The Braze integration is available on the Pro plan.

Braze can be a helpful integration tool in understanding what stage a customer is in and reacting accordingly. Using Braze can help you to create content that understands the context of your customers and their actions.

With our Braze integration, you can:

Send an onboarding campaign to a user towards the end of their free trial.
Allow customer support to grant a promotional subscription to a loyal user that experience issues.
Send campaigns to users who canceled their subscription or didn’t pursue after their free trial.

With accurate and up-to-date subscription data in Braze, you'll be set to turbocharge your campaigns ⚡️

Events

The Braze integration tracks the following events:

Event	Default Event Name	Description	App Store	Play Store	Amazon	Stripe	Promo
Initial Purchase	rc_initial_purchase_event	A new subscription has been purchased.	✅	✅	✅	✅	❌
Trial Started	rc_trial_started_event	The start of an auto-renewing subscription product free trial	✅	✅	✅	✅	❌
Trial Converted	rc_trial_converted_event	When an auto-renewing subscription product converts from a free trial to normal paid period.	✅	✅	✅	✅	❌
Trial Cancelled	rc_trial_cancelled_event	When a user turns off renewals for an auto-renewing subscription product during a free trial period.	✅	✅	✅	✅	❌
Renewal	rc_renewal_event	An existing subscription has been renewed or a lapsed user has resubscribed.	✅	✅	✅	✅	❌
Cancellation	rc_cancellation_event	A subscription or non-renewing purchase has been cancelled. See cancellation reasons for more details.	✅	✅	✅	✅	✅
Uncancellation	rc_uncancellation_event	A non-expired cancelled subscription has been re-enabled.	✅	✅	✅	❌	❌
Non Subscription Purchase	rc_non_subscription_purchase_event	A customer has made a purchase that will not auto-renew.	✅	✅	✅	✅	✅
Expiration	rc_expiration_event	A subscription has expired and access should be removed. If you have Platform Server Notifications configured, this event will occur as soon as we are notified (within seconds to minutes) of the expiration. If you do not have notifications configured, delays may be approximately 1 hour.	✅	✅	✅	✅	✅
Billing Issues	rc_billing_issue_event	There has been a problem trying to charge the subscriber. This does not mean the subscription has expired. Can be safely ignored if listening to CANCELLATION event + cancel_reason=BILLING_ERROR.	✅	✅	✅	✅	❌
Product Change	rc_product_change_event	A subscriber has changed the product of their subscription. This does not mean the new subscription is in effect immediately. See Managing Subscriptions for more details on updates, downgrades, and crossgrades.	✅	✅	❌	✅	❌

For events that have revenue, such as trial conversions and renewals, RevenueCat will automatically record this amount along with the event in Braze.

RevenueCat subscriber attributes will be dispatched to Braze with the events detailed above and will populate in Braze's custom attributes for a customer as rc_customer_attribute_* (where * is replaced by the attribute name) and the value is set to that key (e.g: rc_customer_attribute_naps_logged: "123”). If you are setting the optional Braze User Alias Object fields in RevenueCat, these subscriber attributes will be filtered out from the collection before we dispatch the custom attributes to Braze.

RevenueCat will also send your customer's active entitlement ID(s) as an array of rc_active_entitlement_ids.

Setup

1. Set Braze User Identity

If you're using the Braze SDK, you can set the User Id to match the RevenueCat App User Id. This way, events sent from the Braze SDK and events sent from RevenueCat can be synced to the same user.

Configure the Braze SDK with the same App User Id as RevenueCat or use the .changeUser() method on the Braze SDK.

// Configure Purchases SDK
Purchases.configure(withAPIKey: "public_sdk_key", appUserID: "my_app_user_id")

// Change user in Braze SDK
Appboy.sharedInstance()?.changeUser("my_app_user_id")

// Optional User Alias Object attributes
Purchases.shared.attribution.setAttributes(["$brazeAliasName": "name",
                             "$brazeAliasLabel": "label"])

// Configure Purchases SDK
[RCPurchases configureWithAPIKey:@"public_sdk_key" appUserID:@"my_app_user_id"];

// Change user in Braze SDK
[[Appboy sharedInstance] changeUser:@"my_app_user_id"];

// Optional User Alias Object attributes
[[RCPurchases sharedPurchases] setAttributes:@{
    @"$brazeAliasName": @"name",
    @"$brazeAliasLabel": @"label"
}];

// Configure Purchases SDK
Purchases.configure(this, "public_sdk_key", "my_app_user_id");

// Change user in Braze SDK
Braze.getInstance(context).changeUser(my_app_user_id);

// Optional User Alias Object attributes
Map<String, String> attributes = new HashMap<String, String>();
attributes.put("$brazeAliasName", "name");
attributes.put("$brazeAliasLabel", "label");

Purchases.getSharedInstance().setAttributes(attributes);

(Optional) Send User Alias Object fields to RevenueCat

If you are looking to send an alternative unique user identifier that is different than your App User ID, update users with the below data as Subscriber Attributes.

Key	Description
`$brazeAliasName`	The Braze 'alias_name' in User Alias Object
`$brazeAliasLabel`	The Braze 'alias_label' in User Alias Object

Both attributes are required for the User Alias Object to be sent alongside your event data. These properties can be set and removed manually, like any other Subscriber Attribute.

RevenueCat will always use the User Alias Object to identify events into Braze, if set, as opposed to the RevenueCat App User ID.

❗️
Remove any client-side purchase tracking
Make sure to remove all client-side tracking of revenue. Since RevenueCat will be sending events for all revenue actions, tracking purchases with the Braze SDK directly can lead to double counting of revenue in Braze.

2. Send RevenueCat Events to Braze

After you've set up the Purchases SDK and Braze SDK to have the same user identity, you can "turn on" the integration and configure the event names from the RevenueCat dashboard.

Navigate to your project in the RevenueCat dashboard and find the Integrations card in the left menu. Select + New

Choose Braze from the Integrations menu
Add your Braze instance and API key
Enter the event names that RevenueCat will send or choose the default event names
Select whether you want sales reported as gross revenue (before app store commission), or after store commission and/or estimated taxes.
