# Deferred subscriber removal for failed payments

Each month, around 50,000 subscriptions are canceled due to insufficient funds on the subscriber’s card.

\
To reduce this number, we introduced a deferred removal system: within seven days after a failed payment attempt, the service continues trying to charge the subscriber (previously, attempts were made only within one day).

\
Subscribers whose payments still do not go through are automatically removed from the channel only after the seven-day period ends.
