Billing shouldn’t need workarounds.
Bill for any pricing model
Bill for anything without placeholders or workarounds. Combine usage, outcomes, credits with one-offs and add-ons.
Sales and billing on one record
Closed-won deals in HubSpot or Salesforce become live subscriptions, with billing details captured at the quote instead of chased afterwards.
Reporting you can trust
Clean data in, so NRR, churn, MRR and ASC 606 / IFRS 15 revenue recognition come out right, even after years of pricing changes.
PRICING FLEXIBILITY
Change your pricing without breaking your billing
Every pricing change in Chargebee leaves something behind: another plan version, another add-on mapping, another workaround. A few years in, the setup is too fragile to touch.
Alguna versions pricing cleanly, so you can launch new models without a rebuild.
- Usage, hybrid, tiered, prepaid and one-time charges, natively
- Parent–child and multi-entity billing without dual subscriptions
- Pricing changes versioned cleanly, with no legacy clutter
- Customer-specific terms set up without code
QUOTE-TO-CASH
Stop building subscriptions by hand
Sales works in the CRM and billing works in Chargebee, and someone sits in between re-keying deals, fixing contracts and chasing customers for missing billing details.
Alguna turns signed deals into subscriptions automatically, so the handoff happens without a person in the middle.
- Closed-won deals create subscriptions automatically
- Billing details captured at the quote, not chased after signature
- Products and add-ons stay in sync with your CRM
- Payments reconciled with your ERP automatically
AI COLLECTIONS
Chasing and collections by agents
Finding what was invoiced, when it was sent and what’s still outstanding shouldn’t take seven clicks.
Alguna gives every customer one timeline, and an AI agent handles collections in your voice instead of a fixed template.
- One timeline per customer: invoices, payments, notes and activity
- Live view of outstanding and overdue amounts
- AI collections with outreach customized by segment
- Prepayments matched to revenue recognition automatically

Frequently Asked Questions: Alguna vs Chargebee
What’s the difference between Chargebee and Alguna?
Chargebee is a subscription billing tool built around plans and add-ons. Alguna is a quote-to-revenue platform for finance and RevOps, covering pricing, CPQ, billing, collections and revenue recognition in one system. It handles usage, hybrid and multi-entity models natively instead of through workarounds.
Can we migrate years of messy pricing history?
Yes. We migrate customers, subscriptions, contracts, legacy pricing and payment methods, then validate everything before cutover so billing and revenue recognition aren’t disrupted.
Can Alguna handle parent–child accounts, marketplace purchases and one-time charges?
Yes, natively. No dual subscriptions, no $0 placeholder plans, and no backend logic to decide who has access.
How long does it take to switch from Chargebee?
Most teams go live in weeks. We’ll plan the cutover around your renewal date, a fundraise or year-end, so you’re not locked into another 12-month term.
Can I keep my payment gateway?
Yes. Alguna connects to your existing processor, such as Stripe, so billing logic moves without changing how you get paid.
Does Alguna take a percentage of billings?
No. Alguna has transparent pricing with no revenue share, so your bill doesn’t grow just because your revenue does.
Do I need engineers to change pricing in Alguna?
No. Finance and RevOps can launch and test new pricing, add usage meters, and set customer-specific terms without engineering involved.
