Background & Current Limitations
Currently in Creem:
We receive payment success notifications.
We cannot distinguish between new subscriptions and renewal payments.
There is no visibility into upcoming subscription renewals.
No email notification is sent when a customer cancels a subscription.
For SaaS businesses, these capabilities are essential for:
Accurate MRR / ARR forecasting
Proactive customer success engagement
Churn prevention
Requested Enhancements
We would like to request two key improvements:
1️⃣ Upcoming Renewal Dashboard
Objective
Provide visibility into upcoming subscription renewals.
Requirement
Add a dashboard module showing all monthly and yearly subscriptions scheduled to renew within a selectable time range:
Default: next 7 days
Optional filters: 3 / 7 / 14 / 30 days
This would significantly improve revenue predictability and operational planning.
2️⃣ Subscription Lifecycle Notification Improvements
Enhance the notification system to clearly distinguish subscription lifecycle events.
Currently, only generic payment success notifications are available.
We request support for the following event types:
New Subscription – First successful payment
Subscription Renewal – Recurring billing charge
Subscription Cancelled (User) – Customer-initiated cancellation
Subscription Cancelled (via Creem Support) – Cancellation handled by Creem support
Clear differentiation between these events is critical for accurate reporting and churn management.
