If you want to pause your shopify store or delete it to then create a new one, you will have to stop or terminate the Shopify subscription . To do this, there are different solutions to stop the subscription on Shopify. It will only be partly discounted before your next online store !
Suspend and pause my shopify subscription without deleting my store
Do you want to take a break from your store and don’t feel like deleting it completely and resuming it later? It’s a funny idea but why not! You can completely suspend your Shopify subscription to leave your store and not lose the data, but you won’t be able to modify anything. By doing this, you will have a reduced rate , a new subscription that will allow you to spend less and keep your store on stand-by. You can then resume your old subscription at any time to relaunch your store. To do this, go to the settings (settings) of the admin interface, then click on account (account) and go down to the bottom and click on suspend your shopify store (pause it).

Permanently delete my store and stop dropshipping
If you want to permanently delete your shopify store and end the store subscription and its applications that come from the shopify app store, you must click on “close store” so close the store. Be careful, if you do this, you will delete all the information from your store and it will no longer be recoverable. I advise you :
- To back up your customer base and verify that you have fulfilled all orders and captured all payments, be in good standing.
- Record all invoices.
- Transfer your shopify domain name to recover it and resell it if needed.
- Keep a screenshot of data to help you improve, remember your successes and failures.
Once you’re ready, you can delete your shopify store and start creating a new one online.

How to stop shopify apps subscription?
Everything will depend on whether you have used an application internal to the shopify app store or installed an external application, and whether the latter activate their services outside shopify, which is rather complicated. Here’s what I recommend you do:
- Write down the Shopify apps you have installed.
- Remove all shopify apps from your store manually.
- Close your store.
- Then connect to the interface of each application if an external connection is possible and check if your account has been canceled or that your subscription is suspended.
If you use an application external to the Shopify app store, you will certainly have to go through the application site to cancel the subscription! Otherwise, simple deletion should allow the subscription to be suspended . If your store has value, remember that you can sell your shopify store.
Never forget, we have all had failures , you have to get something out of it, an experience. We all failed at the beginning, it is very rare to succeed at the beginning even when being very well trained (because yes, I myself had coaches and training, I was told “don’t do that” and I did it! We are incorrigible..). You have to be able to “feel the business”, understand your mistakes to succeed in setting up a real business. Believe in yourself, not giving up is already a step towards success.
