that's the only metric I track and try to improve. Currently about %10 of invoices are actually settled as payments. But this includes:
- people that created an order but dont have a Lightning wallet 
- people that decided the amount was too high, didnt want to pay
- order didnt go through for any other reason.

Ah interesting! A script running on a cron?

I guess having something to observe the channel state and issue payments would give a little more flexibility for failed payments?

Ask SN: LN Builders— How often does your node run in to liquidity issues?

almost never. Just opened a few good channels and then I send out the amount I make to my own node with a script every X hours/days.

My main problem is I have no idea to understand how often payments are failing to my node. It would be great if I could know when people try to pay and fail. But need to mostly depend on complaints.
