# Price Testing with Recharge Subscriptions

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](/elevate-helpcenter/price-testing/how-to-create-a-price-experiment.md) 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.
