Frequently asked questions

What is the best dunning retry schedule?+

A staggered cadence — for example day 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 — recovers more than hammering the card daily. Retries on weekdays and just after payday tend to succeed more often.

How many times should you retry a failed payment?+

Typically 4–5 attempts over about two weeks. Too few leaves revenue on the table; too many can trigger issuer fraud flags and annoy customers. Pair retries with reminder emails.
