Every week a chunk of debits bounce, the software retries them, and about half get fixed. Keptly works the other half, in your school’s voice, then has the cancellation conversation properly when a family asks to leave.
For martial arts schools billing A$50,000 or more a month on recurring direct debit or card. You see your number before you pay for anything, and the first 60 days are measured against a holdout, with the guarantee settled at day 90.
How many members that is depends on your fee: at gym prices about 600, at wellness-club prices about 200. Class packs and term fees do not count.
Three jobs
Three jobs, from inside the platform you already run.
/ 01
Recovery
5 touches, 14 days
Every failed payment gets a short sequence in your voice with a one-tap fix, each touch only if the last got no reply and the payment is still open. Payment messages state a fact and make no offer. Never a fee, never a threat. Stops on hardship or any request to stop.
/ 02
Saves
Processed the day they ask
One question, one real alternative in a fixed order: a pause first, then a cheaper plan or a change of times, then a fix. Never a ladder, never a second offer. Nobody has to answer anything to leave.
/ 03
Return
3 messages over 3 weeks
To members lapsed one to six months, from your club, with an unsubscribe on every one. The offer is whatever you approve. Nobody lapsed more than 12 months ago is contacted.
Fixed, invoiced when the first missed payment comes back through a Keptly link. If nothing comes back in the first 14 days there is no invoice and the proof stops.
Keep, monthly
from A$1,400
By what you bill a month. Recovery, Saves and Return. Month to month.
Charged to your members
A$0
Billers and platforms reach “no recovery, no fee” by charging the member A$15 to 30 a failure. Keptly never does.
None yet in Australia, and I won’t pretend otherwise. That’s why the first 60 days are measured against a holdout, with the guarantee settled at day 90, so you’re not taking my word for anything. If you’d rather wait for a case study, say so and I’ll send it when I have one.

The audit reads your last 90 days of payments in your browser, with the internet off, and shows the members whose last payment failed and was never fixed.
