Setting up Retain Reactivations

Retain can help win back your churned customers with reactivations.

Target already churned customers with variable discounts to have them reactivate their subscriptions in 1-click.

Email us:

  1. How much of a discount you want to offer (i.e., 50%) 
  2. How long you want to offer this discount for (i.e., 3 months) 
  3. Do you want us to reference a specific product name? (i.e., Retain)
  4. What kind of product update do you want to share with your customers? (i.e., “We are now able to combat both voluntary and delinquent churn.”) — It is important to reiterate and reinforce your value proposition to churned customers
  5. Do you want us to go after both voluntary and delinquent churn customers?
  6. If you are on Stripe, you'll want to listen to metadata": { pw_reactivated": "True" } webhook from inside customer.subscription.created to know when a customer is reactivated.
  7. If you are on Recurly, you'll receive a reactivated_account_notification webhook call from Recurly

Contact support@profitwell.zendesk.com with this information if you're not already in touch with one of our team members.

That’s it! We’ll then be able to provide your customers with seamless 1-click UX to reactivate their subscription.

  • Voluntary churn customers 60 days post-churn

We're happy to experiment with different timeframes to figure out what works best for your business. Additionally, we only go after users that churn monthly subscriptions.
