What it is

Automate scheduled card and ACH payments

Recurring billing payment processing helps businesses move ongoing customer payments out of manual follow-up and into a more predictable billing workflow. Paygasus gives teams a controlled way to manage scheduled collections, payment changes, failed payment activity, and recurring revenue visibility without rebuilding the process each billing cycle.

Recurring payment control

Manual billing can create missed charges, delayed collections, inconsistent follow-up, and extra work for finance or customer service teams. Paygasus gives businesses a more organized way to manage scheduled payment activity, recurring customer billing, plan updates, and accounts that need follow-up.

Operational value

Use recurring billing to reduce repetitive payment entry, support predictable collection workflows, automate customer notifications, and give teams clearer visibility into ongoing card and ACH payment activity.

  • Automate scheduled collections for approved card and ACH billing relationships.
  • Manage stored credentials, card updater needs, and customer payment changes.
  • Handle billing lifecycle events such as trials, upgrades, downgrades, and proration.
  • Use retry, dunning, and notification workflows when payments fail or require follow-up.
  • Review payment activity, recovery trends, churn signals, and recurring revenue reporting.
Recurring billing key features

Schedule, store, and recover

Set the schedule, hold the credentials, and catch the payments that fail before they become churn.

Scheduled Payment Collection

Card and ACH Billing

Set recurring billing schedules for approved card and ACH payments so teams can collect ongoing payments without manually initiating each transaction.

Stored Credentials and Plan Changes

Subscription Flexibility

Support repeat billing with stored payment credentials, automatic card updater support, plan upgrades, plan downgrades, proration, trial periods, and other subscription changes.

Failed Payment Recovery and Dunning

Payment Recovery Support

Use smart retry logic, dunning emails, and customer notification workflows for declined, missed, or unresolved recurring payments that need follow-up.

When a charge fails

The recovery cascade, before it becomes churn

A declined recurring charge doesn't have to mean a lost customer. Paygasus runs each failure through an escalating recovery path — and tells teams exactly which accounts still need a human.
