What's included
Everything a retail business runs on, in one system.
Retailers and DTC brands building a subscription box (snack, beauty, hobby, fitness, books) and choosing a recurring-billing platform.
Box configuration
Set price, cadence, and included items. Update the curated set each cycle without changing subscribers' Stripe plans.
Fulfillment automation
Every charge fires subscription.charged. Use it to add a row to your shipping Google Sheet, post to Slack, or sync to ShipStation.
No per-transaction surcharge
Recharge and Bold take 1-2% off every renewal. Vertex doesn't. Stripe's standard processing fee is the only marginal cost.
Customer self-service
Customers manage their card, billing address, and cancellation through the standard Stripe Billing Portal.

How do you compare to Recharge?
Recharge bolts onto Shopify and charges per transaction. Vertex is a unified platform — your storefront, subscription, and customer record share one database, with no per-transaction surcharge on top of Stripe.
Can I change what's in the box each month?
Yes. Curated contents are managed in your admin separately from the Stripe plan, so subscribers keep their existing billing while contents rotate.
Does it handle shipping?
Vertex tracks the order and fires subscription.charged; you can route fulfillment to ShipStation, Easyship, or any tool via the automation layer.
