Illustrative Scenarios

What Recovery Could Look Like for Your Business

Modeled scenarios for SaaS, e-commerce, and media businesses, based on typical Stripe involuntary-churn benchmarks. Run your own numbers with the recovery calculator.

These are illustrative scenarios modeled from typical industry failure and recovery rates, not data from specific named customers. Actual results depend on your failure rate, pricing, customer base, and configuration.

The Problem

A growing analytics SaaS with ~2,400 subscribers and a ~12% monthly failure rate loses an estimated $18K/month to involuntary churn. A generic internal dunning flow sends emails customers ignore, making failed renewals the biggest growth leak.

How PaymentRescue Helps

Connecting PaymentRescue to Stripe (2-minute setup) surfaces at-risk subscriptions immediately. Smart retry timing typically recovers a large share of failures automatically, while personalized dunning emails with one-click payment-update links bring back more within the first week.

Subscription box cutting involuntary churn from card failures

Typical email open rate

The Problem

A subscription box with ~8,500 members and a ~9% monthly failure rate sees each failed payment turn into a skipped box and potential permanent churn — on the order of hundreds of subscribers lost per month to payment issues alone.

How PaymentRescue Helps

Card-expiry notifications (14 and 7 days ahead), retry logic tuned for consumer cards, and a 3-email dunning sequence reduce friction. One-click payment updates lower the effort required to fix a failed charge to near zero.

Streaming platform with no dunning silently losing subscribers

The Problem

An independent streaming platform with ~15,000 subscribers at ~$10/month and no dunning system in place can silently lose 200+ subscribers per month when payments fail — roughly $24K/month walking out the door unnoticed.

How PaymentRescue Helps

A retry algorithm tuned for the media subscription pattern (lower price point, consumer cards) plus a dunning sequence that emphasizes content value, with card-expiry notifications activated across the subscriber base.
