The Customers in Payment Failure report surfaces customers in payment failure.

This report is useful for:

  • Finding customers with a failed membership renewal or a failed penalty fee


Pulling Up the Report

Navigate to Reports > Operations > Customers in Payment Failure.

Specify the time frame from the date picker.

The Date filter refers to the date of the failed payment.

Apply any additional filters.

  • Failure type – filter to see failed membership renewals or failed penalty fees

  • Location

  • Membership Status – If a membership is canceled or terminated, it is possible that the customer still owes outstanding penalty fees.

Click Generate Report and, if necessary, Export the report.


Understanding the Report

The Customers in Payment Failure report includes:

  • Failure date – the date that the payment was unable to be processed

  • Customer ID – unique customer identifier

  • Customer email

  • Customer phone number

  • Failure type

  • Membership status – current status of the associated membership

  • Amount owed – the amount the customer owes for this particular failed payment. If the customer has multiple failed payments, each failed payment will appear as its own line item

  • Location

The best practice is to follow up on failed payments daily so that you can capture failed payments. Once the failed payment has been reconciled, the failure no longer appears in the report.
