The problem
If you run a SaaS on Stripe, around 9% of your MRR is silently leaking every month. Cards expire. Banks decline. Customers don't notice.
Stripe retries the charge a few times, but it doesn't email your customers. It doesn't warn them their card is about to expire. And by the time you notice, they've already churned.
The existing solutions are expensive
I looked at the options:
- Churn Buster: $249/mo minimum
- Baremetrics Recover: $158/mo
- Stunning: opaque MRR-based pricing
For an indie founder doing $5-25K MRR, spending $150-250/mo on dunning feels wrong. The ROI math works, but the cash flow doesn't.
So I built Revenudge
Revenudge does three things:
1. Pre-dunning alerts - Detects cards expiring in 30/14/7 days and emails your customers BEFORE the payment fails. This is the killer feature. Stripe doesn't do this.
2. Recovery email sequences - When a payment does fail, sends 3 branded emails (Day 1, 3, 7) with a one-click card update link. Your logo, your colors, your brand.
3. Recovery dashboard - Track MRR at risk, recovered revenue, recovery rate, email open/click rates. Know exactly how much money you're saving.
