## Example

Your SaaS application tracked **567 subscription\_created events** in January.

| Metric               | Value | Notes                   |
| -------------------- | ----- | ----------------------- |
| Trial Converted      | 267   | From trial funnel       |
| Direct Signups       | 300   | Skipped trial           |
| Subscription Created | 567   | Total new subscriptions |

## How It Works

The Upstack pixel tracks `subscription_created` events when a new subscription is established. This includes both conversions from free trials and direct paid signups, capturing all new recurring revenue relationships.
