Formula
(Paying Users / Total Users) * 100
Calculation example
Suppose E-commerce Platform V had the following data during a specific period:
The e-commerce platform has a total of 50,000 users.
Out of these users, 5,000 are paying customers.
Paying Share = (Paying Users / Total Users) × 100
Paying Share = (5,000 / 50,000) × 100
Paying Share = 10 %
The e-commerce platform has a total of 50,000 users.
Out of these users, 5,000 are paying customers.
Paying Share = (Paying Users / Total Users) × 100
Paying Share = (5,000 / 50,000) × 100
Paying Share = 10 %
