Recharge Subscriptions App

Some of the decision and migration actions are less than friendly and the decision force my had. But over all the system is ok. It does the work I need and the Support Team is very friendly and willing to work with me to fully resolve my issues, few they may be.

The app still needs some work, but best Technical Support Team. Always helpful and will go above and beyond.

Jovana was very helpful and super nice. She resolved my problem and made the whole process very fast and easy! I didn’t actually use the app in the end, I started a free trial but didn’t actually use it.

NGL, there were moments when I wasn't sure if I should stay because clients sometimes struggle with understanding how to access their subscription, or how to make changes. But, things are improving over time and there are far more features in Recharge than the subscription options being offered directly by Shopify. I really do wish things were more intuitive for customers and it wasn't so up-sell focused, but at the same time, I'm happy to help clients when they need assistance.

it was difficult to get to speaking with a representative, but once I was able to speak with a representative, Zachary was a HUGE help!

recharge support was very helpful and response. i do think this program will be more helpful to our customers than the previous. Only omitting one star because migration is far more complex with recharge rewards than any other migration we've done before.

Great customer service! A bit of some technical hiccups and , but overall fantastic. Wish that the email notifications had less HTML setup for customer notifications and it was easier to incorporate our branding - fonts, design, etc.

It works well, need to understand small things that help like formatting files. The Help desk is great.

We've been with Recharge for 3+ years and have found the products to be leagues better than what we experienced with Ordergroove. There core service offers a great deal of consistency and their analytics suite continues to grow on an ongoing basis. Further, 2025 has been a major year for the growth of their additional CRO companion features (smart cart, checkout cross sell and upsell), which increase their value in our tech stack overall. Still, perhaps due to their size, the experience as a Recharge merchant can sometimes feel rigid and their CX experience is inconsistent. Strategic/account management contacts come and go quickly with substantial periods of low or no contact.

Set up was easy, it was a good experience overall with support! I am not sure if it was the quick way we turned the product around but our support/launch call did not come till after product had already gone live. Overall though great experience.

very helpful customer support, with any questions you have

Good for loyalty and rewards programs. Some limitations based on what you're trying to use it for, but the Recharge team is always making upgrades. Customer service is on point, always helping out when we need it.

While the app is constantly upgrading it's capabilities (albeit still in beta for some newer features), their customer support staff are very responsive and helpful!

We migrated from Yotpo Subscriptions. Followed the step-by-step instructions. Would rate 5 stars, but had a couple of issues on data migration due to differing templates. The one Yotpo exported that was supposed to be formatted for recharge did not match what the Recharge tool wanted. Tried reformatting to the template located in the step-by-step instructions and that one didn't match either. The one that finally worked was the one located at the link below the upload tool. Ola with Recharge Customer Support was an amazing help and stuck with me till I completed the data migration.

Recharge has been extremely useful when it comes to subscription. we have developed a custom setup wit recharge api, all the help from support team has been great. App to go with, if you are require more that a basic setup.

Good customer service,The support helped me to fix the problem just in a few hours. Generally happy with the app. Just annoying to have to go through a chatbot but this is customer service 2025 ...

We run into a decent amount of issues with the app itself, but the support team is fantastic. Any issue I have had with Recharge has been solved quickly and professionally by the support staff!

5 stars for the great support from Matt but 3 stars for not being able to manually input Subscription orders.

The system works fine, but updating existing subscriptions is annoyingly difficult. The help files need to be rewritten and aimed at 'mum and dad' users (which I would imagine would be the bulk of your clients) and clearly step by step explain the process.

Our experiences with Recharge have been positive overall. Their support team is great and offers tips/suggestions that are super helpful. The app functionality is great and very user friendly.

Live chat with a member of the Recharge team helped resolve a customer issue quickly with Shop pay and subscriptions.

Very good and fast experience to check on the issue

I was struggling to figure out how to change permissions settings in Shopify in order to be able to schedule our Recharge to Shopify checkout conversion, so I sent in a help ticket. Ola responded so quickly and made a setting adjustment for me that helped me make the necessary change and get the conversion scheduled. It was so great to not have to wait long at all for help AND to receive the right kind of help that quickly solved my problem. I only took off one star because I didn't find the chat bot helpful...chat bots are usually frustrating because I almost always have already Googled my problem and tried to solve it myself BEFORE clicking on the chat feature. It would be more awesome if it were easier to skip the bot and go straight to a human!

