Base Amount and Commitment
Configuration of Base Amount
Base amounts allow you to set a minimum amount to be charged in cases of zero consumption. This is only applicable for metered or usage-based products. The base amount is set on the product line item, so you must start with a product line item.
-
Go to Plans & Pricing —> New plan—> Add pricing & products —> select Tiered Pricing
-
Add by clicking on + Set Base Amount
-
Enter the amount to be charged in case of no usage metered
-
Delete or edit by hovering with your mouse
Please Note
Base amounts are only applicable for usage products (otherwise it’s easier to go for “fixed recurring” pricing).
Base amount charges will be added to the customer’s invoice according to the plan’s billing interval.
All amounts are calculated in USD.
Configuration of Commitment
Commitment is the minimum quantity a customer has committed to purchase during the plan lifetime. The commitment is set on the product line item, so you must start by creating a product.
- Go to Plans & Prcing —> New plan—> Add pricing & products —> select Tiered Pricing
- Add by clicking on + Set Commitment
- Enter the number of units you want to set as your commitment
- Delete or edit by hovering with your mouse
Please Note
Commitment can be used for usage products with tiered-based pricing.
Commitments are counted in units and calculated based on the price per unit (the defined tier).
