# New Subscription APIs and Product Subscription Extension available in early access

We’re excited to introduce APIs and tooling that will enable you to build support for subscriptions into the cart and product pages on the storefront.

You can use the **Subscription APIs** and **Product Subscription Extension** to develop flexible apps that support new selling methods for merchants, and are compatible with all of Shopify’s platform features (including discounts, shipping, reporting, and payments).

Start developing new subscription apps today! Request access to the new APIs using our [early access sign up form](https://forms.gle/HoWTmeNEcC5TF3sz7).

To learn more about building with the new Subscription APIs and tooling, refer to our [developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/tutorials/shopify-subscriptions-overview).
