Automated price change (uplift) for renewed subscriptions
This topic explains how to automate price changes for renewed subscriptions in Zuora Billing, including enabling the feature, selecting price increase options, and understanding prerequisites and supported charge types.

For example, you might want to increase prices on renewal by a fixed percentage to keep pace with inflation. Or you might change subscriber pricing to the latest catalog pricing during automatic renewals. Typically, this change is a price increase, and is referred to as an uplift.
