Payment Retry Logic

A system that attempts to rebill a customer after a failed payment to reduce involuntary churn.

What is Payment Retry Logic?

Payment retry logic automatically attempts to process a failed transaction before canceling a subscription or purchase.

Retrying failed payments improves revenue recovery.

Common retry strategies include:

  • Intelligent retries based on bank response codes
  • Gradual retry attempts over multiple days
  • Notifying users to update payment methods

    • Many billing platforms, including Stripe, offer built-in payment retry mechanisms.
