Redux is one of those tools that does exactly what it promises without needing any engineering resources for setup. After plugging it into Stripe, it immediately started catching payments that the native retry logic was simply missing. We chose Redux because we’re a B2C brand and that’s where they specialize. AI-driven retries, combined with smart recovery emails and magic card update links, makes a noticeable difference (we’re seeing ~19% lift above Stripe's recovery rate). Also, the performance-based pricing is a huge plus since we only pay when Redux improves our recovery rate above Stripe’s baseline. It’s a low-risk way to recover revenue that would otherwise be lost to involuntary churn.
Redux pays for itself many times over. Their AI retry system consistently recovers payments that Stripe's built-in retries miss, and the performance-based model means we only pay a percentage of what they actually recover above baseline. It's pure upside. What really stands out is how hands-off it is. Once connected, it just runs. The recovery emails go out at the right time in the customer's timezone, the card update links work without requiring a login, and the retry logic adapts based on real data. We went from thinking "Stripe handles retries" to realizing how much we were actually losing.
The results speak for themselves. We were already using Stripe Smart Retries and figured that was good enough. Redux proved us wrong within the first month. Their AI retry timing is legitimately smarter than just retrying on a schedule as it's learning when specific cards and banks are most likely to approve.
The one-click card update links have been clutch too. Customers can fix a declined card in seconds without logging in or remembering a password, which removes a lot of friction from the recovery process. Lastly the fact that it's performance-based pricing means there's zero risk to try it.
