How is it different from ARPU?
ARPU usually uses recurring revenue per user per month; this uses all revenue per paying account over any period. Check the formula, example, and limitations on this page before using the result for a real customer economics decision.
Which customer count?
The average during the period is fairer than the end count when the base is growing. Check the formula, example, and limitations on this page before using the result for a real customer economics decision.

We don't assume an industry-standard figure. Compare against your own history and plan, not a rule of thumb.
