The challenge

LiveChat, a customer service software company, needed a subscription billing platform that could scale as it expanded from a single product into a family of products including ChatBot, HelpDesk, and KnowledgeBase. The team evaluated several billing options before selecting a platform to support rapid subscriber growth.

The solution

LiveChat installed Recurly and merged it with its backend systems, reaching full production in less than three weeks. The company built on Recurly's Revenue Recovery and iterated its dunning process to run up to 13 days beyond the billing cycle.

We investigated several billing options, and Recurly clearly stood out from the rest.
