Subscription can mean a lot of things. Can you explain what you are looking for @gray-scientist-12794?

@gray-scientist-12794 -- this app will be served from the app store? Correct? In that case, both Google & Apple allow you to create subscriptions (for a 30% cut month on month). You cannot bypass this (especially on Apple) as far as I am aware. For the web, you can use something like Stripe or RazorPay (depending on your geography). You could also encourage users (though not explicitly -- else Apple rejects your app) to sign up using the web - saving you 30% Good examples of this are Spotify. You can subscribe via Apple as well as on the web directly.
There is no silver bullet I think -- you would have to do this 3 times. Unless someone else has better suggestions

Yes, I am fine because, apple and google are making this process more seamless nowadays, so I think for now i’ll be fine with that
also figuring out how to track user subcribtions, if payment is made on one platform, and user is using it on other platform, going through the docs now

That would have to be handled on your backend/api, no?
Razorpay supports subscriptions. You can read about it here - https://razorpay.com/subscriptions/
