Skio

Skio is a subscription-management platform for Shopify DTC brands (acquired by Recharge in 2026), powering recurring orders, passwordless subscriber portals, and one-click Shop Pay checkout. Its public developer API is GraphQL-first, served from https://graphql.skio.com/v1/graphql, with a data model that mirrors Shopify GraphQL objects - most entities carry a platformId holding the corresponding Shopify GID. Read queries use Hasura-style where/order_by/limit/offset arguments; writes are purpose-built mutations (createSubscription, cancelSubscription, pauseSubscription, applyDiscountCode). A newer public REST API has also been announced.

Skio publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Subscriptions, Shopify, Ecommerce, DTC, and Recurring Billing.

Skio’s developer surface includes documentation and 6 more developer resources.
