How it works

How the audit works

Two weeks from kickoff to readout. You spend about two hours in total; I do the rest.

  1. Day 1

    Kickoff, 30 minutes

    We agree on goals, markets and who joins the readout. I send an NDA and a data processing agreement before any data changes hands.

  2. Days 1–3

    Data

    You give me read-only access to your payment provider, or export the last 90 days of payments. Your contract or a recent invoice helps me check pricing.

  3. About 2 weeks

    Analysis

    I look at approval rates, decline reasons, retries and dunning, authentication, payment methods by market and your real cost per transaction.

  4. End of week 2

    Readout, 60 minutes

    Your founder, finance lead and an engineer get the report and the fix list, ranked by euro impact and effort.

  5. Optional

    Fix

    A Fix Sprint with your engineers, or your team works through the list alone.

  6. After 90 days

    Re-measure

    We compare the numbers with the starting point, so you see what the changes earned.

What you get

  • A written report with a "what good looks like" benchmark for each metric
  • A fix list with the yearly euro impact and the effort of every item
  • The 60-minute readout, recorded if you like

Your data

  • Read-only access or exports only; no write access, no full card numbers
  • An NDA and a data processing agreement before we start
  • Your data is deleted when the engagement ends, unless we agree otherwise in writing

Price and guarantee

A fixed price agreed up front, and you only pay in full if it pays off

Half at kickoff, half at the readout. If the audit finds less than three times its fee in yearly upside, you don't pay the second half.
