How Payment Recovery Works

Smart Payment Recovery

Paybird uses ML-powered retry logic to maximize your payment recovery rate.

How It Works

  1. A payment fails due to expired card, insufficient funds, or processor error
  2. Paybird analyzes the failure reason and customer history
  3. Our ML engine determines the optimal retry time and strategy
  4. Automated retries are scheduled at the best time for success
  5. Customers are optionally notified to update their payment method

Recovery Rates

Our customers see an average 89% recovery rate on failed payments, with most recoveries happening within the first 48 hours.

What Happens If Recovery Fails

If all retry attempts are exhausted, customers receive a self-service link to update their payment details through our branded billing portal.
