Connect acquisition to revenue: How the Airbridge × RevenueCat Integration helps subscription apps measure real ROI

Most subscription apps don’t fail at acquisition — they fail at understanding which users become profitable in the long-term. To answer that, you need to connect where a user came from with how they behave across their entire subscription lifecycle.

The Airbridge × RevenueCat integration brings these two data sets together, so teams can attribute trials, renewals, churn, and lifetime value back to the exact campaign or channel that drove the user to subscribe.

From Visibility to Actionable Insights

Having access to subscription data isn’t enough to understand growth. To measure ROI accurately, marketers need to know where paying users came from and how their lifetime value evolves. 

RevenueCat provides a reliable foundation for managing in-app subscriptions. It connects directly with app stores to process billing and generate accurate server-side events such as trial start, purchase, renewal, billing issue, and expiration.

Airbridge complements this by connecting those events to their acquisition sources. With both datasets combined, subscription teams can answer practical questions such as:

  • Which UA channels drive stronger trial-to-paid conversion?
  • Do Meta campaigns deliver better renewal rates than TikTok?
  • Which creatives bring in subscribers who retain through Day 180?

Insights like these become even more actionable when paired with industry benchmarks such as the RevenueCat State of Subscription Apps Report, which provides broader context on trial, renewal, and churn patterns across subscription apps.

Turning Connected Data into ROI

With lifecycle events and attribution now in one place, teams can compare channels by renewal rate, churn, and lifetime value — gaining a clear view of which marketing efforts sustain long-term revenue. Through the integration, marketers can:

  • Attribute recurring revenue to the campaign, channel, or creative that acquired each subscriber.
  • Monitor key lifecycle metrics such as renewal rate, churn, and LTV directly on Airbridge’s unified dashboard.
  • Leverage cohort analysis to uncover which campaigns and user segments drive stronger retention and long-term revenue.
  • Evaluate true marketing ROI by comparing subscription-driven revenue against campaign spend.
  • Optimize budgets and creatives using data that reflects subscriber quality, not just conversion volume.
“Airbridge has built a great attribution platform, and pairing it with RevenueCat’s subscription data unlocks a level of insight that teams simply haven’t had before. We’re excited to partner together to help apps grow with more confidence and clarity.”
— Matt Berry, Head of Partnerships, RevenueCat
