Passive Churn

Payment Failures Kill Your Profit

Involuntary churn makes up 20–40% of all subscription churn—yet most brands don't react until the revenue is already gone. Failed payments, expired cards, and broken retry logic quietly drain LTV every single day.

Active Churn

Cancellations Erase Your Growth

Cancellations are the result of unaddressed value gaps or product fatigue. Waiting until a customer hits "cancel" leaves you with a 75% failure rate. By the time you speak up, the relationship is usually over.

Most subscription brands accept failed payments as a "cost of doing business." For Bonafide, it became a massive opportunity. After rolling out MaxLTV in mid-December 2025, recovery rate climbed—translating to $1.6M in additional recovered revenue per year.

“Recovery improved immediately after the switch to MaxLTV. No new hires, no campaign overload, no complicated migrations—just smarter logic and a better experience for subscribers.”
