What are the steps to converting?
There are two main steps to converting from the Recharge Checkout to the Shopify Checkout Integration for Recharge, plus a third step if you have existing subscribers.
1. Store assessment by the Recharge Conversion Team
First, a member of Recharge’s Conversion Team will conduct an assessment of your current Recharge Checkout setup to pave the way for a smooth conversion process. This process may take a few business days, or slightly longer if your store has a large amount of customizations.
During the assessment, the team will consider factors such as:
Your payment processor
Your customer portal theme
Any third-party integrations you use
Any custom coding
Your shipping settings and configurations
And more
After the store assessment has been completed, the Conversion Team will provide you with recommendations. This will include guidance on any customizations your store requires and notes on any current store settings that may not be compatible with the Shopify Checkout Integration.
2. Storefront and store settings conversion
Next, Recharge’s Checkout Conversion Team will update your store settings, plus complete a refreshed installation of your subscription widget. This step of the process ensures that your settings are configured for the Shopify Checkout Integration.
This step includes the following processes:
Updating your store permissions
Enabling a payment processor
Creating selling plan groups
Installing the subscription widget
Finally, once the process is finished, complete our post-conversion and migration checklist to ensure everything is running smoothly with your new setup.
3. Migrate your existing subscribers
Once your storefront and store settings have been updated by our overseas chinese in uk data team, your new subscribers will purchase their subscriptions for you via the Shopify Checkout, and their orders will be processed by your eligible payment processor.
If you have existing subscribers, however, their subscriptions will continue to process in Recharge via your legacy payment gateway.
To prevent this and ensure that all of your existing subscribers’ recurring orders are processed through Shopify, you can leverage Recharge’s safe, reliable existing subscriber migration process. This includes:
Adding your legacy payment gateway to your Shopify admin
Scheduling a time for Recharge to perform your existing subscriber migration
Updating (by the Recharge Team) your existing customer data to Shopify’s standards
