Understanding Recharge

Recharge is the leading subscription payments solution providing you with an easy way to launch and scale your subscription business.



What is Recharge?

Recharge empowers ecommerce businesses to offer subscriptions and recurring billing for their customers. We offer two ways to get started with Recharge:

  • Pre-built ecommerce platform integrations: No-code integrations with both Shopify and BigCommerce allow you to get up and running in no time if you use those platforms
  • Custom integration. Recharge offers a comprehensive and flexible API that allows users who have a bespoke setup to directly fit Recharge within their existing stack

Recharge uses a subscription widget to let online shoppers purchase their favorite products on a recurring basis. You can configure the widget to display different subscription frequency options. Customers can then see subscription frequency options on product pages, and select how often they want to receive an item.

Recharge offers different subscription models and core features that take subscriptions to the next level. Check out Getting Started with Recharge in the Recharge Help Center for more information.
