Can I Import or Export WooCommerce Subscriptions in Bulk?

What's Actually Supported

WooCommerce's native CSV import/export tools work at the product and order level, and subscriptions ride on top of the order system — but a subscription carries additional state (billing schedule, next payment date, linked payment token, full status history) that a generic order import doesn't know how to construct correctly. Reporting exports (a list of subscriptions and their current status, for example) are more straightforward than a true bulk creation of new subscriptions.

Why This Comes Up

• Migrating from another platform (a different e-commerce system, a custom-built recurring billing solution, or another WordPress subscription plugin) that already has active paying customers.
• Consolidating multiple WooCommerce stores into one, bringing existing subscribers along.
• Bulk-creating subscriptions from an external source for a one-time promotional signup batch or an offline sales channel.

What a Real Migration Needs

1. A mapping of the source data to WooCommerce Subscriptions' own fields — billing interval, next payment date, current status, and critically, a way to carry over (or re-establish) the payment method for automatic renewal.
2. A payment gateway migration strategy, since a stored payment token from one platform generally can't be transferred directly into a different gateway's system — customers often need to re-enter payment details post-migration, which needs clear communication.
3. A script using WooCommerce Subscriptions' own functions (wcs_create_subscription() and related) to build each subscription correctly, rather than attempting to fabricate the underlying database rows directly.
4. Thorough testing on a staging copy before running any bulk creation against the live store, given how much can go wrong when reconstructing billing schedules for real customers.
