Overview
What does Skio do?
Skio is a Shopify-native subscription solution that allows brands to offer recurring purchases, prepaid subscriptions, and flexible delivery options.
With Skio + rediem, brands can reward customers for subscription-related actions and allow loyalty rewards to be redeemed on subscription purchases.

Before integrating, make sure you have:
An active Skio account installed on your Shopify store
Subscription products set up in Skio
Skio enabled on Shopify checkout
Access to manage discounts in Shopify
How to integrate Skio with rediem
Step 1: Install Skio
Ensure the Skio app is installed and fully configured on your Shopify store, with subscription products published and live.
Step 2: Create API key in skio and configure in rediem
Go to Accounts
Select API
Create an API key and give all access
Step 3: Enable Skio in rediem
From the Integrations page in your rediem admin panel, locate Skio and enable the integration by pasting the API key from Step 2
Step 4: Embed Skio Widget

Once enabled, rediem will automatically recognize Skio subscription purchases and allow subscription-based rewards to be configured.
Setting up Subscription Rewards
After Skio is integrated with rediem, you can create rewards specifically for subscription purchases.
To add a subscription reward:
Go to Program → Points in rediem
Click Add Ways to Earn
Select Subscription Reward
Configure the reward details such as:
Reward name and description
Reward type (percent discount, amount discount, or points)
Purchase type (new subscription, active subscription, or both)
Minimum purchase amount (optional)
Tier or customer eligibility (optional)
Pro Tip: Give your subscription reward a unique name and icon so customers can easily identify it as a subscription-only benefit.
Note: Subscription purchases made through Skio will still earn points based on your store’s “points per dollar” earning rules in rediem.
How customers use their Skio subscription rewards
To redeem a Skio subscription reward, customers must be logged into their store account.
Customers navigate to the loyalty dashboard
Click Ways to Earn
Select a Subscription Reward
Using the reward
Customers can redeem Skio subscription rewards in the following ways:
New subscription purchases
Apply the generated coupon code directly during Shopify checkout for a Skio subscription
Existing subscriptions
Apply the discount to an active subscription through the Skio-managed subscription flow (where supported)
Once redeemed, the reward is marked as used in rediem and applied to the eligible subscription.
Summary
The Skio x rediem integration allows brands to seamlessly combine subscriptions and loyalty. By rewarding subscription customers with exclusive perks, you can improve engagement, increase lifetime value, and reduce subscriber churn — all without disrupting your existing checkout experience.