App super completa per la funzione abbonamento. Supporto veloce e disponibile. Metto 4 stelle perché al momento abbiamo problemi con gli abbonamenti attivi su prodotti esauriti (quando il prodotto va sold out, l'ordine si crea lo stesso).

Nick from the e-shop Genius helped us uninstall this app easier by helping remove coding from theme.

We've been using the Recharge Subscriptions app for our business for a few years, and we've been overall satisfied with its functions, fairly seamless integration, and analytics capabilities. The conversion process wasn't necessarily seamless, but the issues were minor enough, and easy to figure out. We did find the Recharge support staff to be fairly quick at responding, knowledgable, and above all, helpful in troubleshooting and providing solutions.

Recharge has been a good app. There have been a few tiny glitches but the suppport team has been very timely with quick fixes and good communication. If there were something to improve upon, more UX testing with "normal" users on customer side. Some of our customers are able to manage their subscriptions easily, but we still have a number who are confused and we help with our support team.

Really appreciate the support I received from Max! I sent an email to support and within 35 minutes Max was on it. Max was very personable and helped me to troubleshoot my issues, and he made sure he resolved all my issues before closing my inquiry. Our Recharge Rep, Paul, has been one of the best Client Success Managers I've ever worked with. He personally cares about our company's success as well as the success of my individual projects, and he is willing to meet on a whim to help unblock me whenever possible. Thanks for all your help Paul, we couldn't move so quickly without you! Overall, the Recharge team has been great and is a huge reason I would recommend the brand to other companies! I took a star off due to some technical constraints but they are minor.

We've been using Recharge for 5 years and it has provided us with the platform to grow our subscription business very well. The customer service is always very responsive and helpfull.

I have never been a fan of this app...but I am warming to it since integrated checkout with shopify and chat support. Just had a great experience with support person Jaden Walker. Thanks

We've been using Recharge for a while now. It works better than other subscription software we have had. I will say I find their help documentation generally confusing - like it's written for someone more tech minded. However, their customer support usually responds within 24 hours and is helpful.

Customer service team is excellent! Really proactive and quick with solving issues and providing assistance

The app has definite limitations, but customer service is prompt and very helpful.

I would recommend it. Great customer service and easy to use! Although, my clients tend to have a tough time canceling subscriptions that they ordered by accident.

Recharge has caused me some issues over the years, but their support team really kicks butt. They've gone above and beyond to help make sure my issues have been corrected. I've been using their system for 4ish years now and I highly recommend them

The SMS feature wasn't working as expected. The 3-day notice to our customers (prior to shipment) wasn't going out. That's the most important text! Taylor P. was super helpful in getting the issue resolved. It did take a few weeks, but he maintained communication with me on a weekly basis do I knew the issue was still on his radar which gave me peace of mind. Taylor P was awesome! Thanks again for your diligence and attention to our issue. While I give the app 4 stars, I give Taylor P 5 stars!

One of the best Apps for subscriptions with many more features like third-party app integration, flows, etc. The app support experience is also good.

I was sold and even signed a big expensive contract to migrate to recharge. I migrated all my customers and their has been glitch after glitch and it's a headache every single week. Beware if you are an established business with a lot of subscribers before you migrate to recharge. They are good sales people. *update for 2023 - After getting through a rocky migration and having custom coding done to the portal, we are in a good place with recharge. I like it. Recharge also gave me a credit to my contract which I appreciate. They do have a lot of nice features like one time add ons and the back end is easy to use and figure out. I have bumped it up to a four because we are in a good place post migration and fixing all the bugs.

We are very pleased with ReCharge for the two months we've been using it. Our main worries are keeping things in stock to keep up with our subscriptions! Our time with the growth manager is coming to a close next week and I'm curious to see if that will impact our experience. So far we are pleased with the support and feel like we chose the right subscription app. In terms of improvements, we would like a feature where you could safeguard your subscription supply. For instance, there were times that we put a product out of stock in Shopify, so we have enough to fulfill subscription orders of that product. But to do that, you have to select "Create order always (and reduce inventory)." However, we then found in the ReCharge Customer Portal those products that are out of stock in Shopify, are in stock in the Customer Portal because of that order processing setting - which allows customers to change their subscription to something else that might be getting rationed. I think there needs to be additional controls to help stores manage and prioritize subscription orders and customers because it can become quite complex. We also had an issue with multiple shipping charges if an order included multiple subscriptions that have different recurring schedules. We are using ReCharge Shopify Checkout Integration and ReCharge says it is an issue that Shopify needs to solve, along with the 2.0 subscription widget not switching the price label between one-time and subscription options. I would like ReCharge and Shopify to work together to solve important issues that affect both of their customers.

