This is one metric as a business to track growth of our paying customers and eventually our revenue," mentioned Krish in an earlier interview. ChargeBee is now processing $1.6m USD per month in customer transactions at the moment. The target is to hit $20m per month in customer transaction revenues by end of the year.With an office in Palo Alto and expanding, ChargeBee is one of the upcoming success stories of an Indian company going global along with the likes of WebEngage, Wingify, Knowlarity, etc. in the enterprise domain. ChargeBee will be doubling down efforts in North America to expand business will also be setting up local 24*7 support.
