Prerequisites

Before starting the integration process, you must already have a Shopify store set up in Recharge. You will also need to have access to the Recharge API. If this is your first time using the Recharge API, you will need to request access to this feature.

How does Recharge work with Kustomer?

Kustomer's Recharge integration involves a workflow that ingests a Recharge subscription object received via a webhook, which creates a custom object from that subscription. The resulting custom object is displayed to agents in the Kustomer timeline.

Agents can view subscription data from the timeline or Insight Panel. Agents can also use the View in Recharge button in the timeline to launch their Recharge dashboard where they can manage the subscription.

Note: This app integration can connect to one Recharge account. If you need recommendations for integrating with more than one Recharge account, please contact our support team.

Create a Recharge API token

The first step in this integration will be to create an API token in Recharge for Kustomer to use.

Sign in to your Recharge admin page, then go to Integrations > Enabled integrations > API tokens to create an API token for Kustomer that has Read access to Subscriptions and Customers. Leave this browser tab open to access the API token, as you will use it in Kustomer in the next step.

Install the Recharge app

Next, you'll install the Recharge app from within the Kustomer App Directory.

  1. Go to Appsand select Explore Directory.
  2. Search for Recharge in the App Directory, and then select Install.
  3. You'll be asked to provide some integration details. Paste the Recharge API token you created earlier where prompted.
  4. In the Shopify store subdomain field, enter the prefix of your Shopify URL and omit the .myshopify.com. For example, if your Shopify URL is https://acme-usa.myshopify.com, you would enter acme-usa.
  5. Select Install to finish setup and installation.

With Recharge set up and installed, your agents will now be able to view Recharge subscription information from the Kustomer timeline.
