Key trends in 2023

The most successful businesses will build on the latest trends in subscriptions and billing to drive and maximize their recurring revenue. Businesses with recurring revenue streams plan to:
  • Evolve pricing: 40% will optimize and update pricing to maximize revenue
  • Find new ways to reduce churn: 43% expect customer churn to increase, prompting them to invest in revenue recovery tools to recover failed payments and retain existing customers
  • Offer more local payment methods: 71% will add at least one new local payment method to reach more international subscribers and retain domestic subscribers, while lowering transaction costs

Now that it’s easier to track product usage accurately and in real time, more businesses are offering usage-based pricing as a way to build a competitive edge and appeal to a wider customer base. Dynamic pricing models also help businesses better manage cash flows by leveraging AI and automation to adjust pricing based on demand fluctuations.

Implementing homegrown solutions may look appealing at the outset… However, it’s easy to underestimate the complexity of business systems, and the initial build cost is just the tip of the iceberg. Over time, subscription businesses find themselves grappling with ongoing expenses related to feature enhancements, performance optimization, IT infrastructure upgrades, security improvements, and more.
