Meter any usage event. Rate it with precision.
Configure how usage is classified, ingest high-volume events from any source, apply entitlements and complex charging rules, and turn every rated event into an accurate billable charge.
Every event follows one controlled path from ingestion to invoice.
OneBill connects metering, mediation, rating and billing instead of forcing revenue teams to reconcile usage across separate systems. That makes it easier to account for every billable unit and apply the right commercial logic at scale.
Ingest
Receive CDRs, API events, transaction files, sensor records or other usage feeds from the systems that generate consumption.
API, SFTP, batch, eventsClassify
Map service type, event type, category, identifiers, time classes and other attributes into a consistent rating structure.
Normalize and enrichRate
Apply entitlements, tiers, thresholds, discounts, minimums, time rules and customer-specific pricing to the applicable usage.
Pricing logic appliedBill
Move rated charges into Billing360 with recurring charges, taxes and other invoice components.
Unified invoiceConfigure the engine around the usage your business actually sells.
Whether you meter minutes, messages, storage, bandwidth, API calls, seats, software consumption or utility usage, OneBill gives billing teams the controls to define how those events should be tracked, priced and invoiced.
Entitlements
Track included allowances such as free minutes, data, credits or any other usage quantity before chargeable consumption begins.
Charging models
Support pay-per-use, volume, tiered, threshold, overage, hybrid and other usage-driven charging models.
Multiple formats
Process multiple transaction formats and metrics without forcing every usage source into one rigid file structure.
Compute charges
Rate storage, data, calls, minutes, licenses, features, messages, bandwidth, compute and other measurable consumption.
Automate invoicing
Apply rated usage to invoices alongside subscriptions and tax calculation without manual reconciliation.
Bulk usage data
Automate mapping of high-volume usage records and CDR files through SFTP and APIs before those records reach rating.
Monitor usage trends
Aggregate usage to understand consumption patterns, client behavior and the movement behind variable revenue.
Support any industry
Use one configurable engine across telecom, SaaS, AI, utilities, infrastructure, IoT and other consumption-based businesses.
Share usage with customers
Expose usage, invoices, subscriptions and payment context through SelfCare360 for greater transparency.
Bring in usage from the systems that generate it, then normalize before rating.
OneBill can ingest usage through APIs, files and feeds, including bulk CDR workflows. The mediation layer gives raw records a consistent structure before pricing logic is applied, reducing the risk of missed or malformed usage reaching the invoice.
Built for businesses where thousands or millions of small events become revenue.
OneBill customers use usage rating to process communications events, consolidate micro-charges and keep complex usage computation connected to automated billing operations.
Voice CDRsUses OneBill’s usage rating to process CDRs from voice systems and apply the resulting usage charges to invoices.
Micro usageConsolidates thousands of small usage-based charges into a single invoice while automating broader quote-to-cash processes.
Usage accuracyUses OneBill to compute usage accurately, apply invoice charges and streamline billing operations around rated consumption.
OneBill enables our indirect billing for partners and carriers as well as our direct billing for agents and TSDs for our monthly subscriptions. APIs enable us to share data and flexibility as our business matures and grows.Dawn-Marie Elder, COO at SIPPIO

Answers for billing, finance, product and engineering teams evaluating how OneBill processes usage at scale.
What is a usage rating engine?
A usage rating engine receives usage events and determines what each event or aggregate of events should cost. It applies configured pricing logic such as tariffs, entitlements, tiers, volume bands, thresholds, overages, discounts, time rules or other attributes before the resulting charge reaches billing.
What types of usage can OneBill meter and rate?
OneBill can meter and rate any measurable event your business uses for charging, including seats, voice minutes, messages, data, bandwidth, API calls, storage, compute, licenses, software usage, utilities consumption and custom business events.
For the broader monetization model, see OneBill usage-based billing.
Can OneBill process CDRs and bulk usage files?
Yes. OneBill supports bulk usage transaction records and CDR processing through SFTP and APIs. Incoming records can be mapped to the relevant rating configuration, processed and turned into billable usage charges.
Which charging models can the rating engine support?
The engine can support pay-per-use, volume-based, tiered, threshold, overage, minimum commitment, time-based, multi-attribute, event-based and hybrid charging models. These can also be combined with recurring pricing through Billing360.
Can OneBill combine usage charges with subscriptions and taxes?
Yes. Rated usage can flow to the same invoice as recurring subscription charges, one-time charges and taxes. That lets a customer receive a consolidated invoice even when the underlying revenue model mixes fixed and variable components.
For tax calculation, see OneBill taxation. For blended pricing structures, see hybrid billing.
Can customers view their own usage data?
Yes. OneBill can expose usage, subscriptions, invoices and payments through a white-label customer portal. This gives customers clearer visibility into consumption and the charges associated with it, helping reduce billing surprises and disputes.
How does OneBill help reduce revenue leakage from usage?
Usage leakage often occurs when records are missed, malformed, incorrectly mapped or never make it from the source system to the invoice. Keeping ingestion, mediation, rating and billing connected gives the business a controlled path for validating usage and converting it into chargeable revenue.
Every usage event should have a clear path to revenue.
