Check your Recharge account type
To determine if your Recharge account is on Recharge Checkout on Shopify (RCS) or Shopify Checkout Integration (SCI). Please take a look at this guide from ReCharge to find out.
If you are on RCS - move on to the next step.
If you are on SCI (or mSCI) - please reach out to Recharge via their in-app support chat to request that Recharge enable the new integration for your account.
mSCI: Once Recharge has enabled the new integration for your account, it will only start allowing customers to use their subscription coupons on their subscription purchases through Shopify checkout going forward. Any previously generated subscription coupon codes will only work in the Recharge customer portal, not in the Shopify checkout.
