Welcome to the digital age, where streamlined operations are key to success. For small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Kenya, adopting a reliable subscription billing system could be your competitive advantage. This approach offers recurring revenue, improved cash flow, and enhanced customer relationships.
Subscription billing, also known as recurring billing, empowers businesses to charge customers on a regular basis — weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually. By automating the billing process, SMEs can reduce time spent on administrative tasks, focus on core operations, and minimize the risk of late payments.
Let's consider an example: A Kenyan digital marketing agency offers its services on a monthly subscription basis. With subscription billing, the agency can effortlessly manage client subscriptions, send automated invoices, track payments, and handle renewals or cancellations with ease.
According to a recent report by Statista, digital payments in Kenya are on the rise, with subscription services expected to follow suit. By embracing this trend early, your SME can take advantage of consistent revenue, better forecasting, and more stable cash flow.
