Comparison
A ProsperStack alternative for Stripe subscriptions
ProsperStack and AcornRetain are after the same job: catch the subscriber at the cancel button, ask why, and make one offer worth staying for. The differences are in pricing shape, breadth, and how much of the decision happens on your servers rather than in the browser.
What you keep
Everything below works the same way here as it does in ProsperStack. If you are already running a cancel flow, this is the part you are not giving up.
- A no-code cancel flow builder with branching questions and targeted offers.
- Discounts, pauses, plan changes, and trial extensions, applied to the Stripe subscription for you.
- Segmenting which subscribers see which offer.
- Reporting on saves, cancel reasons, and the revenue those saves represent.
Where AcornRetain differs
Flat pricing, not revenue-scaled
One monthly fee for unlimited live sessions, regardless of how much MRR runs through the flow. Nothing about your growth changes the invoice.
Unlimited apps included
Every product you run gets its own flow, key, and Stripe connection on the same account and the same bill. Multi-product teams are the case we optimised for, not an upsell.
A deliberately smaller surface
Fewer integrations, fewer channels, fewer places to configure something wrong. If your evaluation checklist is long, ours will look short, and some of what is missing will matter to you.
Eligibility decided on our servers
Cooldowns and caps are checked against the grants a subscriber has actually received, on our side, before anything is applied to Stripe. Nothing a determined subscriber does in devtools turns into a discount.
When ProsperStack is the better choice
If you need billing providers other than Stripe, a long list of third-party integrations, or features beyond the cancel flow itself, the more established tool will fit your checklist better than ours.
What switching involves
Switching means installing our snippet in place of theirs and rebuilding your flow in our dashboard. Build it in Test mode first: Test sessions are unlimited on every plan, so you can run the whole flow end to end before any live subscriber sees it.
The setup guide covers the whole path, and support will look at your existing flow with you if you would rather not rebuild it from a blank page.
Try it before you switch anything.
Test mode is unlimited on every plan, so you can run the whole flow against real subscriptions before a live subscriber sees it.
