Recharge - AppLovin

Send every Recharge event to AppLovin through the Axon Pixel

Q: Do I need to keep my own Axon tag on the storefront?

No. Upstack loads the Axon Pixel for you once the destination is configured. If you already load Axon through your theme, Google Tag Manager or another app, remove that copy: two tags with the same Pixel ID can double count events.

Q: Which events does AppLovin receive?

PageView as page_view, ViewContent as view_item, AddToCart as add_to_cart, InitiateCheckout as begin_checkout and Purchase as purchase, reported from the browser through the Axon Pixel. Remove from cart, view cart, add payment info, search, lead, sign-up and subscribe are mapped too.

Q: Which customer parameters are sent to AppLovin?

Events carry email, phone and client_id when available, plus the aleid click ID for deterministic matching. The Send User Data setting includes hashed user data for better match quality.

Q: How do I check that Recharge events are reaching AppLovin?

Upstack marks the destination Healthy, and the Events section of the AppLovin Axon Dashboard shows recent events. AppLovin may take a little longer than Upstack to show them, and conversion volume may fluctuate during the first 48 hours.

Q: How long does it take to connect Recharge to AppLovin?

Most brands are live in under 20 minutes. Once Recharge is connected, every destination receives the same resolved events, AppLovin included.

Each event is resolved to a person against a 750M+ device graph, then reported to AppLovin through the Axon Pixel with the aleid click ID attached. AppLovin receives events from the browser only.

How it flows

How a Recharge event reaches AppLovin. Captured by the Upstack Pixel, resolved to a person, then reported through the Axon Pixel.

01 Capture

Captured from Recharge

Bring subscription events into the same resolved customer: new subscriptions, renewals, churn and reactivation.

RechargeWhat it sends

subscription_idthe subscription, not the order
charge_ideach recurring charge

product / frequencywhat they subscribed to and how often

02 Understand

Resolved to one person before it leaves

Every Recharge event is matched against a 750M+ device graph, so a phone browse and a desktop checkout resolve to one customer rather than two strangers.

How resolution works

Resolved before it is sent

IdentityMatched against a 750M+ device graph, so a phone browse and a desktop checkout resolve to one customer.
customer_typeNew or returning, resolved before send.
Bot and fraud filteringAutomated traffic never reaches the model, because what you keep out of the training set matters as much as what goes in.

Ad platforms accept almost anything and tell you very little. These controls exist so you can see what was sent and what was accepted, rather than inferring it from a reporting gap.

03 Activate

Delivered to AppLovin

Upstack loads the AppLovin Axon Pixel on your storefront and reports each event with identity data and the aleid click ID attached, so conversions are attributed to your AppLovin campaigns.

Which events reach AppLovin

Each Upstack event is mapped to the AppLovin event below before it is sent.

Upstack event	Sent to AppLovin as	Key data on the event

Product view	view_item	items, value, currency
Add to cart	add_to_cart	items, value, currency

Events carry email, phone and client_id when available, plus the aleid click ID for deterministic matching. The Send User Data setting includes hashed user data for better match quality.

The catch

AppLovin receives events from the browser only.

Upstack loads the Axon Pixel for you, so remove any other Axon tag in your theme, Google Tag Manager or another app: two tags with the same Pixel ID can double count events.

What changes

What changes when Recharge feeds AppLovin. Two gains on the AppLovin side, two on the Recharge side.

AppLovin

The Axon Pixel, loaded for you

Upstack loads the Axon Pixel once the destination is saved, so there is no separate Axon tag or second set of event mappings to maintain.

AppLovin

Identity-resolved events

Events sent to AppLovin carry the resolved customer whenever Upstack can identify one, matched against a 750M+ device graph.

Recharge

Subscriptions as their own conversion

Send new subscriptions to the ad platforms as a distinct event, not lumped in with one-time orders.

Recharge

Renewals counted properly

Recurring charges are forwarded as real revenue, so LTV reporting reflects what the customer is actually worth.

Setup

Live in under 20 minutes.

You need admin access to an AppLovin Axon account with an Axon Pixel set up in the AppLovin Dashboard.
