2 · Lever 1 — Expiring Credits

Why it Works

Loss aversion: users will fight harder to keep value they already “own” than to gain something new.

SOP (15‑Minute Setup)

  1. Tokenize Deliverables – Convert your service units into credits (e.g., 1 credit = 1 AI batch).
  2. Display Balance Banner – Inject JS snippet to surface credit bank on every account page.[Screenshot placeholder: credit banner]
  3. Cancel‑Flow Alert – Modal headline: “You’ll lose {{credit_balance}} credits if you leave today.”
  4. Zapier Flow – Trigger: user clicks “cancel” → Action: email ‘credit reminder’ → Delay: 24 h → If still active, tag as “Churn saved”.[Zapier template link]
  5. One‑Click Top‑Up Offer – Add Stripe Checkout link for discounted credit pack.
