Works with Stripe Payment Links

Recurring revenue from Payment Links, counted properly.

Recurring Payment Links create real Stripe subscriptions; one-time links create charges. SSA reads both and shows the recurring side as MRR, churn and retention, with one-time sales kept apart.

What Stripe Payment Links shows you today

Stripe's own dashboard shows payments and a subscriptions list, but nothing inside WordPress, and no cohort retention or churn by month.

How SSA reads it

Recurring Payment Links create Stripe subscriptions, which SSA reads directly. One-time links create charges, which show in Transactions. If a customer pays a one-time link at a regular interval, SSA detects the pattern, from the third charge onward, and counts it as a detected subscription.

What you get

The monthly recurring revenue card: the headline figure, the number of subscriptions behind it, the change against last month, and a sparkline.
Your real MRR, including revenue your billing plugin cannot see.
The filter bar on the Transactions report: a date range set to the last 12 months, then menus for status, type, plan, source, currency and payment method, with a group-by menu, a search box and an Export CSV link below.
Succeeded payments by default. Failed and refunded are one pick away in the status menu.

By email, when a WordPress user with the same address exists.

Which key permissions?
