The relationship
Subscription jobs: skip, swap, bundle, retention. We open with that, plus merchants already on Recharge.
How to partner with Recharge
Recharge is a Commerce platform. Subscriptions sitting on top of Shopify and other commerce stacks. A technology partnership here is not a logo on a partners page. It is a named owner, a commercial motion a seller can explain, and a plugin, API, or workflow a customer can run. Merchants live in the store. A technology partnership here is an app they can install, a webhook they can trust, and a listing they can find. Distribution is the store’s marketplace, not your blog.
PartnerMatch would open this the same way we open every book: named overlap, a one-pager, then a scope. Read the developer docs before the first call. Use the relationship method if you want the order on one page.
Commercial motion that actually runs
App listing first. Referral from agencies and other apps. Plus or Enterprise co-sell after you have merchant proof. If Recharge has a take rate on a store, model it before you price the listing. A referral is the right first move for most B2B SaaS teams. Co-sell waits for a seller on their side who will attach you to a live deal.
What to ship first
Recharge API for customers, subscriptions, and charges. Webhooks. Shopify session tokens if we sit in Admin.
One merchant job: catalog, orders, checkout, or support. Pass app review. Then deepen. Put the listing, the help article, and the seller sentence on the same checklist as auth. A connector nobody can find is not a partnership.
How this usually fails
Promising a Plus co-sell before the app is live. Building every object in v1. Ignoring review as a project with a date. On Recharge specifically: arriving without a workflow, asking for co-sell before anything is installed, and treating Recharge partners and integrations.
Aspiring partner managers: the Academy lessons platform programs, marketplace listings, and scoping for non-engineers are the class. Companies that want the channel built book a Partner Audit.

People move. Verify on the partner program page before you write to anyone.
