Hi @jabarrioss

By the nature of private/customer apps, they are not allowed to use the billing api. Which you can read here: https://shopify.dev/apps/distribution#capabilities-and-requirements

You need to set up a public app if you wish to use the built in billing.

Your other issue this will not work if the store already exist in you database is likely because you don't have the uninstalled webhook set up.
