Currently when pulling subscriptions from kraken, it works perfectly for new subs indicating all the information needed. 
However, currently there is no way to detect an auto re-sub as the info is not changed at all. This is really important for streamers as they would like to recognise loyal subs who leave this feature on.

As such would like to request three items. 
1) Add a last payment date tag in the subscriptions return to indicate when was the last payment made (updating when an auto re-sub is triggered) 
2) Allow for a query which sorts descending with last payment date to ensure re-subs are at the top of the list at point of resub. This ensures that we do not have to pull the full list each time and can simply pull the last few entries after the initial full request. 
3) Add re-sub notifications to twitchnotify broadcast as well.

This is a much requested feature for most of my partnered users. All of them greatly miss this, and this would be a great addition to the existing partner toolkit available.


Thanks!

Would like to add a 4th and 5th point to this...

4) A running total of how long (days or months) a person has been subbed to you
5) Ability to see "unsubscribe" reason users submitted (hidden from public of course)

My feeling on #5 is that those reasons should be anonymized before being presented to the broadcaster in any form.

Agreed on all of the above, including Andrews comment on anonymity;
though I'd like to add that it would be useful if users were able to
untick a tickbox if they were willing (or actually wanted) to take
ownership over their comment, too. I understand why people would want
to stay anonymous but, personally, if I make a comment, I'd like them
to know it's me and why *I* have unsubscribed.

Would agree with not knowing who they are also (though I had said it in the first post, opps!)
Giving the option, as Myrathi has stated, wouldn't be a bad idea...

The reason could even send them all as a Mail to the streamer.  If not, I think 30 days to keep them on record would be more then enough time for the streamer to read/backup them if they are not mailed
