    Recharge becomes worthwhile when
    • You use it at least once a week

    Challenge if

    • You're not on Shopify.
    • You don't offer subscriptions.
    Recharge becomes too expensive when
    • You use it less than once a month
    • A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