I am updating my review based on more recent experience with recharge. I migrated from a popular platform that sells only subscription boxes, and I'll be honest, I experienced a lot of challenges in the first month on the app. By the time I found Matt and Nick, I was beyond frustrated. But in the end, they saved the day. Nick helped clean up the migration issues in the "nick" of time before my customers renewed. And Matt ensured all of my other questions were answered thoroughly and in a timely manner. There are areas on the app that can use improvement. Specifically, a way to add a ship-date (instead of being on the same date of the renewal), and a more user-friendly customer portal. On the bright side, I learned how to use the app quickly, by running through these issues together with the customer service team, and my customers barely noticed the massive work we did behind the scenes, as it was a mostly-seamless transition on the customer-facing side.

Very good Help ! Recharge team helped me very quickly to solve my issue. They are super nice and helpful.

The app is very easy to install. The customers interface is comfortable to work with, but not always intuitive. Customer support is great. Vary fast, very efficient and very friendly. Thank you.

Great customer Service from Gabriel. Gave straightforward, easy to read, clear instructions to the issue I was having. Little to no back and forth with a quick response time.

ReCharge has made it easy for us to offer subscription shipping to our customers. The only features I'd like to see in upcoming releases are: - Full multi-currency support (in the works) - WYSIWYG editor to updating email notification templates - A more intuitive way to offer free shipping for subscribers only

The is brilliant and the team were fantastic to work with, very helpful and quickly turned around some of the challenges I had.

Im rating the agent not the app, handled my enquiry first time fast! The app is ok but very fiddley to get it to work as required

They have a great support team that always provides good technical support, sales are going better than before using the app.

The application itself is very good when it comes to subscription type purchases. The only thing which's actually a negative is that when an "export" of cancelled subscription is made, it's given in "in full" As in there's no option to select the date for which you want the export to be given. Thanks.

So far the set up has been relatively easy. I would appreciate more visual instructions for setting things up. Breanna was super helpful and kind in answering my questions.

Overall the app works, the updated interface is a lot more user friendly, but I wish some things were easier, especially from the customer pov.

This app works fairly well for what it's meant for however, there are a few things I do not like about it. I'll start with what I like about it first. Pros: The Recharge customer service team is very responsive and super helpful. I was using a different subscription app previously and was in search for a better one. This one is better than what I was using but I feel that it could still offer more. Customers who are subscribed are able to add other products to a future subscription order as a one-time purchase, so that the added product is only added to one order and not all future orders. This is something the previous app I was using did not offer. Cons: There is no pickup option so that local customers can subscribe to my products and pick up their order, so I had to build a work-around. If you use the Recharge check-out there is an option to add notes to customers subscriptions that will show on future orders however, if you use the Shopify check-out this option does not exist. I find this extremely inconvenient if you need to leave a note on the customer's next order, or on all future orders - you can't. I use to use a different subscription app and decided to switch to Recharge. The migration went fairly smooth however, I kept finding several orders that randomly had free shipping and no one seemed to know how or why. I believe this issue has finally been resolved and must have had something to do with the migration I hope. When I have a store wide sale, I use an app that changes/discounts the prices of all of my products. If someone were to subscribe during a sale, all of their future orders will reflect the sale discount, as well as my subscription discount that I offer. So my team has to go through new subscriptions after every sale and adjust the prices. I believe this could be resolved by using a discount code for my sales rather than changing all of my prices however, I apply different discounts to different products so a discount code with one discount to apply to all orders doesn't really work well for me. If a product goes out of stock on my Shopify store, Recharge doesn't know and customers can still add the items as one-time purchases to future subscription orders. So you have to have a collection of products that are specifically the only products that can be added as one-time purchases, and when one goes out of stock you need to remove it from the collection. I will continue to use this app as I don't think there is a better option right now

The app is a little bit confusing with its features - it's not as straightforward. However, the customer support is amazing and quick and resolved my query quickly 5 out of 5.

