Why Reorder?
- Native Medusa plugin — built entirely on Medusa modules, workflows, and Admin UI extensions. No second source of truth, no external subscription platform to sync with.
- Open-source, MIT licensed — no revenue cut, no per-transaction fees, no vendor lock-in.
- AI-native — every domain is mapped in Copy to clipboard
AGENTS.md, documented with specs, and covered by HTTP integration tests. Designed for agentic development from day one. - Officially featured by Medusa — recognized by the Medusa team as the reference example of how a Medusa plugin should be built.
- Production-ready — Roastloop launched coffee subscriptions in 7 days using Reorder. See the full story →
What is Reorder?
Copy to clipboardReorder is an open source Medusa subscription plugin.
It adds recurring commerce capabilities to a Medusa store, including subscriptions, plans and offers, renewals, dunning, cancellation and retention flows, activity logs, and analytics.
Copy to clipboardReorder is built as a Medusa plugin with Medusa modules, workflow-backed mutations, Admin API routes, scheduled jobs, and Admin UI extensions.
What it includes
- Subscriptions — Create, pause, resume, skip, and cancel subscriptions, with full lifecycle state tracked in the Admin.
- Plans & Offers — Configure frequencies, per-frequency discounts, trials, and minimum cycle rules per plan.
- Renewals — Scheduler-backed renewal execution with manual override, approval queues, and full attempt history.
- Dunning — Payment retry scheduling with configurable intervals and manual recovery tooling.
- Cancellation & Retention — Pause offers, discounts, and bonuses shown to subscribers before cancellation is final.
- Activity Log — A complete operational history of every subscription event, accessible in the Admin.
- Analytics — MRR, churn rate, LTV, and active subscription counts with filterable trend charts.
- Self-service Store APIs — Subscription checkout, offer selection, and customer portal endpoints for your storefront.
- Storefront building blocks — Cart, checkout, and customer portal integration guides for your own frontend.
AI-native
Every domain in Copy to clipboardReorder is mapped in Copy to clipboardAGENTS.md — linking architecture, API contracts, workflow docs, and integration tests so an AI agent reads documented behavior before touching implementation files.
Medusa Cloud compatible
Copy to clipboardReorder is compatible with Medusa Cloud. No self-hosting required — deploy your Medusa project to Medusa Cloud and install the plugin as you would locally.
Current scope
Copy to clipboardReorder currently focuses on recurring commerce operations managed from the Medusa Admin.
Today, the plugin provides strong Admin coverage across the implemented domains. Customer self-service flows will be introduced in the near future as a Copy to clipboardReorder Subscription Starter.
