About This Automation

Membership and class-pack billing involves tracking renewals, failed payments, and pack balances across multiple systems. Manually reconciling these details each week is time consuming and prone to errors that delay revenue and frustrate members.

An automated version scans for upcoming renewals and failed charges, retries payments, and keeps balances current without manual effort. It also sends expiry reminders and reconciles revenue automatically, reducing errors and freeing staff time.

Key features:
Scans for upcoming renewals and failed charges automatically
Retries eligible declined payments without manual intervention
Keeps class-pack balances updated in real time
Sends expiry reminder emails before a pack runs out
Matches settled payouts against accounting entries automatically
Posts a daily revenue summary to the team
