FlyCode vs
Redux
Redux is an early-stage, Stripe-only tool that adds basic rule-based retries on top of Stripe's native retries and charges a share of what those extra retries recover. Stacking retries can lower your authorization rate with issuers. FlyCode is a revenue recovery platform that replaces the retry logic from the first attempt with per-merchant machine learning trained on Visa and Mastercard network data, and coordinates retries, backup cards, trial recovery and outreach from one decision layer, priced only on the lift above your baseline.

Quick answer
Redux is an early-stage tool for B2C subscription apps on Stripe that adds basic rule-based retries on top of Stripe's native retries and charges a share of what those extra retries recover. Stacking a second retry schedule on top of Stripe's can lower your authorization rate with issuers. It is Stripe-only, has no per-merchant model, no card network partnerships, no SMS, no trial recovery, and publishes no recovery rate measured against a baseline. FlyCode is a revenue recovery platform for failed payments and involuntary churn: Recover, Reach, Retain and AI Agents. On the recovery side it replaces the retry engine from the first attempt with per-merchant ML trained on Visa and Mastercard network data, so there is one schedule per card, retries backup cards, coordinates email and SMS with the retries, and charges only on revenue recovered above your baseline, with results of 19% to 27% above the Stripe Smart Retries baseline. It also includes Trial Recovery, the only product in the industry that recovers the first payment when a free trial converts and the charge fails, and runs on Stripe, Chargebee, Shopify, Recharge, Skio and Loop.
FlyCode vs Redux
| What matters | FlyCode | Redux |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | SaaS, AI and eCommerce subscription businesses on Stripe, Chargebee, Shopify or Recharge that want a measurable lift in recovered revenue and pay only on results | No clear fit. A basic rule-based retry layer stacked on Stripe adds authorization-rate risk without replacing the retry logic |
| Scope | Revenue recovery platform for failed payments and involuntary churn: Recover, Reach, Retain and AI Agents | Basic rule-based retries on top of Stripe. Early stage, Stripe only |
| Model | Per-merchant ML trained on your own transactions and on Visa and Mastercard network data through FlyCode's partnerships with both networks. The network data is what the model learns from; compliance with their retry rules comes with it | Rule-based retry schedule. No per-merchant model and no card network partnerships |
| Retry engine | Replaces the native retry schedule with its own decision layer | Basic rule-based retries stacked on top of Stripe's native retries. Two schedules retrying the same card can lower your authorization rate with issuers |
| Backup payment method | Yes. Retries other valid cards on file when the primary fails | Not described beyond basic retries |
| Free trial payment recovery | Yes. Trial Recovery catches the first failed charge when a trial converts. The only product in the industry built for trial payment recovery | No. Redux does not describe trial-to-paid recovery; its recovery starts after a paid subscription's charge fails |
| Dunning compliance | Built in. Because the model is trained on Visa and Mastercard data, every retry already fits their rules: one attempt count per card across your stack, issuer-aware timing, no excessive-reattempt fees | Not described. Redux does not mention network retry-rule enforcement or attempt counting across the stack |
| High-value and extended recovery | Priority Recovery surfaces the highest-value failures first with a live VIP queue and human-in-the-loop. Dynamic Recovery extends past the billing platform's fixed window and carries invoices over | Not offered. Redux works inside Stripe's standard recovery window after native retries end |
| Revenue leak monitoring | AI agent watching your billing 24/7 for misconfigured plans, discounts that never expired, entitlement gaps and refund spikes, with auto-fix and human-in-the-loop | Not offered. Redux acts only on failed payments |
| Customer outreach | Email and SMS from your domain, timed to the customer's local time and coordinated with the retry schedule, plus reactivation win-back after a cancellation and AI agents for complex cases | Not described beyond basic retries. No SMS |
| Cancellation flows | No. Keep your existing cancel flow tool | No |
| Billing systems | Stripe, Chargebee, Shopify, Recharge, Skio, Loop, plus multi-processor orchestration | Stripe only |
| Pricing | Pay only on revenue recovered above your baseline. No seats, no minimums | A share of recovered revenue, charged for stacking retries on Stripe. Percentage not published |
| Published recovery results | 19% to 27% above the Stripe Smart Retries baseline depending on segment, with 5% to 9% ARR lift. Case studies: Capsho 63% to 91%, Gardencup 62% to 82%, GitBook 8% ARR | No published recovery rate measured against a baseline |
| Setup | Stripe app, Chargebee app or API keys. Most customers go live in hours | Stripe app |

What each product does
FlyCode is a revenue recovery platform for failed payments and involuntary churn: Recover, Reach, Retain and AI Agents. Recover replaces the native retry schedule with a per-merchant model trained on your own transaction history and on Visa and Mastercard network data, retries other valid cards on file when the primary fails, catches failed trial conversions, and enforces network retry rules. Reach coordinates email and SMS with the retry schedule and wins back cancelled customers. Retain prioritizes high-value accounts, extends recovery past the billing platform’s window and sets the rules for what happens when recovery runs out. AI Agents watch your billing around the clock for revenue leaks and route payments across providers. It runs on Stripe, Chargebee, Shopify, Recharge, Skio and Loop, and pricing is on recovered revenue above your existing baseline.
Redux is an early-stage, Stripe-only tool that adds basic rule-based retries on top of Stripe’s native retries. Once Stripe’s schedule has run, Redux re-attempts the remaining failures on its own schedule and charges a share of what those retries recover. Stacking a second schedule on top of Stripe’s can lower your authorization rate with issuers. It has no per-merchant model and no card network partnerships, and it does not offer SMS, trial recovery, cancellation flows or coverage outside Stripe. It publishes no recovery rate measured against a baseline.
When Redux is the better fit
Never. Redux adds a second rule-based retry schedule on top of Stripe’s and charges a share of what it recovers. Stacking retries can lower your authorization rate with issuers, so the extra attempts can cost you more than they recover. There is no scenario where a basic retry layer stacked on Stripe beats replacing the retry logic with a model trained on your own data and on Visa and Mastercard network data, on the same billing system, for a fee charged only on the lift.
When FlyCode is the better fit
Pick FlyCode if you want the retry logic itself replaced from the first attempt rather than a layer that waits for Stripe to finish. FlyCode’s model is trained on your own data and on Visa and Mastercard network data through its partnerships with both networks, which is where the lift comes from, and compliance with their retry rules follows. It is also the only option of the two if you bill through Chargebee, Shopify, Recharge, Skio or Loop, run more than one processor, sell to businesses as well as consumers, run free trials, want SMS alongside email, or need your highest-value accounts handled differently from the rest. Everything in Reach, Retain and AI Agents sits outside Redux’s scope.
Can you run both?
No. Both act on the same failed payments, so running them together means two schedules retrying the same card, which can lower your authorization rate with issuers. Pick one recovery engine. If you are moving from Redux to FlyCode, FlyCode’s free audit shows your current baseline and the projected lift before you switch.