We've run into some bumps with customer payment and billing issues and while the issues were frustrating, we really appreciate how quick and responsive the Recharge support was. Nigel was very helpful!

Recharge customer service has been consistently good! Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that ReCharge doesn't have access to the Bulk Discount logic that we wrote as a Shopify Script. We setup a rule, "Buy 3 - 4 items, save 10%, buy 5+ items, save 15%." The initial order is priced correctly, but subsequent subscription orders do not have the bulk discount, so we have to manually correct these. It's a bit of a pain. I believe this is caused by a limitation imposed on ReCharge by Shopify not giving API access to Shopify Scripts. (?) ReCharge recommended that we use their new Checkout / Cart, but that currently only supports Shopify Payments, and we're on Braintree. So we're basically at a Catch-22. But in general, ReCharge does an excellent job for us and our customers.

I am still trying to understand this app. But the customer service is very good. We use it for combining discounts and subscriptions

Received good support with an issue after custom theme install which solved my problem very quickly. Only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because a little bit of code was left on a theme file which I had to clean up. Other than that a very positive experience.

Pretty solid app. We've definitely found it helpful and more user friendly than Bold's recurring billing app. We've been using Recharge for about 18 months and I've witnessed app enhancements and improvements that resolved some pain points we had in the beginning. Their support is also much better than when we first started: faster responses to initial outreach, faster resolution times, more skilled team troubleshooting. They've been doing great the past couple of months. I recently corresponded with Meredith to resolve some issues and to assist with some bulk data updates. She was fast, professional, courteous and just did what was needed quickly and accurately. Keep it up, team! There are some annoying little glitchy things that I wish didn't happen. For example, one-time products added to a subscription order frequently get permanently added to the subscription. But when the next charge tries to process, it can't because the one-time product triggers the out of stock flow and blocks the order from processing. It's also very common that when we create a new page for a one-time product, the page will display the "subscribe & save" button even though it's not even in Recharge's system. The only way we've found to work with it is to add and remove the product from Recharge's product list. Solvable but weird and a bit of a hassle. Overall, I think this is one of the best apps available for managing subscriptions. It's mostly solid with some little quirks and their support has improved greatly.

The customer service received from Vuk was excellent, a quick turnaround and plenty of guidance provided to help with next steps.

The customer service team is amazing. Matt, specifically, gave me over-the-top great service until I fully understood the issue my customers were experiencing. The app is great. 4 stars only because access to the subscription portal for customers can be wonky if the proper settings aren't enabled from the get-go. Talk to a customer service person first : )

Quite intuitive, very useful. It usually works great - we just experienced a couple of minor issues with out "go to checkout" button, but overall very good experience. CS team is always happy to help.

What would we do without Recharge? The only thing I would say is that it should allow a simpler cusomisation of notifications to make the experience on brand,

Exceptional customer service! I've reached out a few time getting set up. There are a few features that don't exist yet that would be really helpful though - hopefully they will consider my suggestions :)

Only issue for me is my store offers pickup and shipping and the app defaults to lowest shipping cost after the first order is made. So, if they order shipping on there first order the subsequent orders will default to pickup because its free. I have talked with tech support and the only work around is to manually add the shipping rate which is static. It's more work then it needs to be for an automated system.

The Interface is a bit confusing and can be designed better. However the functionallity is excellent and the service is responding within Minutes and helps to solve issues immediately. Would absolutely recommend!

Great customer service but you need to look at the fees/transaction of the app before choosing your right price for your subscription because they take a big amount

Customer service is amazing, extremely responsive and very knowledgable. The main issues we ran into came down to implementation. We had to do a few customized builds and changes to accommodate our membership program and it is less than desirable but it does work and it is a good replacement fix until we can figure out a better way with the Recharge team. So far we are happy with this option!

Good app - rather efficient for businesses wanting to set up subscriptions. Great possibilities of customization also.

We use this app to manage our subscriptions and while it is mostly awesome, the response time from the service team is definitely lacking. It can take days to get a response to simple inquiries or even when trying to upgrade service or support.

