Monitor and visualize churn trends
Use the Overview and churn trends views together to get both a real-time snapshot and a longer-term view of churn performance.
The Overview section highlights key churn metrics with percentage changes so you can instantly tell whether things are improving or worsening. The Churn trends chart complements this by helping you monitor how subscriber and subscription churn evolve over time.
- Track subscriber churn rate and Subscribers lost to see how many customers are churning.
- 0-day churn contribution to monitor poor acquisition quality.
- Upcoming order churn contribution to flag cancellations attributable to upcoming order notifications.
- Subscription cancellation rate and Subscriptions cancelled to measure how frequently individual subscriptions are being cancelled.
- Orders before cancellation to optimize retention nudges across the subscription journey.
- MRR lost via cancellations to measure the revenue impact.
- Trend patterns over time, with daily, weekly, or monthly views to detect shifts in behavior tied to campaigns or product changes.
The dashboard distinguishes between subscriber churn and individual subscription cancellations to clarify if you’re losing people or just subscriptions, even if the subscriber remains active.

- Identify early churn moments, such as cancellations after the first or second order.
- Pinpoint drop-off stages to optimize retention messaging across subscriber journey.
- Time interventions more effectively, such as adding loyalty rewards or surprise gifts before common cancellation points.
- Understand the financial impact of churn at each order milestone through granular metrics like churn rate and churned MRR-helping you connect behavioral drop-offs to actual revenue loss.
- Improve cancellation flows using churn and save data segmented by order completion stage.
- Analyze cancellation reasons over time using trend charts that break down top reasons across each order cohort.
- Uncover root causes of churn at each lifecycle stage by reviewing cancellation reason data - attempts, churned count, churn rate, MRR impact, and save performance.
- Measure effectiveness of save actions by tracking save rate, saved MRR, and the top-performing interventions tied to each reason.
