Zuora Newsroom

REDWOOD CITY, CALIF., April 24, 2024 – Zuora, Inc. (NYSE: ZUO), a leading monetization suite for modern business, today announced that global video game publisher Ubisoft has adopted Zuora to power its Ubisoft+ and Rocksmith+ subscription services. Over the course of the partnership, Ubisoft has leveraged Zuora to scale its subscription business, automating and reducing friction in the billing, accounting and payment processes to accommodate online traffic increases of up to 200% during new game releases. 

“Today’s video game market is extremely concentrated, which makes it even more critical to build direct relationships with players,” said Casilda Sánchez-Blanco, Product Lead at Ubisoft. “To succeed in this ultra-competitive sector, Ubisoft needs to be on the cutting edge of technological innovation to build games that resonate. Insights from our subscription services help us do this. With Zuora, we can design the right offering for each player and navigate volume surges to ensure players have the best experience.”

Zuora has helped Ubisoft to customize billing and payments needs based on the subscriber. And after initially selecting Zuora to power subscription management for the Ubisoft+ service, the partnership has since expanded to power Rocksmith+, a subscription-based music learning service. Zuora has also supported the international expansion of Ubisoft+ to multiple countries, tailoring offerings as well as managing payments and tax calculations across numerous currencies and payment methods. Ubisoft+ is currently available in 184 countries and has future plans to continue expanding its subscription offerings with the support of Zuora. 

“Our technology partners must be capable of scaling up very quickly. Zuora has played an important role in this, enabling us to navigate new subscriber volume increases of up to 200%, which we can experience when we have new game releases. Zuora has the proven agility to meet our needs,” said Sánchez-Blanco.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Apr. 9, 2024 – Zuora, Inc. (NYSE: ZUO), a leading monetization suite for modern business, today released the latest Subscription Economy Index™ (SEI) report, which found that companies in the SEI have experienced 3.4x faster growth rates than the S&P 500 over the past 12 years.

In 2023, amid economic challenges and slowed digital transformations, companies in the SEI demonstrated resilience through Total Monetization strategies. By aligning and evolving their monetization models with customer demand, they pursued innovative approaches beyond traditional subscriptions, including hybrid and flexible bundling strategies. This agility and customer focus have driven sustainable growth despite market uncertainties.

In the latest SEI report, The Subscribed Institute at Zuora® found: 

• Companies in the SEI continue to outpace the S&P 500: In 2023, companies in the SEI experienced a 10.4% revenue growth rate on average compared to 6% for the S&P 500.
• Customer acquisition slowed, but retention is up: While customer acquisition slowed in 2023, companies in the SEI are retaining their customers, with churn numbers lower than the previous three years.
• Customer expansion, or annual revenue per account (ARPA), is on an upward trend and slightly improved in 2023: Starting with a quarterly growth rate of 0.73% in Q1 2023, ARPA growth ended the year over 2x stronger at 1.76% in Q4. The quarterly average also improved year-over-year, with 1.5% growth in 2023 compared to 1.29% in 2022.
• While growth rates slowed in the SaaS sector, churn is down and consumption-based models are continuing to demonstrate promising revenue growth: The SEI SaaS sector experienced a 10.1% revenue growth rate on average. The 6-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for SEI SaaS companies employing consumption-based models reached 20.1% in 2023 compared to 16.3% for the non-consumption counterparts.
• In the Media & Entertainment sector, the New Media subset experienced faster revenue growth, but Publishing Media successfully expanded subscriber count over time: Media & Entertainment experienced a revenue growth rate of 6% on average in 2023. While the New Media subset experienced a faster revenue growth rate (12%) than Publishing Media (5.6%), Publishing Media grew ARPA year-over-year (YoY), while New Media ARPA growth slowed.

“Staying competitive means embracing agility and flexibility to incorporate a diverse mix of business models as opposed to a reliance on any single approach,” said Amy Konary, Senior Vice President and Founder of The Subscribed Institute at Zuora. “Companies that are able to evolve their monetization with demand will be better set up for faster and recurring growth.”

Zuora’s SEI report analyzes the growth and resilience of over 600 recurring revenue businesses based on anonymized, aggregated, system-generated activity on the Zuora Billing service. The latest report includes data by sector in SaaS, Media & Entertainment and Manufacturing, as well as by region in EMEA and APAC.

Zuora Becomes a Sovos Certified Compliance Partner

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. and PARIS, October 19, 2023 – Zuora, Inc. (NYSE: ZUO), a leading monetization suite for modern businesses, today at Subscribed Connect Paris announced a partnership with Sovos, a global compliance technology solutions and services provider, to help global businesses meet electronic invoicing (e-invoicing) mandates directly through Zuora.

As tax reform becomes more extensive around the world, numerous countries have adopted or are planning adoption of global e-invoicing mandates. But companies often struggle to comply with fast-approaching standards, as requirements vary by country and mandate timelines differ. Those that fail to meet government requirements can face regulatory fees and consequences, including potential lost revenue if they lose approval or licensure to conduct business in certain regions. 

Without the right solution, e-invoicing compliance often makes the invoicing process manual, and building custom connections to e-invoicing networks requires substantial IT resources and infrastructure. In partnership with Sovos, Zuora now provides a pre-integrated, automated e-invoicing solution that works directly with its recurring billing.

