Allocate Tiers
New customers are distributed across service tiers using the editable allocation mix.
03
Retain Cohorts
Each customer cohort remains active for its stated lifetime or churn convention.
04
Apply Monthly Fees
Starting and unexpired customers are charged the monthly fee for their tier.

Calculate Revenue
Monthly tier revenue is combined across active customer tiers and forecast periods.
CORE FORMULARevenue = Active customers × Monthly fee per active customer

CUSTOM STRUCTURE
Consider Custom Modeling
Your main revenue depends on transactions, usage, commissions, projects, or another non-recurring mechanic.
Your retention logic requires contract structures beyond customer lifetime or churn-based cohorts.
Your operating schedules need business-specific modules beyond the model’s linked assumptions.
Your reporting requirements differ materially from the model’s integrated financial outputs.
