With that comes an opportunity for companies to build and nurture ongoing relationships with their customers.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., November 18, 2025 – Zuora, Inc., a leading monetization platform for modern business, today announced the Zuora Monetization Catalog to rapidly design, price, and launch new offers, without relying on IT or manual workarounds. Purpose-built for the age of AI, the Monetization Catalog enables companies to go to market faster, evolve how they sell, and unlock data-driven intelligence to meet the demand for dynamic, personalized offerings.
Businesses face growing pressure to monetize in new ways, from constantly adapting pricing (80% percent of consumers say they value flexibility in recurring services) to launching AI-driven offerings that introduce new complexity. Zuora’s Monetization Catalog helps businesses optimize and personalize pricing to meet customers where they are, while ensuring clean financial records and accelerating growth.
“Outdated systems too often hold teams back from product innovation,” said Shakir Karim, Senior Vice President of Product Management at Zuora. “To meet the AI moment, companies need to move faster, adapt instantly, and make smarter, data-driven decisions. With the right foundation – dynamic pricing, packaging, and buying experiences – they can align how they sell with how customers make purchasing decisions.”
Zuora’s Monetization Catalog delivers speed, agility, and intelligence through:
- Dynamic Pricing: Capture more revenue with pricing that adapts based on attributes such as customer type, region, and usage
- Bundles: Combine products, matching each customer’s needs and business context to the right solution
- Features & Entitlements: Define and track access to capabilities across plans, add-ons, and bundles – unlocking the ability to monetize at the feature level and upsell flexibly
- Unified Logic Across Channels: Apply the same product rules across storefronts, CPQ, billing, and revenue, eliminating reconciliation
- Usage-Based Pricing & Rating: Tiers, volume, overage, and prepaid/commit blocks with proper rating and revenue treatment, without custom code
- AI-Ready by Design: Tag metadata for AI discoverability, and lay groundwork for future AI pricing optimization, all usable by LLMs and internal copilots
“Zuora’s dynamic pricing catalog is the groundwork the industry has been missing for decades,” said Wazma Emon, Managing Director, Head of Finance Transformation at Tradeweb. “Traditional billing systems were built around static fields and rigid logic, forcing us to maintain hundreds of custom fields just to model real-world deals. This new foundation changes that. It allows unlimited attributes of data to drive pricing, making it possible to design fee structures that grow with the market, protect against downturns, and adapt to each customer’s needs. As this platform matures, it has the potential to capture business complexity in a more flexible and scalable way, enabling firms to evolve their pricing strategies with greater ease and speed.”
“Companies are under increasing pressure to launch new pricing, packaging, and products faster than ever before. Customers have increasing power over how they want to buy. These two trends are forcing companies to invest in more agile solutions that deliver faster time to market without placing undue strain on finance and operations teams,” said Andrew Dailey, Co-Founder and Managing Director at MGI Research.
By powering the full monetization process, Zuora connects how offers are designed and sold, to how they’re billed, paid, and recognized. To learn more about the Zuora Monetization Catalog, visit here.

AI-based ARM solutions will become technically viable by 2027, but adoption will lag as finance leaders prioritize trust and transparency, predicts MGI
Redwood City, Calif. – Nov. 6, 2025 – Zuora, Inc., a leading monetization platform for modern business, today announced MGI Research (MGI) has ranked Zuora Revenue in first place overall, with the highest score across Product and Strategy, for Automated Revenue Management (ARM) in the MGI 360™ Ratings – The ARM Top 30: Buyer’s Guide. Zuora Revenue maintains a Positive Analyst Outlook from MGI, underscoring its continued leadership in helping enterprises automate and scale complex revenue operations.
MGI Research predicts AI-based ARM solutions will become technically viable by 2027, however, adoption will be hindered due to trust. As enterprises introduce new pricing models, bundles, and AI-driven products, financial processes are becoming increasingly complex. Zuora Revenue, part of the Zuora Monetization Platform, enables finance teams to automatically recognize, reconcile, and analyze revenue using trusted data to close the books faster, simplify compliance, and adapt confidently in the age of AI.
In addition to leading overall, Zuora Revenue received top rankings from MGI across:
- Product: MGI recognized Zuora Revenue as the leading choice for the enterprise
- Strategy: Zuora Revenue was highlighted for its advancements and is seen as critical finance infrastructure for large and complex user organizations
“We’re honored to be recognized by MGI Research as companies double down on AI offerings and new monetization models that introduce greater complexity for revenue recognition,” said Pete Hirsch, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Zuora. “This underscores the essential role of Zuora’s platform in providing the AI-driven agility and end-to-end control required to manage sophisticated processes and ensure compliance at the speed of innovation.”
Zuora Revenue connects with Zuora Billing, Payments, and other ERP and CRM systems to unify the order-to-revenue process. The Zuora Monetization Platform empowers companies to launch and scale any mix of revenue models, automate GAAP and IFRS compliance, and gain real-time insight into recurring and usage-based revenue streams.
“Ask any CFO what keeps them up at night, and it isn’t missing the number. It’s not trusting the number,” said Andrew Dailey, Co-Founder and Managing Director at MGI Research. “In a world of complex revenue contracts, usage pricing, and instant investor reactions, businesses need to counter changing market conditions faster than ever and finance teams need to forecast with agility and precision while enhancing the trust and confidence in financial results.”
