Ignore the blended 2.06×. It reads low because 64% of customers and 70% of the spend were bought in the last seven weeks — before a single auto-bill could land. Nothing is wrong with the funnel; those cohorts just haven't been billed yet.

The move
1Build a day-20–28 save flow before the first charge — all the churn is at that one point.
2Step CAC to $12 in September, then $15 in October only if day-28 activation holds above 40%.
