Automated Splitit Failed Installment Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens the Splitit merchant dashboard, checks for installment charges that failed on a customer's card, archives the failure report to Google Drive, and texts your billing team through Twilio with the order and amount so it gets a same-day follow-up.

In short

How do I get alerted about failed Splitit installment payments?

WebRun checks your Splitit merchant dashboard every morning for installment charges that failed on a customer's card, archives the failure report to Google Drive, and texts your billing team through Twilio with the order and amount. It never retries the charge or refunds the customer itself, so failed installments get a same-day follow-up.

  • Failed installments get a same-day follow-up instead of stacking up
  • Every failure is documented before the record ages out
  • Billing hears about it by text instead of checking the dashboard daily

Built for merchants using Splitit · ecommerce billing teams · retail finance operations · collections teams

Questions, answered

Will WebRun retry the charge or refund the customer itself?

No. WebRun never sends a payment, issues a refund, or transfers funds on its own. It only flags the failed installment and texts your billing team, leaving any retry or refund for a human to action.

Who receives the Twilio text about a failed installment?

Your internal billing team, not the customer. WebRun never texts or contacts the customer on its own.

Does it report the same failure twice?

No. Each morning's report only covers new failures since the last run, appended to the existing month's archive in Google Drive.
