# Revenue leakage

**Revenue leakage is money a business is owed or should be charging but fails to collect: missed usage, unbilled changes, wrong discounts, expired promotions and unrecovered failed payments. It usually comes from gaps between systems rather than any one error, and it compounds quietly.**

## How to read it

Finding it means reconciling what customers contracted, what they used and what was invoiced and paid. Automating that reconciliation is more reliable than periodic spreadsheet audits.
