Failed Payment Recovery

Last updated: October 17, 2025

How Payment Recovery (Dunning) Works

When a payment fails:

  1. System enters "dunning" process
  2. Multiple retry attempts are made
  3. Customer receives notifications to update payment
  4. If all retries fail, subscription may be passively cancelled

Monitoring Dunning

LUNA Admin > Analytics > Payment Recovery shows:

  • Recovered subscriptions/MRR
  • Currently in dunning
  • Passively cancelled
  • Daily trends

Normal Dunning Rates

  • Average dunning rate: ~1.06% of total subscriptions
  • Range: 0.90% (low) to 1.22% (high)
  • Spikes may occur around sales/promotions
