Recharge Subscriptions

Good, friendly and fast customer service! I wished for more compatibility of RECHARGE with other apps but with the Shopify checkout + RECHARGE that wouldn't be a problem.

This app is great for my subscription business and I have been using it for a number of years, but what I really love about it is the helpfulness of the support team, they respond quickly and help me fix any issues I have and also give me links to tutorials to read so I can make even better use of the app. They are also regularly updating the app to make an even better customer experience for both myself as a business and also my customers.

Sean G. was super helpful and fast to provide an answer to the request I submitted. Even if he went to investigate a solution, he made me feel like I could wait a lifetime with his humor and kind messages. So, thank you for making my support experience pleasant.

Very long term user here but opening up about the experience so you guys can see the glaring problems as business owners. When the app works, it’s not too shabby and allows customization of shipments(eg. 30 days, 60 days, 90 days etc) which helps a lot. However, the big elephant in the room is the poor software itself and this app is now very dated while the company has become very complacent about what they have to offer. Read below:

The Recharge app is a hassle whenever you want to update your website. It breaks and suffers from compatibility issues. When we updated our website in 2021, the widget broke and since then we haven’t been able to have it integrated or work with our website. They also store all customer data on their side(which is why we were shy on pulling the plug on the app and had hoped that they would eventually have it working on our website) which means that you’re locked in with them unless you manually ask them for an export of the customers that are subscribed to your website through their widget.

Additionally, the recharge app continues to charge your card even when the app is in a broken state which is what continued to happen during 2023 when they had to move to Shopify Checkout integration.

Lastly, when it was brought up to their team that they were charging through this time and despite no services being rendered and failed integrations on out website, the team offered no refunds for this entire period of time. The contact from the company was more interested in nit picking what I had to say rather than trying to understand what I was saying, looking at the big picture, and helping constructively solve the problem.

We are all in business and understand that customers shouldn’t be charged for something that is broken and not functional for the consumer or end user. There are much better apps with easier integration that I’d recommend. This one’s a convoluted mess and as business owners, we want to focus on sales and marketing rather than never-ending app integration issues.

Suffice to say, at this point, Recharge isn’t a good app that we’d recommend to incorporate in your store.

The Recharge team has been great (Ana, Brendhain, Timoor & Jairus specifically). We've been with them from the beginning and they've been open to ideas and very responsive in helping to solve anything that needs to be addressed.

Great, timely support! This app works fantastic and has been extremely beneficial in the growth of our e-commerce business over the past few years.

Advisors are always a help and it's greatly appreciated. Brian N. helped to clarify an issue and addressed it expeditiously. Thanks!

Tigist was amazing! I've been a customer for over 5 years and the service is consistent and amazing.

We had a bug affecting our ability to create refunds in recharge. Breanna assisted with the customer and provided all the steps to identify and fix the bug. She was quick, knowledgable, friendly, helpful & appreciated!

While trying to setup bulk changes I talked to Kevin G. He was extremely responsive and proactive. When I was confused he responded with very helpful information that actually helped. It was one of the best customer support experiences I've ever had. Thanks Kevin G!
