PaySec + Konnektive CRM: Zero Processing Fees for Subscription and Direct Response Brands
How brands using Konnektive CRM are integrating PaySec's Network Offset Pricing to eliminate processing costs across complex subscription and continuity programs.
Konnektive CRM is the operations backbone for subscription-first and direct response brands — managing everything from order processing and rebill management to affiliate tracking and fulfillment orchestration. If you're running continuity offers, trial funnels, or high-volume direct response campaigns through Konnektive, processing fees are quietly eroding your LTV calculations.
PaySec integrates with Konnektive as a gateway provider, bringing Network Offset Pricing to every transaction type your CRM processes.
Why Processing Fees Matter More in Konnektive Operations
Konnektive merchants typically have specific characteristics that amplify processing fee impact:
- Recurring billing means fees compound across every rebill cycle for every active subscriber
- Trial-to-paid conversions mean paying fees on both the trial charge and the full-price conversion
- Multi-pay installment plans multiply transaction count (and fees) vs. single payments
- Upsell/cross-sell flows generate additional transactions beyond the initial order
- Gateway cascading for decline recovery means retry attempts also incur authorization fees
The Compound Fee Problem
| Active Subscribers | Monthly Rebill | Monthly Processing Cost (2.8%) | Annual Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2,000 | $59 | $3,304 | $39,648 |
| 10,000 | $59 | $16,520 | $198,240 |
| 25,000 | $59 | $41,300 | $495,600 |
| 50,000 | $59 | $82,600 | $991,200 |
At scale, processing fees on subscription programs approach seven figures annually. Network Offset Pricing eliminates this line item.
How PaySec Works Within Konnektive
Gateway Integration
PaySec is added to Konnektive as a payment gateway, sitting alongside or replacing your existing processors:
- Add PaySec gateway credentials in Konnektive's gateway management
- Configure routing rules (send all traffic to PaySec, or use load balancing/cascading)
- Enable Network Offset Pricing display on your checkout pages
- Konnektive processes orders and rebills through PaySec automatically
Dual Pricing on Checkout
Your Konnektive-powered checkout pages display both prices:
| Offer | Cash/ACH Price | Card Price |
|---|---|---|
| 30-Day Supply | $59.00 | $61.36 |
| 90-Day Supply | $147.00 | $152.88 |
| VIP Annual | $497.00 | $516.88 |
Customers choose their payment method knowing the exact amount before they submit.
Rebill Handling
Network Offset Pricing applies consistently to subscription rebills:
- Initial charge: card price applied
- Every subsequent rebill: same card price structure
- Customers are informed at signup that ongoing billing uses card pricing
- ACH subscribers maintain the lower price on every cycle
Decline Cascade Compatibility
PaySec works within Konnektive's cascade/retry logic:
- If PaySec declines a transaction, Konnektive can route to backup gateways per your cascade rules
- Retry attempts on PaySec maintain Network Offset Pricing
- Mid-cycle gateway changes preserve pricing consistency
LTV Impact Analysis
For subscription brands, eliminating processing fees directly increases customer lifetime value:
Example: $59/month subscription, 8-month average retention
| Metric | With Standard Processing | With PaySec NOP |
|---|---|---|
| LTV (gross) | $472.00 | $472.00 |
| Processing fees per customer | $13.22 (2.8% × 8 months) | $0 |
| Net LTV improvement | — | +$13.22/customer |
| At 10,000 active subscribers | — | +$132,200 annual profit |
This is pure bottom-line profit with no additional customer acquisition required.
