What it does
Failed renewal payments are a common problem for any store that sells subscriptions. A card expires, a bank declines a charge or funds run short, and a subscriber can drop off without meaning to. This plugin handles that situation by trying the payment again on a schedule you define, so customers get more chances to complete the renewal without their service being interrupted. It also keeps them informed with emails that explain what happened and when the next attempt will take place.
The plugin runs inside WooCommerce and integrates with WooCommerce Subscriptions, so retry settings live in the same admin area you already use for orders and subscriptions. You choose the interval between attempts and the maximum number of retries, and you can edit the notification messages to match your store's tone. Logs and reports show the status of each retry and how often attempts succeed. It works with many popular WooCommerce payment gateways, and setup does not require any coding.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores selling recurring subscription products
- Subscription box and recurring service businesses
- Agencies managing WooCommerce Subscriptions sites for clients
