PayPal Subscription Renewal Reminder
Proactive email reminders when subscriptions are about to renew or have failed to charge.
Nora tracks PayPal subscriptions and alerts customers 3 days before renewal, then notifies you if a payment fails. Reduces churn from forgotten cards and improves renewal rates.
Subscription churn is often due to forgotten card renewals or expired payment methods. This automation monitors PayPal subscriptions and, 3 days before a renewal date, sends the customer a friendly reminder: 'Your subscription renews on [date] for $[amount]. Review or update your payment method if needed.' The email includes a link to their PayPal subscription page where they can update their card or cancel if they prefer. If a renewal attempt fails (e.g., card declined), Nora immediately alerts the customer with the reason and a link to update their payment method, giving them a way to fix it without you reaching out. For your team, Nora sends a daily summary of failed renewals so you can follow up with high-value customers. Most subscription businesses see a 5–15% improvement in retention and a 20–30% reduction in churn-related support tickets.
