Can subscribers customize their box?

Yes. A personalization quiz at signup captures preferences (skin type, scent preferences, dietary restrictions). The admin curation tool uses these preferences to filter available products for each subscriber's box.

How do pause and skip work?

Subscribers can pause their subscription for 1–3 cycles or skip a single month from their account portal. Paused subscriptions resume automatically; skipped months are logged but the subscription continues.

What is churn prediction?

The model identifies at-risk subscribers based on signals: declined payment, recent skip, no engagement with unboxing content, and decreasing NPS score. At-risk subscribers are surfaced for proactive retention outreach.

The Challenge

Why building a Subscription Box from scratch is hard

Building a Subscription Box Platform from scratch requires months of development time and significant engineering resources. Teams struggle to coordinate frontend, backend, database, and authentication while managing subscription box-specific business logic, integrations, and role-based access rules.

What's Included

Everything your Subscription Box needs

ProjectCode generates a production-ready Subscription Box with all the modules your team needs from day one.

Flexible subscription plans (monthly, quarterly, annual)

Box curation tool with product slots per cycle

Subscriber management with pause, skip, and cancel flows

Payment dunning for failed recurring charges

Churn prediction with at-risk subscriber alerts

Personalization surveys for box customization

Referral program with credit rewards

Cohort retention analysis and LTV forecasting

Architecture

How it's built

The generated Subscription Box follows production-grade architecture patterns.

React 18 + TypeScript frontend with role-based dashboards tailored for subscription box workflows

NestJS REST API with dedicated subscription box modules, DTOs, validators, and service layer

PostgreSQL relational schema with normalized tables for all subscription box entities

JWT + Google OAuth authentication with granular permission gates per role

Real-time Socket.IO events for live subscription box status updates and notifications

Managed hosting with one-click deploy, custom domain, and auto-SSL

Database

PostgreSQL schema designed for Subscription Box

ProjectCode generates a normalized, indexed PostgreSQL schema with the right tables and relationships for your use case. You own the schema and can evolve it freely.

subscriptions (id, customer_id, plan_id, status, current_cycle, next_billing_date, payment_method_id, address jsonb, preferences jsonb)
boxes (id, subscription_id, cycle_number, status, items jsonb, shipped_at, tracking_number, cost, revenue)
dunning_events (id, subscription_id, attempt_number, attempted_at, next_retry_at, error_code, resolved_at)
referrals (id, referrer_id, referee_id, code, credit_amount, credited_at, status)

FAQ

Common questions about building a Subscription Box

The platform uses Stripe Billing to manage recurring subscriptions. Charges are processed automatically on the renewal date. Failed charges trigger a configurable dunning sequence (retry on day 3, 7, and 14).
