What is entitlement?
Entitlements are the set of privileges that govern to what extent or how much an application user can access or utilize its features.
In Chargebee’s context, entitlements refer to the system of providing a suite of features, which different customers have access to based on the products they have subscribed to. To support your entitlement goals, Chargebee provides you an efficient UI to allocate and manage the customer privileges using Features.
When should entitlement be configured?
Regardless of your business line, it is essential to configure entitlements if you want to:
Ensure that your users are accessing features that they’re entitled to
Understand which of your features are driving value for your customers and revenue for your business
Leverage additional revenue opportunities
Increase revenue from upgrades and renewals
Minimize churn by cross-selling or upgrading based on customer expectations
