How to Include Listings in a SaaS Plan

Overview

The Listings add-on enables you to integrate business directory and enhanced visibility services directly into your SaaS subscription plans. By embedding Listings within a plan, you provide clients with immediate access to this feature upon subscription, helping you increase recurring revenue and deliver added value without requiring separate sales.

Key Benefits

Including Listings in your SaaS plans offers several advantages:

• Automatic Provisioning: Clients receive Listings automatically when they subscribe.
• Upsell Opportunities: Easily position Listings as part of premium or higher-tier plans.
• Streamlined Delivery: No manual setup is needed—Listings are enabled instantly.
• Increased MRR: Build premium features into recurring plans to boost revenue.
• Simple Configuration: Add or remove Listings from plans with just a few clicks.

Prerequisites

Before adding Listings to a SaaS plan, ensure you meet the following requirements:

• You must be on a Pro plan and have your SaaS plans configured.
• Your Stripe account must be connected at the agency level.

Note: Once your agency Stripe account is connected, it cannot be changed later. Make sure you connect the correct Stripe account.

How to Add Listings to a SaaS Plan

Follow these steps to include Listings in any SaaS plan:

1. From the left-hand navigation bar in Agency View, click SaaS Configurator.
2. Locate the plan you want to edit and click Edit Details.
3. Navigate to the Addons section.
4. Check the box labeled Listings to include it in the plan.
5. Click Save Changes to confirm.

Important: You will be charged for deploying these services. Sub-accounts subscribing to the plan will not be charged extra for Listings. Be sure to incorporate your margins into the SaaS plan’s price.

Client Setup After Purchase

Once a client purchases a plan that includes Listings, all setup steps—such as managing Listings and client notifications—remain the same as with a standard Listings purchase.

Note: This change only applies to new clients who sign up after you’ve updated the plan. Existing clients are not affected.

Viewing Subscribed Locations

To see which locations have subscribed to your Listings offer:

1. In Agency View, click Settings in the bottom left.
2. Select Billing from the Settings menu.
