BOLD Subscriptions

Chintak was awesome! Helped me figure out the issue very easily!

Just went through the migration process from v1 to BOLD Shopify Checkout and it was a very smooth process that was significantly helped by the amazing customer service provided by Daniel and Chaysen.

Daniel helped me navigate learning bold and some glitches customers were having! He was great!

I've worked with Chaysen a few times and he helped me migrate to the new version of Bold, and I am very appreciative of him!

Bold's Migration Team was a big help in getting us up to speed in our latest update. Brysen and Cody worked with our team to ensure we had everything working as intended for our subscription products without interruptions to our existing customers.

BOLD has worked well for my business for the last 5 years. It's been reliable and help was provided whenever I had a (rare) issue. I just migrated from V1 to V2 and support was helpful throughout the whole process. Everything is working well so far, and I appreciate Chintak walking me through all the steps.

If you are a small-medium merchant, DO NOT DO NOT switch to Bold!

My migration from V1 to V2 was horrendous.

On numerous occasions in the past year, entire batches of subscriptions were not processed overnight, for no apparent reason. First tier customer service is not helpful, it feels like they respond from a script. The tendency is always to blame Shopify and to divert inquiries to them. You can’t call a hotline, you can’t get transferred to a supervisor. You just get semi robotic replies in their online chat (that only works during day time business hours). If you are lucky enough to convince them to escalate your complaint to a higher level, you wait 24-48 hours for an email reply.

Most recently, BOLD significantly overcharged me for the 1% transaction fee. I brought this to their attention before it became announced that the issue affected other merchants. After two weeks of waiting for an update, I had to follow up again and was given their wonderful solution. In a nutshell: “We (Bold) made a mistake. You have been charged incorrectly. We are now going to charge you the correct amount. Shopify will refund you the incorrectly charged amount in a few days/weeks”. Unbelievable! No substantial apology, no compensation for the time and effort. I feel like it will now be up to me to chase after Shopify to get my money back for the mistake that BOLD made. For a fintech company, this is absolutely unacceptable.

Take my advice, read the reviews for other apps, and chose one of those. BOLD may go out of their way for the large enterprises, but small businesses get treated like crap. I am going to start working in migrating to an alternative platform asap.

If I could give them a 0 I would. Things have worked fine for the last 4 years that I had been using V1.

But the migration to V2 has been a disaster. Today is October 22 and since October 8, when their Tier 2 team got everything 'fixed', customers have been unable to order non-subscription products from my site.

Today's rep told me " the action that needs to be taken must be done by our app developers and they are currently addressing critical and high-priority issues that have emerged in some of our other projects." I'd steer clear!

The migration process was very simple. The team stayed in communication and answered all of my questions. Appreciate the support and would recommend bold to other organizations.

Good customer service however wish they had a phone number. Too much back and forth with emails and things can be resolved quicker if you can speak with an agent on the phone.
But the service we received via email was helpful just time consuming.
