What is Average Revenue per User (ARPU)?

Average Revenue per User, widely known as ARPU, is a measure that is used by a variety of organizations, but typically it’s used to evaluate subscription-based services. It’s a plain, easy measure with important key applications. This statistic measure is used by businesses to track the aspects that contribute to the overall income of the organisation. ARPU helps organizations in scrutinizing their progress trends and comparing their performance to that of their competitors.

ARPU is evaluated by dividing Direct Income from Subscribers in the relevant period of monitoring by the number of Subscribers in the same period. This is then multiplied by the number of days during the period. ARPU excludes Direct Revenue from users who aren’t subscribers and have just purchased à la carte features. ARPU is a daily measure that solely considers Direct Revenue from subscribers.

Computing ARPU is a great approach for an organization to keep track of its annual growth. ARPU may be used by service and software companies that provide various monthly membership tiers to track the monetary worth of each new user. They may then evaluate the utility of each subscription’s users to see which premium offers have the largest impact on income.
