Subscriptions usage records

Unveil your customer's usage details with the Subscriptions Usage Records Export.

Overview

Required plan

This feature or setting is available to all customers on any Recurly subscription plan.

Definition

The Subscriptions Usage Records Export allows you to acquire individual usage records associated with your customer’s usage-based subscription add-ons. This data is crucial for your finance team to report on pre-billed revenue and enables product and marketing teams to scrutinize customer usage patterns. Note that for an accurate revenue reflection, discounts applied at the invoice level should be reviewed in the Adjustments export as they are not depicted here.

Access the detailed usage records through the Exports page found under the "Reports" section on your Recurly site.
