They do allow merchants to sell subscriptions - https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/subscriptions

I think this is super new - there are only two apps that offer subscriptions that integrate with Shopify Checkout, and one of them launched in November it seems and is still in beta:

Yes, I work at Shopify and our first party subscription support just recently launched a few months ago.
Awesome! Very exciting. I recently launched a small business which has a natural subscriptions element (https://narwallmask.com - a mask with replacement filters, which you may want regularly) but without subs integrated into shopify checkout, I decided simply not to offer it. Maybe now I can!

Can you say whether wasm helped make this happen? Seems quite plausible to me...

Perhaps in the future (on the team that added subscriptions at Shopify)
