Renewal

Definition

The process by which a customer extends their subscription contract for an additional term, typically annually.

Renewals are the lifeblood of SaaS businesses and the primary driver of recurring revenue stability. The renewal process typically begins 90-120 days before contract expiration and involves confirming satisfaction, addressing concerns, negotiating terms, and securing signatures. Renewal rates (gross and net) are key metrics -- gross renewal measures retention, while net renewal accounts for expansion and contraction.
