Product syncing

BigCommerce keeps all products up to date between BigCommerce and Recharge via webhooks for merchants using the Recharge Checkout on BigCommerce and the BigCommerce Checkout Integration. 

For merchants using the BigCommerce Checkout Integration, a product's subscription rules correspond to the subscription modifier on the BigCommerce product. Updating your products in bulk updates the products' subscription modifiers via API requests. It may take up to 10 minutes for updates to process and can vary based on product volume.
