Price Testing with Recharge Subscriptions

This guide walks you through setting up a subscription price test with Recharge using Elevate.

If you're running a price test on products with Recharge subscriptions, the integration is built directly into the experiment creation flow. No manual setup in Recharge is required.


How to Enable It

During Step 4 (Set Variation Prices) of the How to Create a Price Experiment guide, you'll see a Recharge Subscription Pricing section if:

  • Your store has the Recharge integration enabled in Elevate

  • The products you selected have active selling plans

Toggle the switch to Enabled. When turned on, subscription prices will automatically update alongside your one-time prices, preserving your existing discount structure.


Important: Price Direction Constraint

When Recharge subscriptions are included, variation prices must be lower than the original price. This is a technical requirement — if you need to test a price increase on subscription products, you'll need to set the higher price as your original and test the current price as the variation.

For example, if your product is currently $29.99 and you want to test $34.99:

  • Set the original product price to $34.99

  • Set the variation price to $29.99

  • This way the variation (lower price) is being tested against the new higher price


That's It

No Recharge dashboard setup, no manual subscription configuration. Elevate handles everything through the discount function integration. Your subscription discounts, frequencies, and types all remain unchanged — only the base price is adjusted.

Using Product Testing instead? If you're testing entirely different product offers (not just price changes), you'll need to manually configure your duplicate products in Recharge. See Product Testing with Recharge.
