Business-Model Shift Deepens: Credit-Based Pricing Now in 79 of the PricingSaaS 500 (Up From 35), Seat-Based Falls 21%→15%
Tracking data cited in Monetizely's 2026 pricing guide shows credit/consumption pricing spreading fast — 79 of the PricingSaaS 500 now run credit-based models vs 35 at end-2024, with Figma, HubSpot, and Salesforce among recent joiners; seat-based pricing fell from 21% to 15% of companies in 12 months while hybrid surged 27%→41%. Gartner separately projects 40% of enterprise SaaS spend shifts to usage/agent/outcome pricing by 2030 (~$234B diverted from traditional SaaS). This is a distinct data cut (credit-economy adoption) from recently reported per-resolution moves.
