Credit Sales vs Usage.

Mapping the trend - "Mind The Gap".

VIEW DETAILS

Under Xref’s business model, clients purchase Xref credits to use our candidate referencing platform. These credit sales are reported initially as unearned income, and when clients pay for the credits, this is recognised as cash receipts. The credits are consumed when reference checks are ordered, and credit usage becomes recognised revenue. At Xref the relationship between sold and used credits is known as 'Mind the Gap'. Sales of Xref credits increased more than 42% year-on-year to a record $10.1 million in FY19, up from $7.1 million in FY18. Credit usage increased 66%, rising to $8 million from $4.8 million.
