Benefits for Businesses
Businesses relying on recurring payments regularly experience declines due to new card issuance from lost, stolen or expired cards. Every month, operations must track down declined transactions, resulting in added costs, negative cash flow impact and lost revenue due to cancellations (occurring when businesses contact customers for card updates). Card declines can disrupt services, product delivery and customer relations.

PayPros recently concluded a survey of 230 businesses accepting recurring payments, highlighting the true cost of declined transactions. Some key findings:

• $8,069 = the average monthly value of delayed and lost payments
• $271.26 = additional monthly costs to track down updated card data (wages, time, supplies)
• $612.70 = average monthly revenue never recovered due to declined transactions
