Multiple customer records with one email

More than one customer record can use the same email address. Each record has a unique customer ID and keeps its own subscriptions, payment methods, and billing details. If a customer sees more than one record in the portal, they should select the record connected to the subscription they want to manage.

How Kelviq chooses a payment method

When a subscription renews, Kelviq first charges the payment method selected when the subscription was created. If that payment method fails because it has expired, has insufficient funds, or cannot be processed, Kelviq uses the saved default payment method as a fallback.

How customers pay a failed card invoice

If an automatic card payment fails, your customer gets an email with a link to pay the invoice. They can also open Settings > Billing in the Customer Portal to add or update a payment method. Paying an invoice manually does not turn off automatic payments. The customer’s payment authorization remains active for future renewals. See Failed subscription payments for the card retry schedule.

How customers manage payment methods

  1. The customer opens Settings from the main menu and selects Billing.
  2. They select the customer record they want to update.
  3. They click Add Payment Method.
