Stunning alternative
Revnio vs Stunning
Stunning is failed subscription payment recovery software for Stripe, with an optional managed recovery service. Revnio is automated failed-payment recovery for SaaS on Stripe, Chargebee and Paddle, with email and WhatsApp outreach (SMS coming soon) at a flat monthly price. Here is how they compare, including when Stunning is the better choice.
About Stunning
Stunning focuses on Stripe. It sends up to eight dunning emails and up to eight SMS on Stripe, shows in-app notices, posts Slack alerts, and runs a win-back sequence after cancellation that reactivates the subscription when the customer pays. Before cards expire it tries an automatic card update, then warns customers at 30, 15 and 7 days.
Foxy and Subbly are supported with fewer features. For teams that want it done for them, Stunning also sells a Managed Recovery service.

Switching to Revnio
Connecting takes a few minutes: paste a restricted Stripe key, or an API key for Chargebee or Paddle. Revnio sets up the webhook in your account, syncs your customers, subscriptions and invoices, and starts recovery on new failed payments. To avoid customers getting two sets of reminders, turn off the other tool's emails for the same failures once Revnio is live. Our dunning email templates and decline code guide help you set up the sequence.
