Find what's leaking from
your Stripe
Stripe shows you MRR. Verilabs Audit finds what's hiding behind it — lifetime-deal cost burden, fraud BIN patterns, discounts that expired but kept applying, and failed payments that never got retried.
Real indie SaaS founders, real losses — posted publicly this year
"Sold 340 lifetime deals for $149 each. 18 months later I regret every one. LTD customers submit 3× more tickets than monthly subscribers. My NPS among LTD customers: 12. Among monthly subscribers: 54."
r/SaaS · December 2025
"Let a customer prepay for a year at a discount. They disputed the charge 11 months later. Lost $2,900 and the customer. Stripe's chargeback process is not designed for SaaS."
r/SaaS · April 2026
"Found out our free tier costs more to run than our paid tiers combined. Shutting it down tomorrow."

Stripe shows you charts. Verilabs Audit tells you what's leaking.
8 leak categories the audit catches
Every finding comes with a dollar amount and specific transaction IDs — not vague warnings.
Failed payments not retried
23 invoices last quarter had retries scheduled but no charge executed. Total at-risk: $4,140. Soft declines (insufficient funds) can recover with optimized retry timing. Hard declines (expired or stolen cards) won't recover without a new payment method — those need dunning.
Lifetime-deal cost overhang
Your 89 lifetime-deal customers generate 3× the support tickets of your paying subscribers and represent $0 in MRR. Annual support cost burden: $X,XXX.
Refund-fraud BIN patterns
11 refunds last month came from cards with the same 6-digit BIN range, signed up within 48 hours of each other, and all downloaded export files within hours of signup. Likely fraud ring.
Chargebacks filed late
3 customers disputed charges 8–11 months after subscribing. None opened support tickets first. Lost: $7,250. We generate the Stripe evidence package for rebuttal.
Free-tier cost overhang
Your free-tier users consume more compute than your paying tiers combined. Top 5 free users cost ~$X/mo each. Worth a usage-based gating rule.
Subscriptions stuck in 'active'
12 subscriptions show 'active' status but haven't been invoiced in >60 days. $X,XXX in expected revenue not landing in your bank account.
Discounts that became permanent
47 customers are still on a 'first 3 months 50% off' coupon that should have expired 8 months ago. Recovery if reverted: $X,XXX/mo.
Churn cohorts that hide in aggregates
Your November 2025 acquisition cohort retained at 23% to month 4 — half your overall rate. The acquisition channel was [X]. Pause spend there.
Three steps. 10 minutes of your time.
