LiveAgent提供可定制的催款邮件模板,帮助企业提醒客户更新付款信息,降低退订率。平台支持多渠道客户服务,提升服务效率和满意度,并提供14天免费试用。
付款失败是所有SaaS企业和以订阅为基础的企业不得不面对的现实,付款失败占企业经常性平均月收入的9%。幸运的是,多数失败的付款是无意的,客户在收到催款邮件前甚至都没有意识到发生了什么。 虽然付款失败对于您的团队和客户来说都是不愉快的经历,但是您可以使用措辞良好的催款邮件有效避免无意识的失败付款churn并挽回损失的收入。当您在书写催款邮件和向客户发送邮件时需要牢记以下要点,我们还列举了以现实案例为基础的现成催款邮件模板。
催款邮件是SaaS企业和以订阅为基础的企业向客户发送的一种事务性邮件(往往是一系列邮件),通知客户付款相关事项,例如未能支付订阅费用、信用卡过期或付款延迟等。这些邮件一般会提醒用户他们的账户状态,提供更新付款信息和付款方式的选项,以便用户继续使用产品或服务。催款邮件能够有效降低客户流失率,提高留存率。
哪怕您的催款邮件是完全自动的,也可以由真实的人发送,这样会令邮件看起来更有亲切感和信任感,增加邮件的关注度。研究显示,使用个人姓名而不是通用电子邮件地址或公司名称的邮件能够提升35%的开信率。
确保您发送催款邮件的地址能够接收客户回复,如果他们遇到问题或需要询问时可以直接回复。“请勿回复”的地址只能令顾客感到更加困惑,因为他们不能在需要时与您联系。
与其简单通知客户付款失败并要求他们更新信用卡信息,不如增加一些紧迫感。提醒他们如果没有采取相应行动可能导致的后果(例如无法登陆账户和历史数据,服务终端等)。
明确的行动指示是催款邮件中最重要的部分。添加直接链接,客户无需打开新窗口、无需登录或点击其它按钮就能更新付款信息。确保客户了解,如果没有付款,他们的账户还有多长时间就会被停用。
根据您的定价模型,您可以向客户提供注销账户的替代选择,例如在客户更新付款信息前降级为免费方案,或提供特殊折扣继续使用您的服务。当付款失败的原因是资金不足时,这一替代选择较为有利。

Your card is stolen, lost, or was eaten by your dog

Just a friendly heads up that your [Product/ Service] subscription has been officially paused until you update your payment details with us.

However, you can avoid all that by taking 30 seconds to update your details: billing link.

Many business owners feel uncomfortable when they have to send out dunning emails to their customers. However, since most failed payments typically happen by accident (e.g., due to credit card expiry), dunning emails can genuinely be efficient in helping businesses recover failed payments and reduce involuntary churn.
As transactional emails can often get overlooked, sending a single dunning email is one of the biggest mistakes you can make. If you want to recover more revenue from failed payments, consider sending out a series of emails instead of a single message. It’s recommended to send at least three follow-up emails for a month, each with a slightly different text.
Since technologies like credit card retries have come into use, many failed payments can be automatically handled without your team ever needing to bother your customers with pre-dunning messages. In that case, pre-dunning emails are not only providing zero-value but can also be irritating for your customers and, therefore, should be avoided.
