Automatically update your customers' card details

What is an Account Updater?

An Account Updater automatically updates the payment information of customers. It is especially valuable for businesses that rely on recurring payments or subscriptions.

When a customer's credit or debit card information changes due to factors like card expiration or card replacement, the Account Updater service checks for outdated card data and automatically replaces it with the most current information, including the new card number, expiration date, and security code.

This minimizes payment declines, ensures seamless billing, and reduces customer disruptions, ultimately improving revenue and customer satisfaction by keeping payment information up-to-date.

How does it all work?

The problem

Credit cards expire, get lost, or get replaced

In today's digital landscape, credit cards can pose a headache for businesses. They expire, go missing, or get replaced, and when that happens, it can disrupt the flow of payments and create a hassle for both customers and companies.

These disruptions can lead to declined transactions, service interruptions, and frustrated customers, all of which can have a significant impact on a business's revenue, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency.

Moreover, these card-related challenges can strain customer relationships as recurring payment disruptions may result in customer churn and lost revenue. The manual effort and time required for customers to update their payment information can be burdensome for both clients and the company's support staff.
