Export subscriptions
The Excel export lets you step back on all your subscriptions: data crossing, trend analysis, sharing with a treasurer or chartered accountant, periodic archiving.

Typical use cases
Quarterly review of new subscriptions
Ideal for tracking the growth of your recurring base.
- 1
Tab “In progress” (default)
- 2
Filter by creation date over the quarter
From the 1st day to the last day of the quarter.
- 3
Export and analyze
Count the number of new subscriptions, the total monthly amount added, the distribution by platform.
Identify top recurring donors
- 1
Tab “In progress”
- 2
Filter by minimum amount
For example 100 €.
- 3
Export
You get the list of regular high-contribution donors — precious for targeted thank-you actions.
Annual review for the board or treasurer
- 1
Export each tab separately
One export per status, to measure where the base stands: how many in progress, how many interrupted, how many completed this year.
- 2
Cross-check with the payment export
See Export for the accountant — the Payments export shows the direct debits actually made, the Subscriptions export shows the commitments in progress.
Reliability audit of the base
- 1
Export subscriptions for “Manual intervention” and “Expired card”.
- 2
Analyze the reasons
Which donors have been inactive for a long time? What is the total amount lost in monthly contributions due to them? This helps determine the effort needed to re-engage them.
Best practices
- Filter before exporting: without a filter, the file contains the entire base, which can be heavy and not very useful
- Archive the exports: save monthly or quarterly exports in a dated folder to track evolution over time
- Anonymize if needed: for sharing with third parties, remove the Email, Phone, Address columns before sending
- Check consistency: before sending, open the file and verify that the totals match the indicators shown at the top of the list
Format limits
- The file is a snapshot at the time of export. If a subscription changes status afterwards, the export is not updated — you have to run another export
- The file does not contain the history of direct debits (only the characteristics of the parent subscriptions). For this history, see Export for the accountant on the Payments module side
