Payment Retry
Users can set the cadence and parameters for automatic payment retry, allowing you to more quickly process accounts and receive revenue after payment errors. Payment retry schedules are executed via the scheduler and can be configured based on the minimum failed payment amount, number of retries, and duration between retries. Schedules are also associated with payment retry reason code groups, allowing quick and easy auditing of the errors behind failed payments.
