A no-sweat approach to health and wellness subscriptions

Spending on wellness products and services is estimated at $450 billion in the U.S. and growing at more than 5% annually. And, despite a post-pandemic return to in-person shopping experiences, consumers increasingly embrace subscriptions for their self-care and wellness routines. In fact, a UK study found that 11% of consumers subscribe to at least one subscription in this category.

This is a growing and crowded space. Attracting and retaining subscribers is an on-going challenge.

Solution

Recurly removes the worry surrounding subscription billing and recurring billing so health and wellness companies can attract new subscribers, streamline operations, and build long-term financial health with Recurly, as we can support HIPAA-related subscription businesses.
