Repeat Care

Reminders, repeat baskets and continuity of care

Repeat Care is the operating layer: the treatment calendar for every animal in the home, prompts timed before a dose falls due, and a consolidated repeat basket. Bundled recurring commercial plans sit separately on Subscriptions.

Programme design

What the model would actually do

Each feature exists to remove a specific reason owners lapse.

Pet profiles

Species, age, weight band, lifestyle and sensitivities, so the right format and dose band is offered every time.

Treatment schedule

One shared calendar across the household, showing what is due, what has lapsed and what can be combined.

Smart reminders

Prompts timed to the treatment interval and delivery lead time, sent through the owner's preferred channel.

Repeat basket

Items consolidated into a single scheduled despatch, reducing packaging, postage and forgotten doses.

Multi-pet households

Household-level parasite planning, because treating one animal rarely resolves an infestation.

Pause, change, cancel

Self-service control at any point. Retention should come from usefulness, never from friction.

How this differs from Subscriptions

Continuity here, commercial plans there

The two are designed to work together rather than duplicate each other.

Investor callout

Recurring behaviour is the commercial engine

Preventative treatments, supplements and chronic medication generate naturally repeating demand. A programme model converts that into forecastable order flow, materially better retention, and compliant first-party data on species, age and household composition that improves every subsequent offer.

Convenience is the differentiator that owners actually pay for: they are not seeking a shopping experience, they are seeking not to think about it.

Where the value accrues

  • Higher repeat rate and longer customer life
  • Lower blended acquisition cost across a household
  • Predictable demand supporting purchasing and stock planning
  • Cross-sell into nutrition, wellness and services
  • Data foundations for lifecycle marketing
