Zuora Monetization Suite for Workday Brings Billing and Revenue Capabilities Directly to Workday Customers
PLEASANTON, Calif. and FOSTER CITY, Calif., Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Workday, Inc. (NASDAQ: WDAY), the trusted agentic platform for HR, finance, and IT, and Zuora Inc., the leading monetization platform and system of record for quote-to-cash, today announced an expanded partnership to help companies launch new pricing models, such as AI and usage-based pricing, faster and without losing accuracy or control of their financial records. Customers can now access Zuora Billing and Zuora Revenue directly from Workday as part of the Zuora Monetization Suite for Workday, helping finance teams bill accurately and close the books with confidence.
AI is changing how companies charge for what they sell. As they move beyond simple subscriptions to usage-based, AI-driven, and hybrid pricing, finance teams need an easier, more connected way to manage billing and revenue. Too often, the systems that track what customers buy and use are separate from the systems that keep the company’s official financial records. That creates more manual work for finance teams to track charges and report revenue accurately, making it harder for companies to test new pricing models and see which ones drive profitable growth.
Building on their existing partnership that feeds Zuora billing and revenue data into Workday’s general ledger, Workday and Zuora are making it even easier for companies to bring billing and accounting together by connecting Zuora Billing and Zuora Revenue with Workday Financial Management and Workday Accounting Center. As a result, finance teams can get a single, trusted view of customer charges, usage, and revenue alongside their financial records, so no one has to piece it together by hand.
“New technology changes how companies charge customers,” said Max Wessel, senior vice president of product, Workday. “Cloud made monthly subscriptions common. Now, AI agents are driving a shift toward paying for what you use. Together with Zuora, we’re helping companies adapt without making billing and accounting more complicated.”
“Pricing has become a competitive advantage, but every new model can mean more work and more risk for finance. Together with Workday, we’re removing that tradeoff. Organizations can access a connected approach that helps them launch new revenue models while keeping finance accurate and in control,” said Todd McElhatton, chief operating and financial officer, Zuora. “We’ve also seen this combination work firsthand: we’ve chosen Workday to support our financial operations, and Workday uses Zuora for revenue recognition.”
The Zuora Monetization Suite for Workday is available now to Workday Financial Management customers. Customers can choose Zuora Billing, Zuora Revenue, or both, depending on their business needs.
