Problem

What data would you look at first if retention dropped for a core payments product?

Explain how you would validate that the decline is real, define the retention metric precisely, and identify whether the issue is concentrated in a customer cohort, payment workflow, product surface, or operational experience.

State the first data sources and segmentations you would inspect.
Explain how you would distinguish measurement problems from a genuine retention decline.
Describe the first hypotheses you would test and the actions you would recommend.

Available data includes customer accounts, payment transactions, product events, support contacts, incidents, and cohort-level retention history.
