NEW METRIC: Net Revenue Retention

So many of you have been asking for it and we've finally released it! 

Net Revenue Retention (NRR) is a metric used to measure the growth or contraction of revenue from existing customers over a specific time frame. It gives insights into how well a company is retaining and expanding its revenue from its existing customer base. Net Revenue Retention considers the impact of both customer churn and upsells/expansions within a specific period. A value greater than 100% indicates revenue growth from existing customers, while a value less than 100% suggests contraction. Here is how it’s calculated:
NRR = 100% − ((Churned MRR - Expansion MRR) ÷ Starting MRR 30 days ago x 100)

Stay tuned for more releases!



Other Revenue Customer View

I've got some exciting news for you. We've listened to your feedback and added a new customer view to Other Revenue right here!


What is Other Revenue, you ask? Well, it's all about those one-off charges and payments that aren't associated with a subscription. We've now organized it by customer and payment, so you can easily track and manage those transactions. The best part is that this is just the beginning - you can expect to see an expansion of support for one-time charges and usage billing shortly. This development will provide customers with even more flexibility and options when it comes to managing their charges! 👀

It's not perfect! We are open to feedback and happy to talk about any bugs you may come across as we continue to build it out.

Retention Cohort Tables have a new home!

Have you ever wondered, "Where can I find those cohort tables?" Perhaps you didn't even know they existed! Our Retention Cohort Tables were previously tucked away within the User Churn and Revenue Churn Metrics, but now they have their own dedicated space! No need to worry; if you're accustomed to searching for them in their old spot, they're still available there too. Having both Retention Cohort Tables in one place will also allow you to easily compare the two. Interested in understanding how to use and interpret this data? Check out this article.

API - Proration Charge Fixes

Rolling out two improvements around proration in the API! 🎉

When a customer moves to a higher-priced tier - Proration items will be included on the next charge in their billing cycle. For example, a customer signs up for a $12/mo plan and upgrades to a $24/mo plan a week later. On the next charge, we'll do two things: $9 unused credit from their $12/mo plan, and $18 of usage from their $24/mo plan from the point the plan changed = $33 charge. This is a simple example, we'll calculate down to the second in reality. 

When a customer moves to a lower priced tier -  If the change from one plan to another creates a proration larger than the following charge, or any number after that, a charge will not be created until the credit has been used. This is notable for annual to monthly plan changes, we'll keep track of the balance of the annual plan and resume charges when it has been used.

API - Add On Fix

Previously add ons created via the API would correctly show up in MRR but would not be reflected in charges created when auto-charging is enabled.  The charges now will reflect the MRR with the included add-ons.
