings versus a percentage-taking app scale up with your order value instead of eating into it.
