# On a newly installed site the Subscribe panel says subscriptions "aren't available for this site yet

**What you are seeing**

On a newly installed site the Subscribe panel says subscriptions "aren't available for this site yet".

---

## Why it happens

Subscriptions need the site's secure connection to Capable's service to be provisioned first. The panel says this activates automatically, usually within an hour.

---

## What to do

Wait and try again. No admin action can speed this up.
