Why Us?
Sublium is developed by the same team that brought you FunnelKit, trusted by 40,000+ WooCommerce businesses.
As a former agency building custom WooCommerce and WordPress solutions, we experienced firsthand how broken subscription management was. Store owners were juggling multiple plugins, facing conflicts, incurring high costs, and experiencing poor user experiences just to run basic recurring billing.
We realized there was no single solution that combined subscriptions, recurring billing, retention, and analytics without steep fees or complexity.
So, we built Sublium.
Designed with the same engineering excellence as FunnelKit, Sublium lets you launch and scale subscriptions in minutes, without developers, designers, or complex tech stacks.
