Success+

Success+ enables you to collect initially failed payments automatically. (Currently only available for BACS payments) It uses an intelligent retry feature, which automatically retries failed payments only where the likelihood of success is high. The payment recovery schedule is intelligently adapted to match when it is best for each customer, by calculating the best time to retry a payment and tracking which payments were successful. Therefore, you are reducing lost revenue from failed payments and cutting the human cost, it would normally take to intervene as well as recover the failed payments.

On your GoCardless dashboard in the menu, click on Success+, to see the Success+ page.
