How AutoShip Works

How does Rural King Pet Pharmacy AutoShip work?

AutoShip works in four steps: you choose products, set a delivery cadence (every 30, 60, or 90 days), and on each ship date Ordergroove fires an event to the OMS that creates and ships the order. Every AutoShip order saves 15% and ships free over $49. Prescriptions are verified automatically through the Vet Portal and paused at Stage 02 if a renewal is needed.

  1. Choose Your Products

    Add any product to AutoShip at checkout, or browse the catalog and set up subscriptions directly. Every loop runs through Ordergroove.

  2. Set Your Schedule

    Pick a delivery frequency — every 30, 60, or 90 days. Change it anytime from your dashboard. No phone calls required.

  3. We Ship Automatically

    On the ship date, Ordergroove fires an event to the OMS. Your order enters the same five-stage pipeline as a one-time purchase and ships on schedule.

  4. Save Every Time

    15% off every order, free shipping over $49, and no missed doses for your pet. Everyone wins — especially your pet.

Built for Retention

How does Rural King keep AutoShip customers?

Rural King keeps AutoShip customers with six retention plays: proactive refill reminders from Iterable, one-tap pause flows instead of cancellations, automatic volume discounts, prescription auto-renewal through the Vet Portal, smart bundle suggestions from the OMS event log, and a loyalty rewards program. Each play removes a reason to cancel and adds a reason to stay.

  • Proactive Reminders

    Three-day pre-ship notifications reduce surprise cancellations and give customers full control.

    Iterable
  • Friction-Free Pause

    One-tap pause beats a full cancellation. We make it easy to slow down without losing the customer.

    Ordergroove
  • Volume Discounts

    The longer the subscription, the deeper the savings. Loyalty rewarded automatically — no coupon hunting required.

    Ordergroove
  • Prescription Auto-Renewal

    We handle vet verification so customers never have to. Continuity is the default, not the exception.

    SFSC PIM
  • Smart Bundle Suggestions

    Complementary products surfaced at the right time. Higher AOV without feeling salesy — driven by the OMS event log.

    OMS
  • Loyalty Rewards

    Every AutoShip order earns points. Points unlock perks. Perks keep customers coming back — and bring their neighbors.

AutoShip vs one-time orders — what's the difference?

AutoShip and one-time orders use the same products and the same return policy, but AutoShip adds six benefits: 15% off every order, automatic refill reminders, one-click skip-pause-cancel controls, prescription auto-renewal through the Vet Portal, loyalty rewards on every order, and the guarantee that medication never runs out. Neither has a commitment.

Common Questions

What are the most common AutoShip questions?

Real questions from pet parents. Straight answers, systems included.

AutoShip is Rural King Pet Pharmacy's subscription service for pet medications, powered by Ordergroove. You choose the products and cadence. On each ship date, Ordergroove fires an event to the OMS, which creates the order and routes it through the same five-stage pipeline as a one-time purchase.

Ordergroove OMS

Yes. AutoShip has no commitment. You can pause, skip, reschedule, or cancel any subscription from your AutoShip dashboard. Cancel-save offers appear first — skip a month, change cadence, or swap the product — and if you still want to cancel, it's one click. No fees, no penalties.

Ordergroove

AutoShip customers save 15% on every recurring order, plus free shipping on orders over $49. Most customers save between $200 and $500 per year. Stack your first order with RKPAW25 (25% off sitewide) or RKING50 (50% off first AutoShip) for even deeper savings.

We notify you before your prescription expires and route the renewal through the Vet Portal. Your AutoShip order pauses at Stage 02 until the new prescription is verified — no wasted shipments. The moment your vet approves, the loop re-enters the pipeline automatically.

SFSC PIM

Yes. From your AutoShip dashboard, reschedule, skip, or advance any delivery. Changes made at least 48 hours before the ship date take effect immediately, and Iterable fires a confirmation the moment the change lands.

Iterable

Only for prescription medications. Rural King Pet Pharmacy contacts your veterinarian directly through the Vet Portal to verify, or you can upload it during checkout. Over-the-counter products ship immediately without a prescription.

Yes — AutoShip is specifically designed for rural customers. Every order over $49 ships free, deliveries are scheduled so you're never waiting on a store trip, and cancel-save offers mean you keep control of your pet's medication schedule wherever you live.
