Customer Retention Rate (CRR) Calculator

From starting customers, ending customers and new acquisitions, compute the true retention of existing customers (CRR).

輸入資料

Total customers at period start.
Total customers at period end (includes new).
New customers won during the period.

計算結果

Ending minus new (existing kept).
900
Retained / starting x 100%.
90%

重點速覽:CRR = (ending customers - new customers) / starting customers x 100%. Subtracting new customers is essential — otherwise new wins are mistaken for retained old customers and CRR is overstated (even absurdly >100%). Example: start 1,000, new 200, end 1,100 → retained 900, CRR 90% (100 churned). CRR + churn = 100%. WARNING: Compare with peers/history; varies by industry and period. Education, not advice.

計算公式

留存舊客 = 期末客戶 − 期間新增客戶。

客戶留存率 = 留存舊客 ÷ 期初客戶 × 100%。

$$\text{Retained} = \text{End Customers} - \text{Acquired Customers}$$
$$\text{CRR} = \dfrac{\text{Retained}}{\text{Start Customers}} \times 100\%$$

使用說明

  1. Enter starting customer count.
  2. Enter ending count and new acquisitions.
  3. View retained customers and CRR.

留存舊客 = 期末客戶 − 期間新增;留存率 = 留存舊客 ÷ 期初客戶 × 100%。務必扣除新增客戶,否則會把新客誤算成留下的舊客。

理財情境案例

案例一:正確計算客戶留存率

某訂閱服務期初有 1,000 位客戶,期間新招來 200 位,期末帳上共 1,100 位。

第一步:留存舊客 = 期末客戶 − 期間新增 = 1,100 − 200 = 900 位。第二步:留存率 = 留存舊客 ÷ 期初客戶 × 100% = 900 ÷ 1,000 × 100% = 90%。

關鍵在於『扣除新增』:期末雖有 1,100 位看似成長,但其中 200 位是新客;若直接用 1,100 ÷ 1,000 = 110% 就荒謬地超過 100%,因為把新客誤算成留下的舊客。真正的留存率是 90%,代表期初的 1,000 位中流失了 100 位。

案例二:留存率、流失率與獲客成本的關係

承上,留存率 90% 意味著同期流失率為 100% − 90% = 10% (留存率 + 流失率 = 100%)。若期初 1,000 位中流失擴大到 200 位 (期末 1,050、新增 250、留存 800),留存率降至 80%,流失率升到 20%,是生意健康度惡化的訊號。

為何留存如此關鍵?因為留住舊客的成本通常遠低於獲客成本 (CAC)。若拉一個新客要花 200 元 CAC,而留住一個舊客只需少量關懷成本,那麼與其花大錢補回流失的客戶,不如先堵住流失。

實務判讀:(1) 留存率沒有放諸四海的標準,訂閱制/SaaS 追求很高的月/年留存,零售餐飲波動較大,應與自身歷史及同業比較看趨勢;(2) 高留存搭配高客戶終身價值 (LTV) 才是健康商業模式的基礎。本站另有『流失率計算器』與『獲客成本計算器』可搭配分析。

常見問題

Why subtract new customers?

Because the ending count mixes two groups — old customers kept and new ones won. Retention should measure only how many of the original stayed, so the numerator must be ending minus new; otherwise you'd count new customers as 'retained' and inflate the rate.

How is retention related to churn?

They sum to 100%. Retention tells 'how many kept', churn tells 'how many left' — opposite but complementary; analyse both, and use the churn-rate calculator for the同期 figure.

What is a good retention rate?

No universal standard — depends on industry and period. Subscription/SaaS pursue high monthly/annual retention; retail/F&B fluctuate more. Best practice: compare with your own history and peers, watch the trend — rising retention is a positive signal.

Why must we subtract new customers (again)?

It is the most error-prone step. The ending ledger mixes 'old customers still there' with 'newly acquired'. CRR wants pure retention of the original base. Directly dividing ending by starting can exceed 100% (e.g. 1,100/1,000 = 110%, logically impossible). Correct: retained = 1,100 - 200 = 900; CRR = 900/1,000 = 90%. This honestly reflects 'of 1,000 originals, 900 stayed, 100 left'. Subtracting new customers strips their contribution so retention isn't masked by acquisition — a company can look like it's growing while quietly leaking old customers; correct CRR exposes that.

How do retention, churn and CAC interplay, and why does retention matter?

They depict the health of your customer economy. Retention + churn = 100% always. Retaining an existing customer usually costs far less than winning a new one (CAC) — keeping customers extends the value of each acquisition (higher LTV). Healthy models satisfy 'LTV >> CAC' (often LTV/CAC >= 3), and high retention is the engine behind LTV. So rather than pouring all resources into acquisition, plugging churn first is often higher-ROI. Pair with the churn-rate, CAC and LTV calculators.
