Recharge MRR, churn, and LTV:CAC dashboard in Knowi joined with Shopify and Stripe

The Subscription Metrics That Actually Matter

Recharge's built-in analytics shows you the basics. Knowi pulls every field from the Recharge API and lets you slice it any way - by product, by cohort, by acquisition channel, joined with Shopify orders and Stripe charges.

MRR & ARR

Normalized monthly recurring revenue from active subscriptions across every product and plan

Churn Rate

Gross churn, net churn, passive churn (failed payments), and active churn (cancellations) - all separated

Cohort Retention

Heatmap of customers by signup month showing the percentage still subscribed at month N

LTV & CAC Payback

Lifetime value per customer joined with Shopify acquisition cost from Google Ads and Meta

Native Recharge API Connector

Knowi connects to Recharge through the 2021-11 REST API with cursor pagination, automatic rate limiting (2 req/sec, 40 burst), and the standard X-Recharge-Access-Token header. Pull subscriptions, customers, orders, charges, products, discounts, addresses, and one-time products - or hit any endpoint via the custom query builder.

Backfills of 100K+ subscriptions handle automatically. Incremental syncs use updated_at_min to fetch only changes since the last run. Production-grade out of the box - no Lambda, no Airflow, no ETL pipeline to maintain.

Join Recharge with Shopify, Stripe, and Klaviyo

The questions that matter aren't in Recharge alone. Did this customer's Recharge MRR justify their Shopify acquisition cost? Did the email campaign Klaviyo sent two weeks ago move customers off pause? What's the Stripe processing fee dragging on net subscription revenue?

Knowi runs SQL-style cross-source joins across Recharge, Shopify, Stripe, Klaviyo, your data warehouse, and any REST API - all in a single query. No warehouse needed. This is the gap Peel, Polar, and Glew can't close.

Ask Questions About Your Recharge Data in Plain English

"What's my passive churn this month?" "Show me MRR by product for Q4." "Which Shopify acquisition channels produce the highest Recharge LTV?" "Which discount codes have the most cohort retention?"

Knowi's agentic BI understands your Recharge schema - subscriptions, charges, orders, customers - and returns instant visualizations. No SQL. No dashboard-builder learning curve. Most insights are one sentence away.

Built for Subscription. Not Bolted On.

Frequently Asked Questions

Recharge analytics, integration, and BI - answered.

What is the best BI tool for Recharge? +

Knowi is the best BI tool for Recharge subscription businesses that need to combine Recharge data with other sources. A native connector pulls subscriptions, customers, orders, charges, products, and discounts via the Recharge API. Then join that data with Shopify, Stripe, Klaviyo, and your data warehouse in a single dashboard - no ETL or warehouse required. AI natural language queries and white-label embedding round it out, which point solutions like Peel and Polar do not offer.

How does Knowi calculate MRR from Recharge? +

Knowi pulls active subscriptions from the Recharge API and normalizes each subscription's price by its billing frequency to a monthly value. A 30-day subscription at $25 contributes $25 to MRR; a 90-day subscription at $75 contributes $25. The Recharge MRR dashboard breaks this down by product, plan, and cohort, and lets you join with Shopify revenue to reconcile against the storefront.

Can I build cohort retention analysis on Recharge data? +

Yes. Knowi's Recharge connector pulls subscription created_at and cancelled_at timestamps, which is what cohort retention needs. Build a heatmap of cohorts by signup month showing the percentage of customers still active at month 1, 2, 3, and so on. Combine with Shopify customer data to segment cohorts by first-order product or acquisition channel.

How do I connect Recharge to Knowi? +

Generate an API token in your Recharge admin under Tools & apps, API tokens, then paste it into Knowi's Recharge datasource. Knowi calls the Recharge 2021-11 REST API with the X-Recharge-Access-Token header, paginates through all subscriptions, customers, orders, and charges, and respects Recharge's 2-call-per-second rate limit. No OAuth setup required for private integrations. Full setup guide in our Recharge integration docs.

How is Knowi different from Peel Insights and Polar Analytics for Recharge? +

Peel and Polar are pre-packaged DTC analytics tools - you get the dashboards they decided to build. Knowi is a full BI platform with a native Recharge connector, which means you can build any dashboard, join Recharge with any other data source (your warehouse, internal database, custom APIs), embed dashboards in your own product, and ask questions in natural language. If you're a Recharge merchant who outgrows Peel or Polar's templates, Knowi is the next step.

Can I join Recharge data with Shopify and Stripe? +

Yes - this is Knowi's core differentiator. Cross-source joins let you combine Recharge subscriptions, Shopify orders, and Stripe charges in a single query. Reconcile Recharge MRR against Shopify storefront revenue, attribute subscription LTV to Stripe processing fees, or link Klaviyo email engagement to subscription churn. No warehouse, no ETL.

Can I embed Recharge analytics in my own application? +

Yes. Knowi provides white-label embedded Recharge analytics for agencies and SaaS apps. Embed dashboards via iframe or JavaScript SDK with SSO, multi-tenant data isolation, and full custom branding. Agencies managing multiple Recharge stores can build template dashboards once and deploy across clients. Recharge agencies and partners use this for client reporting portals.

Does Knowi handle Recharge API rate limits and pagination? +

Yes. The Recharge API uses cursor-based pagination with a 250-record page size and a leaky-bucket rate limit of 40 burst calls and 2 calls per second sustained. Knowi automatically paginates through all results using the next_cursor field, respects the rate limit, and retries on 429 responses with backoff. Backfills of 100K+ subscriptions complete reliably without manual intervention.

Can I use AI to query my Recharge data in plain English? +

Yes. Ask questions like "what's my passive churn rate this month?" or "show me MRR by product for Q4" or "which discount codes have the highest LTV?". Knowi's agentic BI understands your Recharge schema and returns instant visualizations. Combine with cross-source joins to ask questions like "which Shopify acquisition channels produce the highest Recharge LTV?".

Can Recharge agencies white-label dashboards for their clients? +

Yes. Knowi is multi-tenant out of the box. Connect multiple Recharge stores, each with isolated data and per-store branding. Build a master MRR/churn dashboard template once, deploy across every client store with their own logo, colors, and domain. SSO API integrates with your existing agency portal. No other Recharge analytics tool offers this depth of white-label support.
