What is a Subscription Agreement?
A Subscription Agreement is a e-commerce and online document used when an online store, marketplace or platform needs to publish the terms it trades on. In short: recurring service terms.
It is typically signed by store owners, marketplace operators, dropshippers, affiliates and SaaS businesses. Online terms bind users when they are presented before purchase and actively accepted. Terms buried in a footer link, or changed silently after signup, are routinely held unenforceable.
When you need one
- You are about to recurring service terms and want the terms recorded before anyone relies on them.
- The other side has proposed a subscription agreement and you want to see what a balanced version looks like first.
- A previous arrangement was verbal, and something has now happened that makes writing it down urgent.
- You need a starting point you can adapt rather than a blank page — the structure matters more than the prose.

How to write a Subscription Agreement
- 1
Read the full template
Read the complete Subscription Agreement on this page before you use it, so you know what every clause commits you to.
- 2
Gather your details
Collect the names, addresses, dates and amounts listed in the "What you will need" section — every square-bracketed placeholder needs a real value.
- 3
Fill in the blanks on this page
Type your answers into the form beside the template and they are written into every clause that uses them as you go. Nothing is uploaded — the document is assembled inside your own browser.
- 4
Download the finished document
Download your completed Subscription Agreement as a PDF or an editable Word file, or copy the text. There is no signup and no watermark.
- 5
Sign and store it
Sign it — electronically with the free Sign PDF tool, or in ink where the document type requires it — and give every party a copy.
Mistakes to avoid
Terms nobody accepted
Require a positive action — a ticked box at checkout — and keep a record of the version accepted and when.
Refund policy below the legal minimum
Statutory cancellation and return rights override your policy. Publishing a shorter window does not shorten the right.
Cookie banner without a cookie policy
Consent tooling is only half the obligation; the disclosure of what is set and why is the other half.
No jurisdiction clause
Say which law governs and where disputes are heard, or you may find yourself litigating wherever a customer happens to live.
Jurisdiction note. Consumer, distance-selling and data-protection law applies based on where your customers are, not where you are. Selling internationally means meeting several regimes at once. This template is general-purpose information, not legal advice.
Subscription Agreement FAQs
Is this Subscription Agreement template free to download?
Yes. The complete text is published on this page — no email required. Fill in the blanks on the page, then copy it or download it as a PDF, Word (.docx) or plain-text file. There is no watermark and no usage limit.
Can I fill in this Subscription Agreement template online?
Yes. Every square-bracketed blank in the template above is an editable field. Type your answer once and it is written into every clause that uses it, and the document beside the form updates as you type. When you are done, download the completed PDF or Word file. It all runs inside your browser — the document is never uploaded, and your answers are saved only in this browser so you can come back and finish later.
What information do I need to complete a Subscription Agreement?
At minimum: provider, subscriber name, service, fee. The form on this page lists every blank the document contains and counts how many are still empty. Every placeholder in [square brackets] needs replacing before the document is signed — an unfilled bracket is the most common defect in a self-drafted document.
What should a Subscription Agreement include?
This template is structured around 16 sections: recitals, subscription services, subscription term, subscription fees and payment, subscriber obligations and others. Those are the provisions that make the document do its job; anything you delete, delete deliberately.
Is a Subscription Agreement legally binding?
Online terms bind users when they are presented before purchase and actively accepted. Terms buried in a footer link, or changed silently after signup, are routinely held unenforceable. Consumer, distance-selling and data-protection law applies based on where your customers are, not where you are. Selling internationally means meeting several regimes at once.
Can I edit this Subscription Agreement template?
Yes, in three ways. Fill in the blanks on this page and download the result; or download the Word version and rewrite it in Word, Pages or Google Docs; or open it in the LegalDraft AI app, where the AI can rewrite any individual clause to be stricter, simpler or more balanced and review the finished document for risk before you sign.
Do I need a lawyer for a Subscription Agreement?
Consumer, distance-selling and data-protection law applies based on where your customers are, not where you are. Selling internationally means meeting several regimes at once. For routine, low-value arrangements a carefully completed template is usually proportionate. The larger the sum, the more one-sided the terms, or the more the document depends on local statute, the stronger the case for professional review.
