Yes, there is a way to sell subscriptions on Webflow eCommerce without requiring users to sign up for an account. By default, Webflow eCommerce requires users to create an account during the checkout process in order to manage their subscription. However, you can customize this process to better suit your needs by following these steps:

Disable the "Create an Account" option:

Go to your Webflow Designer and select the eCommerce Settings panel.
Under the "Customer Accounts" section, uncheck the "Require customer account creation during checkout" option.

Customize the subscription process:

In the eCommerce project settings, select the "Subscriptions" tab.
Customize the title and description for the subscription, specifying the benefits and features.
Configure the billing frequency, trial period, and any other options specific to your subscription model.

Add a "Create an Account" checkbox (optional):

While there is no built-in option to include a "create an account" checkbox at the checkout, you can use custom code to achieve this.
Add a checkbox element to your checkout page with a label like "Create an Account."
If the checkbox is selected, you can use JavaScript or an integration with a third-party service like Zapier to automate the account creation process.

By following these steps, you can sell subscriptions on Webflow eCommerce without requiring users to create an account, or offer them the option to create an account with a checkbox at checkout. This flexibility allows you to tailor the user experience to your specific business needs.
