About the company
Zuora is an enterprise software company based in Redwood City, California. The organization builds digital platforms that help commercial clients launch and operate subscription business models. Many modern corporations rely on predictable recurring revenue streams, and specialized software helps organize these financial systems. Zuora provides tools that automate recurring billing cycles, payment intake, and price quotes. Its applications also handle official revenue recognition standards and compute key subscription metrics. These digital products allow financial teams to track customer accounts, monitor ongoing retention, and analyze account data.

Managing subscriber relationships requires specialized financial tracking, billing software, and continuous accounting controls. Zuora supports this operational shift by centralizing financial tasks for corporate customers. Co-founder Tien Tzuo has served as Chief Executive Officer of the business since 2007. Under his leadership, the firm established its position in the commercial software market. In 2025, American private equity firm Silver Lake and Singaporean sovereign wealth fund GIC acquired joint ownership of the enterprise. These global investment groups maintain ownership and financial backing for the business.
