# Configure Checkout to Support Subscriptions for B2B Stores
To support subscriptions, your B2B store must use Custom Checkout with Salesforce Payments as your payment provider. You can customize the Salesforce native shipping service with an Apex extension to support subscriptions. Or, you can use a third-party shipping provider. After you configure checkout, you can sell subscription products in your store.
### Required Editions
Available in: Lightning Experience
Available in: Enterprise, Unlimited and Developer editions
Available in: B2B Commerce
[Which Salesforce Commerce Product Do I Have?](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_what_product.htm&language=en_US)
Before you begin,
- Confirm that your store is using Custom Checkout. If there's a label at the top of the page that ready Managed Checkout, scroll to the bottom of the page, click **Use Custom Checkout**, and follow the prompts.
- [Select Salesforce tax solution and set up a tax provider for custom checkout](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_set_up_salesforcetaxsoln.htm&language=en_US).
- Set up Salesforce Payments. See [Set Up Payments with the Commerce Setup Assistant](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.payments_setup_intro.htm&language=en_US).
- Configure the supported ship-to-countries for your store. If you don't configure at least one supported ship-to-country, address validation fails. See [Configure Store Language, Currency, and Tax](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_create_international_store.htm&language=en_US).
- Make sure that your store is associated with a legal entity.
Note
Starting in Spring ’24, the Cart Calculate API is enabled by default for LWR stores (`OptionsCartCalculateEnabled` is set to true). The Cart Calculate API must be enabled to sell subscription products. See [Cart Calculate API](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/commerce/salesforce-commerce/guide/cart-calculate-api.html).
Watch the video to help you sync pricing and configure checkout to support subscriptions for your store.
If you can’t watch the video in full screen, open the video on a new tab: [Sync Pricing and Configure Checkout](https://play.vidyard.com/q8HACNo7KxuYv6ho5YUbTv).

Set up three simple shipping rates (StandardShippingRate entity) StandardShippingRate[] standardShippingRates = new List(); StandardShippingRate shipRate1 = new StandardShippingRate(Name='Free Shipping 7-10 Days', ShippingZoneId = shipRateArea1.Id, Price=0.0); StandardShippingRate shipRate2 = new StandardShippingRate(Name='Overnight Shipping', ShippingZoneId = shipRateArea1.Id, Price=12.0); StandardShippingRate shipRate3 = new StandardShippingRate(Name='Express Shipping 2-3 Days', ShippingZoneId = shipRateArea1.Id, ConditionFactor='OrderPriceFactor', ConditionRangeMin=0.0, ConditionRangeMax=100.0, Price=5.0); standardShippingRates.add(shipRate1); standardShippingRates.add(shipRate2); standardShippingRates.add(shipRate3); insert standardShippingRates;`

After you’ve configured your payment, tax, and shipping services, confirm that your store’s checkout page is set up to collect payment correctly using Salesforce Payments. See [Customize the Payment Section of Checkout in a Commerce Store](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_checkout_customize_payments.htm&language=en_US). Also, customize your store’s product and profile pages so that shoppers can browse and manage subscription products. See [Configure Subscription Shopping in a Commerce Store](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_subscriptions_configure_shopper_experience.htm&language=en_US).
