How to compare a rebill offer vs a one-time offer (do the math)

New to recurring? A big one-time payout can look better than it is. Here's how to compare them fairly.

Rebill means the customer is charged again each cycle, so you earn again each cycle.

1. Write the one-time payout (e.g. $100 once).
2. Write the rebill payout per month (e.g. $8/mo).
3. Estimate how long a customer stays (e.g. 18 months).
4. Multiply: $8 x 18 = $144 lifetime.

In plain English: multiply the monthly amount by how long people usually stay before you judge.

Worked example: $100 one-time loses to $8/mo if customers stay 13+ months. Below that, the one-time wins.

Today's tiny action: take one rebill offer and multiply its monthly payout by 12 to see its yearly value.
