Midas, your AI recovery agent, **silently retries the charge at the right moment** and reports back to you. On autopilot, without bothering a single customer.

Nobody tells you. Yet on most stores, 15 to 25% of those failed payments are recoverable. ### Cards that fail for nothing Limit reached on billing day, temporarily blocked card, insufficient funds on a Monday: failures that would go through just fine 3 days later. WooCommerce does not retry at the right moment. ### Forgotten renewals The WordPress scheduler crashes silently: active subscriptions simply never get charged. Your store thinks everything is fine while your recurring revenue melts away. ### Customers lost for no reason A subscriber whose payment fails is not an unhappy customer: they do not even know it failed. Letting them go means losing revenue that wanted to stay. How it works ## Five recovery engines, one agent Midas reads the real reason behind each failure (the bank's exact message) and picks the right tactic. Never hammering cards, never spamming customers. 1 ### Silent retry It retries the card already on file, at the moment it is most likely to go through. The customer sees nothing, except that their subscription keeps running. 2 ### Orphan renewals It detects the subscriptions WooCommerce forgot to charge (crashed cycles, missing dates) and gets the machine running again. 3 ### Reading bank declines Insufficient funds? It waits and retries. Expired card or a dispute? It closes the case without hammering. Every decline code has its own tactic. 4 ### Switch to automatic Manual-payment subscriptions that have a valid card on file are switched to automatic billing. WooCommerce never does this on its own. 5 ### 3D Secure last resort When the bank requires authentication, and only if you enable it, it sends the customer a secure payment link. That is the only case where the customer is contacted. 6 ### Mission reports Every recovered euro is tracked: what, when, how. You open the dashboard, you see what it brought back. That is it. ## Start by seeing what can be recovered Before recovering anything, Midas shows you the numbers: it scans your last 60 days and computes, in read-only mode, how much money is sleeping in your failed payments. Without charging anything, without touching your store. The audit is free and unlimited, even without a subscription. You decide afterwards, with the numbers in hand. - The recoverable amount, in figures: cash and monthly subscription revenue - A diagnosis for each failing subscription (the real bank reason) - Strictly read-only: no charge, no email, no change - Activates in 1 click from the Agents page of your dashboard **Audit · read-only**147 subscriptions scanned over 60 days23 payments recoverable right now€1,870Recurring revenue that can be reactivated€312/mo8 permanently invalid cards (nothing to try)Nothing was charged**Preview only**It touches money: it is packed with safeguards ## Built to never put you at risk ### Anti double-charge A shared memory of attempts guarantees a payment already retried is never retried twice. Anti-collision windows with WooCommerce, locks, daily safety caps. ### Chargeback protection It watches your Stripe account's dispute rate. If it approaches the critical threshold, Midas pauses itself to protect your account, and tells you what to do. ### Emergency stop One button stops everything, instantly. And until you switch the autopilot on, Midas stays read-only: nothing goes out without your explicit decision. Pricing ## One single plan, paid for by what it recovers On most subscription stores, a single recovered payment per month pays for the agent. Everything else is revenue found again. 14-day trial includedRecovery on autopilot99 € / monthIncl. tax · no commitment · unlimited free audit without a subscription- Real recovery 24/7: all 5 engines, on autopilot - Silent retries: your customers get zero emails - Built-in safeguards: anti double-charge, caps, emergency stop - Chargeback protection with automatic pause - Mission reports: every recovered euro, tracked [Start the 14-day trial](/build-my-ai-team/)Requires WooCommerce · No card for the trial · You keep all the recovered moneyFrequently asked questions ## Everything people ask us How much can I expect to recover? On most stores, 15 to 25% of failed payments are recoverable within 60 days (conservative assumptions, never a guarantee: every store is different). That is exactly what the free audit computes for you, read-only, before any commitment. Will my customers receive dunning emails? No. The core of Midas is silent: it retries the card already on file, without contacting anyone. The only exception is the 3D Secure channel (a secure payment link), as a last resort, and only if you enable it yourself. Can it charge a customer twice? No. A memory of attempts, anti-collision windows with WooCommerce, locks and daily caps prevent any double charge. And if it detects a risk on your Stripe account (rising dispute rate), it pauses itself. How is it different from Aria? Aria runs your store day to day from a chat: customer support, catalog, pricing, campaigns, subscriptions. Midas has a single job: recovering the money from failed payments, on autopilot. One job = one agent. They work great together, each in its place. What happens when the trial ends? All the money recovered during the trial stays yours, obviously: it is in your store. The read-only audit stays free and unlimited. For Midas to keep recovering on autopilot, you move to the subscription, no commitment, stoppable whenever you want. What do I need to use it? A WooCommerce store (with WooCommerce Subscriptions for the subscription side) and the Rank Press plugin. No API key, no account to create: AI is included and hosted by Rank Press. You activate Midas from the Agents page, it gets to work. ## Stop losing money you already earned Activate Midas, run the free audit, and see in 2 minutes how much your store can recover. 14 days of full trial, no credit card.
