What does usage-based pricing (UBP) mean?

Usage-Based Pricing (UBP) is a pricing model where customers are charged based on their consumption of services or products, rather than a flat rate. This approach can complement or substitute the traditional recurring subscription models commonly seen in SaaS businesses. Typically, vendors offer a base subscription package and incorporate additional usage elements, like overages or usage-based add-ons, to provide more flexibility and alignment with customer usage patterns.
