Recharge Subscriptions App

Switched over from Pay Whirl and never looked back. The process of moving our subscribers over to Recharge was quick and easy. Recharge offers way more features (like pausing) and makes it easier for our team to adjust subscriptions on the backend. The new analytics on the homepage is also great!

Terrible customer service, terrible software. They do not provide you with a phone number, and you are at the mercy of their staff to reply. Which is, on average, 10-24 hours or more. I have been working with them for their Shopify cart conversion (that all Recharge customers are being forced into), and it has been an absolute nightmare. After finishing the conversion yesterday, now my website will not even add a subscription product to cart. I have been losing potential subscribers for nearly a month due to an error with their checkout that they *cannot identify*. It took long enough to get them to begin the cart conversion. Now that it is finished and it DOES NOT WORK, there is NO urgency on their behalf to help fix this. They typically reply with more questions, and ask you to confirm something multiple times before proceeding with a solution. I hardly ever write reviews, but am compelled to do so because I am shocked at how inefficient they are. For the record, this is the second time this year that I have had to correspond with them for assistance. Two separate issues, two awful experiences. Choose another recurring payment app.

There's absolutely no support. NOTHING!
The "Get Help" link in their app is inactive. There's no online chat and there's no ticket system.
How does Shopify let them have apps?

P.S
On October 16, 2023, they replied to my review and I never heard from them. I finally managed to get to a new app and uninstall this app.
Supper expensive with no support.

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

Updated Review: Buyer beware!!! I was very happy with recharge until they significantly increased the monthly cost of the app without any notification whatsoever. We went from paying around $8/month to paying $118/month, and if I did not keep a close watch on the company's finances then this would have gone unnoticed, greatly affecting our bottom line. I understand that costs increase, but to not send out any sort of notification and to try to sneak it by is extremely upsetting. Do not download this app unless you are willing to risk a 100% cost increase without any notice.

Old review: I love recharge! It works great with my store and the customer service is awesome. Definitely recommend to anyone considering!

We recently acquired a new line of business and needed to migrate their legacy subscriptions into our own Recharge account leveraging Shopify. Our implementation engineer, Vinse Ridenour, was absolutely tremendous. He was knowledgeable, detailed, professional, and always provided answers to all our questions. He proactively ensured our migration was a complete success. A shining example of the caliber of talent supporting the Recharge platform and their customer base.

We're beyond thrilled with all the support we've received from Recharge. Our move was a complicated one, as we have a unique subscription model that we were hoping Recharge could help us uncomplicate. We've already seen an increase in conversion over our old website and couldn't have done it without the amazing team at Recharge. A big thank you to Vinse, who supported us every step of the way. He went above and beyond to answer all my questions, help me find solutions and more. He was an absolute gem. A big thank you to Nick and Mat as well, who played a big part in getting us moved over!

Recharge has been a great subscription platform for our company. There have been some hiccups and issues pop up but our velocity account manager Ben Grunert has been there every step of the way to help us solve problems and reach our goals. This review is really 5 starts for Ben because his efforts and level of service are what have made our experience with Recharge positive. He is quick to answer any questions we have and always working hard to find solutions fo us anytime we bring something up with him. The app itself is good and fairly easy to use but it's Ben's commitment to supporting our company that have made using recharge a 5 star experience.

There have been lots of subscription apps popping up lately and Recharge definitely is on the pricier side. However, it is by far the most robust/enterprise level products out there and there continue to be product improvements. Their customer support is always knowledgeable as well. If you're a business that wants to scale your subscription offering and will likely need a software that's flexible enough to be customized to your needs, then Recharge is your best bet.

We made the switch to ReCharge a few years ago (away from Bold) and have been really happy. ReCharge is the obvious leader in subscription management on Shopify highlighted by the capabilities that are available to consumers and admins. The continued investment in feature development is what will keep us around until someone else in the space can prove that they've got a superior product. Only non-positive comment is that it's expensive. We believe that you get what you pay for, but we'll definitely give Shopify Subscriptions a hard look once they have a fully baked solution.
