Involuntary churn
Overview

Why WhatsApp is the only channel that fixes involuntary churn

60–70% of subscription churn is involuntary — expired card, insufficient balance, OTP friction. Email dunning recovers 8–15%. WhatsApp dunning recovers 30–45% — same-day, with one tap.

The 30/7/1-day reminder cadence pre-empts most failures. The day-0 dunning template catches the rest with a fresh Razorpay/Stripe link.

LandinChat fires the reminders automatically based on Stripe/Razorpay subscription webhooks — works for gyms, SaaS, OTT, magazines, coaching, society maintenance, insurance.
