Credit-based Pricing
Launch Credit-Based Pricing Models for Software and AI
Complement fixed subscriptions with credit-based pricing for product or feature usage, powered by configurable rate tables, entitlement-driven access control, and real-time consumption tracking.
Revenera’s Dynamic Monetization enables you to:
- Offer consumption-based access to products, features, or AI capabilities
- Support prepaid and postpaid credit models
- Combine credits with other pricing models to create a hybrid offer
- Control user access based on the availability of credits
39% of product leaders plan to increase the use of prepaid credit models, while 42% plan to increase the use of hybrid strategies with usage-based components layered onto subscriptions.
Flexible Credit-Based Pricing Models
- Assign credit values to products, features, services, compute capacity, AI capabilities, or agentic workflows
- Centralize visibility through rate tables
- Update credit pricing and packaging without requiring application changes
- Enable customer specific terms via integration with order data
Control how Credits are Provisioned and Consumed

Govern Usage in Real Time
