Built for Commerce7 wine clubs

Recover failed payments
with SMS.

Fully managed SMS recovery for Commerce7 wine clubs. We build it, run it, and monitor it — your team doesn't touch a thing. Book a pilot call to run it free for your next billing cycle.

from involuntary churn alone
The gap

Email alone isn't
recovering your members.

Commerce7 retries cards for 14 days and sends decline emails. The problem isn't the retry window, it's the channel. Industry data puts total wine club churn at 22.5% annually — and up to 40% of that is involuntary. For a 1,500-member club at $300 a shipment, that's over $40,000 walking out the door every cycle for a reason that had nothing to do with how much they love the wine.

Without SMS recovery

Billing fires. Failed payments sit in Commerce7.
Days 1–14
Decline emails go out. Most go unread.
Day 14
Order archives. Membership lapses. Revenue is gone, and they probably didn't mean to leave.
The pilot flow

Failed Payment Recovery.
Zero manual work.

Runs automatically in the background from the moment a payment fails. Your team doesn't configure, monitor, or touch anything.

01
Failed Payment Recovery
Triggers the moment a shipment payment fails. Checks payment status before every message so no one gets an unnecessary text. Two-message sequence, 48 hours apart. High-value members who still haven't recovered get a direct alert to your team. Commerce7 keeps retrying — we make sure your members actually see it.
Message 1 — on failure
Hi {{First Name}}, it's the team at [Winery Name]. Your wine club payment for the upcoming shipment didn't go through. Update your card here to keep your membership active: {{Payment Link}} | Reply STOP to opt out.
Message 2 — 48 hours later
Hi {{First Name}}, just a friendly follow-up from [Winery Name]. Your shipment is still on hold. Update your payment to keep your membership: {{Payment Link}} | Reply STOP to opt out.

Templates approved by you before anything goes live. Wording and tone are entirely your call.

After the pilot — the full platform

02
Signup Abandonment Recovery
Catches visitors who start your wine club signup but don't finish. Runs year-round. Three sequences per year, one month apart. Requires an SMS opt-in checkbox on your form, which we set up.
03
Wine Selection Reminder
Scheduled bulk SMS before each shipment cycle prompting members to make their wine selections. Cross-references opt-outs automatically before sending.
04
Bottle Purchase Abandonment
Cart abandonment webhook fires a recovery sequence for online bottle purchases. Three sequences per year, shared cap with Signup Abandonment so members are never over-messaged.
