What Happens When A Payment Fails?
If a payment fails, Stripe automatically retries it over the following days. If it is never recovered, dreamif.ai removes paid access.

While Stripe retries the payment:
- dreamif.ai warns you that billing needs attention (including a sidebar notice).
- You can update your payment method at any time.
- Your paid access stays active while retries are in progress.
If payment is never recovered#
If all retries fail, dreamif.ai removes paid access. Your account and data stay. You only lose access to paid features until billing is resolved.
What does not happen#
A failed payment does not delete your account or erase your existing information.
What to do#
- Open Settings > Billing.
- Click
Update payment methodand update your payment method in the Stripe portal. - Return to dreamif.ai and confirm your subscription is active again.
The sooner you fix the payment method, the less likely you are to lose paid access.
