Why should you opt for recurring orders extension?

There are many times when a customer might need to repeat their purchases from the last time. For example, the customer may want to buy shampoo every week from the online grocery store and have shampoo shipped to their home in two hours. In such cases, chances are the customer will have to manually revisit the online grocery store every week to reorder two carton boxes of shampoo. 

That is when the Recurring Order extension comes in handy. Thanks to its ability to allow customers to create a subscription for the product and the order will be placed automatically every week based on the frequency that they select, customers could enjoy a more convenient shopping experience. Another popular example of recurring order is the mobile data subscription plan or beauty boxes, which is opted for by many people.
