How Whitehorse Automated Animal Renewals and Cut Non-Payment from 10% to 7%

Only 12–14% of Whitehorse's animals were registered under the old paper-based renewal process. See how self-service QR renewals, auto-reconciliation and set-and-forget payments turned that around in a single renewal cycle — and what it freed up for staff.

What you will learn

Auto-renewal sign-ups

Residents opted into set-and-forget registration so next year's renewal is guaranteed, with nothing to remember.

Non-payment down from 10% to 7.3

Automated reminders and repair links mean more residents pay on time, without a single door-knock.

Reconciliation fully automated

Payments auto-reconcile through BPOINT into Pathway, freeing staff for data quality, education and pet reunification.
