HPOS (Custom Order Tables)
Native. The plugin reads and writes subscriptions through the HPOS interface, not via the legacy posts table. No CPT fallback shim.
Required since · WC 8.2
Feature
Built for the modern WooCommerce.
HPOS-native. Cart/Checkout Blocks compatible. WPML/Polylang ready. Multisite. Standalone — the plugin does not require the WooCommerce Subscriptions extension to run.
Platform matrix

Compatibilities
Six compatibilities that matter in 2026.
Cart & Checkout Blocks
Subscription products render correctly in the new block-based cart and checkout. Recurring price, signup fee, trial period and discount tier all appear in the block UI without theme overrides.
Required since · WC Blocks 11.0
WPML / Polylang
The plugin's strings, emails and product fields are translatable. POT file included. Subscription order metadata is per-language safe.
Bundled translations · ES, EN
Multisite
Each subsite has its own subscriptions, settings and license. Network-activation works. Useful for agency setups with multiple stores under one WP install.
Themes
Storefront, Astra, GeneratePress, Blocksy, Kadence and most modern WooCommerce themes work out of the box. Old themes that rely on legacy CPT order rendering may need minor template overrides.
Standalone (no WCS required)
Since v2.0.0, the plugin no longer depends on the paid WooCommerce Subscriptions extension. If WCS happens to be active alongside, a compatibility bridge keeps both running during migration. See the v2.0.0 release notes.
