Go Global: 5 Subscription Boxes that Ship Worldwide
Last Updated:Since the subscription box craze hit the market, there’s been a crazy amount of services popping up; offering everything from dog goodies to new age pagan worship supplies. While you probably can subscribe to most subscription box services if you’re based in the US, Canada or even the UK, it’s not so easy for people who live elsewhere. Here’s a varied list of subscription boxes that ship worldwide, especially for people who get disappointed every single time they see “no international shipping” in a FAQ section. Every single subscription box mentioned below ships to at least four different countries. Enjoy!
#1: Love with Food
Want to snack better, healthier and with less guilt? Or, maybe you have specific dietary restrictions that make it difficult for you to find snacks you can eat. Love with Food can help. Not only do they offer a subscription box service that delivers organic, all-natural, GMO-free, gluten-free food straight to your doorstep, but part of their earnings are used to donate meals to hungry children across the US. Boxes ship to over 25 countries around the world.

#4: Birchbox
In every box, you’ll get an assortment of makeup, grooming products, and other items; typically in sample sizes. While the flagship website offers US-only subscriptions, Birchbox has expanded and now also operates in France, Spain and the UK; though you’ll have to subscribe through the regional websites the company has set up. Worth noting that subscriptions aren’t transferable–meaning you can’t move to the UK from the US mid-subscription and expect the same service to continue uninterrupted. Not truly international, but it’s a start.
