Butter Payments

Founded 2020

Recover failed subscription transactions using tailored machine learning retry strategies

You can use Butter Payments to recover failed subscription payments and stop involuntary customer churn. Instead of retrying failed card transactions in bulk batches, the system evaluates each transaction individually. It uses machine learning models trained on your business data to determine the optimal time and method to reattempt payment processing. You can connect it directly with your existing billing stack and payment gateways like Stripe or Recharge. Butter operates on a revenue-share model without retainer fees, helping you increase customer lifetime value and transaction authorization rates.