It has been a really rough ride migrating our store from WordPress to Shopify but the customer support at ReCharge has been a really great help.

As a subscription system, the app performs fine. We are always on the hunt for a new system because Recharge's support leaves a lot to be desired. First, do not pay for enhanced support. It is no different from what is built in. When you do finally communicate with support, you will be gaslit approximately 3 times before they acknowledge that the problem exists. "We can't duplicate the problem" "There was nothing attached" "The video example you provided isn't long enough". In between each communication is at least 24 hours. It's exhausting. Most problems I've finally fixed myself using message board info or YouTube videos. Other problems require a developer. However, Recharge's recommended developers never get back in touch. I have one persisting issue that I cannot correct, Recharge refuses to correct and their developers won't acknowledge me. If all you do is sell subscriptions, Recharge is adequate. If you have other products in your store, prepare yourself for ongoing interaction with support.

There are many bugs that cause my customers repeat orders not to go through each month and I can never understand and take ages to try to figure each problem out, I hope this will be improved soon, although the I'm very happy with the customer service

ReCharge has some real positives, however it does have some drawbacks. It is not particularly user friendly in the first instance. After working with ReCharge for a while it is now excellent, but it takes a moment to work out the most effective way to use it.

Consistently improving the app, and since we've upgraded to have live chat as an option, customer service has been much quicker. Recently chatted with Dalia which was a great experience.

Appreciate the app's capabilities and insights. Getting better all the time, and generally very responsive to customer service tickets. I wish there were more hands-on support at times, but can't complain about the information on self-help solutions provided.

After installing the app, our store encountered theme issues. Recharge helped us out and we found a good solution to the problem. Now, everything runs smoothly.

The app is easy to set up and if there are issues the team is very responsive. The interface can be a little convoluted to navigate and we don't have options to set proper discount percentages unless we create a coupon from within the app. The out of the box implementation inserts certain text in areas where it's not needed and there is no edit functionality to modify. Other than that it's been helpful in testing out the viability of a subscription program.

The function of the app is great, but the clean up of it is a bit confusing. Would love for the products to sync automatically!

The support is great, but it does lack some features I wish it had. Would love to be able to charge customers on the same day each month and/or schedule cut-off dates for new subscribers.

Easy to install. Nice sales and support team. It would be nice if it worked better in Safari. No problems with Chrome

Their customer service is excellent, they sort any problems in a flash. I also like how it integrates with other apps like Klaviyo.

Jessie M has been an amazing help with some of our questions regarding bulk updates for our subscription items. Overall, the app is easy to use and we have nothing but good things to say about the service we got from Jessie recently - would highly recommend!

Interface is a little clunky and I wish there were better analytics, but Recharge gets the job done. Their customer service is terrific and was very patient with my team. As far as subscription apps go Recharge is the best for the money.

EDIT: After posting this review, CS contacted me within a few hours and quickly resolved my issue. I have updated it to 4 stars, and will come back and update again after we are up and running. -- I've never left a bad review for an app before, and I understand that many app developers are also small businesses experiencing growing pains. But I've been trying to get this installed for over a week and multiple customer service tickets are ignored. I'm trying to make what should be quite a simple adjustment - offering a subscription box instead of Subscribe and Save, so thus not having a drop down menu. The app is glitching, and there is no support available. This is delaying the launch of a subscription product we have planned for a long time.

A very useful tool, but excellent, friendly customer support too. I would happily recommend to other shopify users.

I have been using Recharge for a few years. My subscription business has grown consistently. Great customer support, which means the most to me.

Customer service rep Jessie Mills is stellar. Very knowledgeable and gives quick, helpful responses. The only reason I'm not giving a 5 star is because the rest of ReCharge as an app doesn't meet her standards of service, and leaves us wanting more. Since I'm technically reviewing ReCharge I have to leave it at 4. Jessie gets 5 stars any day!

Just want to share that ReCharge's customer service is on point every time I needed help. My most recent experience was with Jessie M. and it was superb. ;)

the support is fast and great (we had Alicia J to help our issues with system), but the app itself is 3 stars since its not friendly for Asia market use. the time frame is US or CANADA base so we have to always edit customer's order when we process them. also first name and last name flip so it was very confusing for our customers. If in the near future you could create the app more friends for Asia (like Japan), that would be great.
