The Recharge Subscription Started event triggers a Listrak Custom Event when a customer removes the skip function for a product in Recharge. In the journey, you can message a customer to confirm the changes in their subscription.
This guide will outline the personalization options to customize the journey and messages triggered by the Recharge integration.
Personalizing the Journey with Custom Event Properties
The Custom Event called Recharge Subscription Unskipped [[Your Store Name]] is automatically created as part of the integration process. Recharge passes the following payload to Listrak customized with the specific product information for the subscription.
