What you get​

Merchant of record​

Cleverbridge processes payments and appears on the buyer's statement. We manage global tax registration and remittance, compliant invoices and receipts, refunds, chargebacks, disputes, and other transaction responsibilities.

Optimized checkouts and global payments​

Full-page, pop-up, embedded, and in-app checkouts can localize language, currency, taxes, address fields, and payment methods. Payment orchestration helps improve authorization rates across global and regional methods.

Subscriptions, pricing, and incentives​

Support trials, seat-based and usage-based pricing, volume tiers, proration, upgrades, renewals, coupons, bundles, add-ons, and cross-sells.

Retention and lifecycle automation​

Renewal campaigns, payment recovery, dunning, cancellation flows, and targeted lifecycle messages help reduce churn and create opportunities for expansion.

Reporting, analytics, and integrations​

Dashboards, reports, APIs, Snowflake data sharing, and file delivery bring subscription, payment, retention, and partner data into your workflows.

Tax, compliance, and security​

Cleverbridge supports global tax handling, compliant invoicing, sanctions controls, data protection, and standards such as PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and ISAE 3402.

Partner-led growth and expert services​

CleverPartners supports affiliate, referral, reseller, and marketplace programs. Digital Marketing Services, Professional Services, and Customer Support Services can help you launch and improve programs across the revenue lifecycle.
