Payments on Fire™
Episode 303 - Fanning the Flames: Every Payment, Every Environment, All at Once
In 2025, Glenbrook's Drew Edmond hosted a series on payments performance optimization - how merchants get more good transactions approved and lose fewer customers to failed payments. Since then, Drew has spent most of his time inside subscription businesses doing exactly that work. This episode is an accumulation of what he has learned about how optimization actually works today. And here's the short version - for subscription payments and for subscription businesses, an individual transaction success depends on a lot more than just the payment. Tune in as Drew outlines a data-forward approach that spans every environment a payment touches, highlighted by clips from previous guests from the payments performance optimization series.
