From software, media and news, to consumer goods, financial services, and insurance—every major industry is being transformed by the power of subscriptions. Today’s most innovative companies are harnessing the power of the subscription model to create recurring revenue streams, evolve their billing models, reveal mission-critical customer insights, and automate revenue-optimizing decisions. Every business that has a subscription-based pricing structure keeps track of customers, processes payments and cancellations, records buying history, sends invoices at the right time, triggers payment failures, and much more. A subscription management solution works on top of a payment processor to support recurring billing and allows teams to take actions that cannot be automated. In other words, it allows you to address many of the customer-related actions that come into the picture when payments recur.
