 * Hi there guys,
 * I’m doing a website for a customer, and they’re offering once-off payment digital
   services as well as subscription based digital services.
 * I’ve got WooCommerce installed as well as the PayFast gateway integration from
   WooCommerce (since it’s a South African website) and the “products” ready, but
   I need to set up the other two products as “Subscriptions”.
 * Which of the following two plugins would you recommend and why?
    - Subscriptio
    - SUMO Subscriptions

 * I’d suggest checking out WooCommerce Subscriptions [https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-subscriptions/](https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-subscriptions/)
 * It is a pricey license but it will have better support than any free plugin and
   it will also for sure work with your WooCommerce setup.

 * Actually, both of those are payed plugins.
    Check them out here:
    - [SUMO Subscriptions](https://codecanyon.net/item/sumo-subscriptions-woocommerce-subscription-system/16486054)
    - [Subscriptio](https://codecanyon.net/item/subscriptio-woocommerce-subscriptions/8754068)
 * As much as I’d like to get WooCommerce Subscriptions, I cannot afford it with
   the exchange rate. The others are more affordable and offer similar, if not the
   same thing. I need an alternative to _WooCommerce Subscriptions_…

 * You will need to get support from the plugin developers of the plugin you’re 
   using. Unfortunately, we don’t provide support for premium plugins here on wp.
   org.

 * [@binarywc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/binarywc/) This shows you didn’t
   read my question, as I was merely asking for an opinion, not for plugin support…
   xD
 * I wanted recommendations. Like “I’ve heard that (Plugin A) works really well”
   or “(Plugin B) works great for me, so I think you’d go well going that route”
   or even “None of those, but for your situation, to help with affordability, check
   out (Plugin C).”
 * But yes, posting on this forum was clearly a mistake, because I’m speaking to
   a brick wall **AND** it took **A WEEK** to get a response, and from the exact
   same person, not even from other people. I was told the WP Forums were better
   than this.
 * Again, I wanted to know which of those plugins that I listed would work well 
   as an **alternative** to WooCommerce Subscriptions.
    You have shown me that you
   did not read my question. If you misunderstood me, you should have asked for 
   clarification.

 * Actually I did provide a suggestion last week. You didn’t like what I suggested.
   I’ve never used subscription plugins other than that one for my clients because
   I generally stay away from plugins and themes that are sold on codecanyon and
   themeforest.

 * Also, this forum is volunteer based. We are here to provide support for WordPress
   and plugins/themes provided in the repository. Posts requesting recommendations
   come second and aren’t nearly as fast to be replied to because of the fact that
   premium plugins aren’t supported here.

 * It’s not so much that I didn’t like what you suggested, I just am unable to use
   that at this point. Is there a specific reason you avoid CodeCanyon and the likes?
   I’m intrigued.
    And I understand the volunteer-based thing better now, thanks.

 * I just find themes and plugins on envato marketplaces don’t get very good support
   and are somewhat buggy that’s why I do my best to stay away from them completely.
