What is the Failed Payment Report?
The 'Failed Payment' report is a revenue report that shows you all of the failed card payments from your client's memberships, which can be exported into a CSV-formatted report for use in spreadsheet apps.
Navigating to the Failed Payment Report
To navigate the 'Failed Payment' report from the dashboard follow these steps;
- Click on the 'Reports' icon on the left side of the screen
- Click on the 'Failed Payments' report
What happens when a clients payment fails
If a clients' recurring 'Glofox Payment' (stripe card payments) fails on the first attempt, Glofox will attempt to take the payment three more times over the coming days making it four attempts in total to take payment.
After the first failed payment, the client will not be allowed to use the membership they are on to book until a successful payment has been made.
If the fourth and final attempt to take payment is unsuccessful, the client's membership will not be updated. Glofox will then try to take the next payment in the subscription cycle.
You can retry the failed payment manually or forgive the failed payment using the 'Retry' or 'Write Off' buttons on the right-hand side of the failed payment within 'Failed Reports' on the 'Report List' tab in 'Reports'. To see the 'Retry' and 'Write Off' buttons click the arrow on the right of the payment;
Please note;
If the clients' payment fails on a once-off payment for a service or product, you will be notified with a pop up to say the payment has failed. These types of failed payments will not show up in the 'Failed Payment' report.
Understanding the Failed Payment Report