As part of this partnership, Zuora also joins the Sovos Certified Compliance Program, an innovative program that enables transaction management platforms providers to leverage Sovos’ industry-leading e-invoicing compliance portfolio through certified integrations to solve critical customer compliance requirements wherever they are. 

“By streamlining the process to meet e-invoicing mandates, Zuora’s partnership with Sovos will enable companies to focus on global expansion and driving recurring growth,” said Balaji Subramanian, Vice President, Global Partner Ecosystem at Zuora. “Now with Zuora, modern businesses can leverage critical data already available in their modern billing system to reduce complexity and meet e-invoicing mandates with one solution.”

The new partnership with Sovos enables Zuora customers to:

• Leverage an out-of-the-box solution to address local e-invoicing regulations
• Meet compliance through country-specific templates, tax management reports and e-invoice archiving capabilities
• Simplify operations by automatically passing billing information from Zuora to Sovos to generate e-invoices 
• Easily expand into new markets with a pre-integrated e-invoicing solution, and leverage Zuora’s existing 40+ pre-integrated payment gateways and multi-currency support

“As a strategic Sovos Certified Compliance Program partner, Zuora is the first in the transaction management category to provide its customers with access to a global, 360° compliance solution,” said Alice Katwan, President of Revenue at Sovos. “With the compliance capabilities and coverage provided through our partnership, Zuora’s customers are set to meet today’s international tax requirements, as well any changing regulations in the future.”

In addition to the Sovos partnership, Zuora also provides out-of-the-box PEPPOL data export, which can be used to submit e-invoices through a Zuora workflow to the PEPPOL e-invoicing network.

New release lets Power Admins extend Zuora for any last-mile use case

New capabilities provide agility and insights to power consumption-based models 

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. and LONDON, October 17, 2023 – Zuora, Inc. (NYSE: ZUO), a leading monetization suite for modern businesses, today at Subscribed Connect London expanded Zuora® for Consumption with a native Mediation Engine. Zuora for Consumption provides a holistic solution to scale consumption-based offerings, helping companies price on different models, meter raw usage events across devices and services, inform customers of consumption in near real-time and is purpose-built to recognize revenue for consumption.

New technology and fierce competition are compelling businesses to monetize their products in new ways, with a significant shift toward consumption-based models. According to new research from Zuora’s Subscribed Institute and Boston Consulting Group (BCG), nearly half (46%) of companies analyzed implemented some form of consumption-based pricing in the last three years, and hybrid consumption models, businesses that drive both recurring and usage revenue, increased almost 3X (from 9% to 26%) between 2020 and 2022. New technology, including the explosion of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) is also expected to drive adoption of consumption-based models. 

However, identifying the right consumption-based model often takes iteration. It’s important for companies to be able to adapt as customers’ needs and economic conditions change to create ongoing value and predictability. While tracking consumption produces a wealth of data on how a product is used, translating this unpredictable raw usage into the right pricing model can be challenging and complex. With Zuora’s Mediation Engine, companies can now create flexible meters and consolidate usage data, unlocking new customer insights to rapidly experiment with pricing and better align with customer value.

“Modern businesses are driving recurring growth through a deep understanding of how subscribers consume their products,” said Kyle Kolich, Vice President, Product Management, Billing at Zuora. “Zuora’s new native Mediation Engine helps make this possible, integrating metering capabilities and pricing recommendations that improve consumption visibility, accelerate growth and even identify future opportunities to monetize.”

Part of Zuora for Consumption, the new Mediation Engine includes:

• Ability to ingest raw usage data at 200k events per second
• Out-of-the-box metering components to aggregate, enrich and transform event data through a drag-and-drop user interface (UI)
• Ability to apply custom, proprietary logic to meters
• Auditable usage recording tracking throughout rating, billing and revenue recognition

Customer & Analyst Quotes

“Constantly evolving industry trends mean we are always thinking about our pricing, how we present offers, and the data points we want to collect and make decisions on. More than 90% of leading companies in 12 industrial sectors rely on AVEVA’s software solutions to help them design, build, operate, and optimize their plants and facilities. Adding Zuora for Consumption within our AVEVA CONNECT platform will give our customers critical visibility into their consumption habits, allowing us to provide transparency and deliver value as we iterate over time,” said Kevin Cornwall, CIO at AVEVA. “Zuora’s unique, end-to-end solution also helps us simplify the complex revenue recognition and compliance involved in consumption monetization.”

“Recent IDC research found that while 42% of companies already have a consumption billing solution, it is inadequate for their future needs,” said Mark Thomason, Research Director for Digital Business Models and Monetization at IDC. “The new Mediation Engine in Zuora for Consumption enables customers to easily import, clean, and transform high-volume, raw consumption data so that consumption can be flexibly rated for any type of pricing scheme with a drag and drop interface.”

“With its new Mediation Engine and the ability to monetize consumption, subscription and one-time transactions together, Zuora is providing the revenue platform of tomorrow and powering businesses with complex consumption-based models,” said Stephen Hurrell, Vice President and Research Director in the Office of Revenue at Ventana Research.
