What is Revenue Churn Rate?

Revenue churn rate is the percentage of recurring revenue lost to cancellations and downgrades in a period. Because it's dollar-weighted, it can differ sharply from customer churn.

Revenue churn = churned MRR ÷ starting MRR × 100

How to read your result

  • Losing a few big accounts hurts revenue churn more than logo churn.
  • Most healthy SaaS keeps monthly revenue churn under ~2%.
  • Negative revenue churn (expansion beats churn) is best-in-class.
  • Track it alongside customer (logo) churn for the full story.

Frequently asked questions

Why track revenue churn separately from customer churn?

Customer churn counts accounts lost; revenue churn weights by dollars. Losing one large customer can mean low logo churn but high revenue churn.
