Dunlo vs Recurflux

Recurflux is a broader retention platform covering failed payments, smart retries, card health, cancellation flows, win-back, checkout recovery, and mobile recovery through RevenueCat. Dunlo is intentionally smaller: a Stripe-first tool for founders who want failed payment recovery without configuring a full retention suite.

Dunlo fit

You are Stripe-first and failed payments are the leak you want to fix first.

You prefer a focused tool over a retention platform with many flows.
