Failed Payment Recovery Agent with OpenClaw
Nobody logs into Stripe every morning looking for declines, which is why they go unnoticed for a fortnight and turn into cancellations. OpenClaw is a straightforward harness to point at exactly that gap, and it needs nothing running on your side to cover it. A charge fails, a draft appears, one line lands in the channel.
Watch it work before it's live
Run a staged conversation — no account needed. The agent handles it for real while a simulated world answers its tool calls; nothing touches real accounts, and nothing is actually sent.

Dunning policy
How you chase a failed payment - how soon you reach out, the tone, how many attempts before you stop, what happens to the account meanwhile, and which customers are too valuable to email without a person reading it first.
Business context
What your business sells and what the customer loses while the payment is unpaid, in your own words. The agent explains the situation from this and claims nothing beyond it.

Why OpenClaw for this agent
Covers the unwatched thing
The work is not difficult, it is simply work nobody has been assigned. A plain hosted agent is a reasonable answer to that particular shape of problem.
No infrastructure for dunning
Chasing failed payments normally means buying a dunning product or writing a cron job. Here it is a trigger and an agent that shuts down when the run ends.
Before you fork
Do I have to write a dunning policy before it works?
You should, because it is the only thing telling the agent how soon to reach out, how many attempts to make, and which customers are too valuable to email without a person reading first. Left thin, the drafts come out polite, generic and identical for every account. A few sentences in plain English is enough to start with.
