Holdfast

Automatic Payment Recovery for SaaS & Creators

Every failed payment is money you've already earned. Holdfast automatically retries failed charges, sends smart dunning sequences, and recovers subscriptions—wired directly into Stripe.

Stop leaving money on the table. Holdfast helps you recover up to 62% of failed payments by automating the entire recovery process from detection to notification.

How it works

Holdfast simplifies payment recovery with a three-step automated workflow:

1. Connect Stripe: Holdfast listens for payment_intent.payment_failed and invoice.payment_failed events in real-time. Setup takes only 2 minutes.
2. Smart retry + dunning: An intelligent retry schedule plus automated email sequences via Resend are timed to maximize recovery rates.
3. Revenue recovered: Failed subscriptions are saved. A live dashboard shows your recovery rate, MRR rescued, and dunning performance.

Stop the leak in your revenue stream with these powerful features:
