Subscription playbooks say retry failed cards more. This month Mastercard doubled its decline fee, and from Oct 25 Visa can charge for retrying declines marked never approve. Stop on the hard ones. Space out the soft ones. Smart retries beat more retries.
@victorpezak That's brutal, especially after doing everything they asked. Ask them for the exact reason in writing and keep every doc, tracking number and email in one folder. Then line up a backup way to take payments so one account getting shut off doesn't stop your sales.
@dougpayments Debit surcharge is the one that bites most people. Credit has a hard cap too. A cash-price sticker with a percent add-on is a different mess in a lot of states.
@FisherLeadsco@stripe Sudden high risk with no path to fix is the worst version. Ask for the risk codes and the exact metrics that tripped it. Vague holds burn weeks.
