How to Use This Customer Lifetime Value Calculator
Enter Purchase Data
Enter average purchase value and purchase frequency—the core inputs every customer lifetime value calculator needs. For SaaS, use annual contract value and renewals per year; for e-commerce, use average order value and repeat purchase rate.
Set Customer Lifespan
Enter how many years, on average, a customer keeps buying before churning. Longer relationships increase CLV.
See Your CLV & Optional ROI
Simple mode shows revenue-based CLV. Advanced mode adds profit margin and optional CAC so you can view LTV:CAC and an estimated payback window when CAC is provided.
Why CLV Matters
Plan Acquisition Spend
Knowing your CLV helps startups and SaaS teams set sensible acquisition budgets. Compare against CAC in Advanced mode to see LTV:CAC ratio and estimated payback period.
CAC Comparison (Advanced)
When you add CAC and a profit margin, the tool estimates LTV:CAC and how many months of profit it may take to recover acquisition cost—useful sanity checks, not a substitute for full finance modeling.
Retention Lever
Higher purchase frequency or longer lifespan directly multiplies CLV, which is why retention work often pays off.
