Calculate the efficiency of your trial program by determining the percentage of trial users who convert to paid customers.
Your Trial-to-Paid Conversion Rate is:
0%
Calculate the percentage of trial users who become paying customers by comparing the number of paid conversions to total trial users.
Use the formula: conversion rate (%) = (Number of Paid Conversions / Number of Trial Users) × 100
conversion rate (%) = (Number of Paid Conversions / Number of Trial Users) × 100
Example values: 1,200 trial users and 156 paid conversions.
A paid conversion is any trial user who completes a paid subscription or one-time purchase within your tracking period; define the conversion event consistently across reports.
Yes, exclude users who immediately cancel or receive full refunds, or track them separately to report net conversions versus gross conversions.
Measure this rate monthly to monitor trends and after major product, pricing, or onboarding changes to assess impact.
Benchmarks vary by industry, but many SaaS products see 5–15%; compare against your historical performance and peers to set realistic targets.
