Product tour: Churn management & revenue recovery

Welcome to the Recurly product tour.

We'll discuss the ways Recurly lowers churn and helps merchants recover lost revenue. Through integrated tools and actionable insights.

Churn is the enemy of every subscription business, but churn can be unintentional and even preventable.

Recurly solves both involuntary churn with our automatic account updater, intelligent retry and stunning campaigns.

And voluntary churn with subscription life cycle functionality like loyalty programs, downgrades, and pause features.

The first way we fight churn is with our account updater. Monitoring and updating customers' credit cards when necessary.

This proactively lowers churn by updating a credit card before a failed billing attempt, streamlining the customer's experience.

You can easily enable this feature for every gateway we support.

Recurly will automatically apply the latest card information for updated expiration dates, and updated credit card numbers.

Capturing all update events in the account's history.
