When a Stripe renewal fails, Renewvane emails your subscriber in your name with a link to fix the card, and a small random holdout shows what those emails added beyond Stripe's own retries.

60 of 100paid within 21 days
40 of 100paid within 21 days
20 more paid per 100 with our emails.
Some of a gap can always be luck, so we only take credit for the part that is too big to be luck: about 9 per 100 here.
45 of 100paid within 21 days
40 of 100paid within 21 days
5 more paid per 100 with our emails.
With only 100 renewals in each group, a gap that small could easily be luck, so the report credits $0 for now and keeps measuring. That is common in the first months.

We tried to charge $29.00 for your Lumen Notes subscription, but the payment did not go through. This happens a lot, usually because a card expired or the bank declined it.

After you connect Stripe, the dashboard shows the trial, your fit band and the holdout at a glance. Drawn from the real app, with example data.
Your band, from the leak audit
Likely pays for itself
About 30 failed payments a month, about $3,900 of them, and about $2,600 a month still unrecovered after Stripe's own retries.
Your plan
Example data. The dashboard of a demo account nine days into its trial, drawn from the real app.
Four steps, and the first one needs no access to anything.
Type three totals from your Stripe Dashboard. The math runs in your browser and we see nothing. If Stripe's own tools are enough for you, it says so.
Works todayAnyone can start the 30 day free trial: card at signup, $0 today. You connect on our own HTTPS page with a restricted key, never by email; full secret keys are refused. The app audits your last 90 days and says plainly whether $49 a month is likely to pay for itself.
Day 0 of your trialUp to four plain text emails over nine days, in your name. From day one, the dashboard lists every payment made through our links, invoice by invoice.
You see every word firstBoth groups, side by side, and the dollars credited to us next to your $49. The holdout needs time: the first measured result usually arrives in month four to six, and early reports often credit $0. If our emails did not beat the holdout, the report says so.
Monthly, once there is enough to measureSmart Retries, automatic card updates and customers who fix it on their own recover part of every failed month with no help from anyone. A tool that reports “we recovered $2,000” is counting that money too. The holdout measures it, so your report can leave it out. Stripe's tools are free with Stripe Billing: turn them on first. Renewvane runs on top of them and changes none of your Stripe settings.
| Feature | Stripe Billing | Renewvane |
|---|---|---|
| Retries | Smart Retries. Stripe recommends 8 tries within 2 weeks. | Leaves your retry settings exactly as they are. |
| Failed payment email | A standard notice with a link to update the card. | Up to four short plain text emails in your name, written the way a founder writes. |
| Bank confirmation (3D Secure) | An email with a Stripe hosted link to confirm the payment. | Its own plain email track, so the ask is clear. |
| Proof it worked | Recovery analytics: how much came back in total. | A random holdout and a monthly report of what our emails added beyond it. |
| Price | Included in Stripe Billing. | $49 a month, the same whatever we recover. |
Stripe features as described in Stripe's own documentation on Smart Retries and customer emails. Stripe changes them from time to time.
Small subscription software companies that bill through Stripe, with self serve plans and a real monthly leak after Stripe's own retries.
We are new. We have no customer logos or testimonials, and we will not invent any. What we can show you is your own number today, the emails above, and the holdout every month after.
Anyone can start the 30 day free trial. Card at signup, $0 today. The free Leak Check, and the audit in the app once you connect Stripe, tell you honestly whether the plan is likely worth $49 a month for you. If it is not, cancel in the app before day 30 and pay nothing. If you keep it, Stripe charges $49 on day 30 and every month after that until you cancel. No percentage of what we recover, no setup fee, no contract.
So the report can show what our emails really add, a small random share of failed payments (15% unless you choose more) gets no emails from us. You may recover a little less on those. In return, every report shows both groups side by side, and you can judge for yourself whether the $49 is earning its place.
Type three totals from your own Stripe Dashboard and see whether a $49 a month plan would likely pay for itself. It runs in your browser: no sign up, no Stripe key, and your numbers are never sent to us.
Never put a Stripe key in an email to us. We will never ask for one.
