One-Time Purchase Pricing for Marketplace Apps
The CRM Marketplace now supports one-time purchase pricing for apps. This pricing model allows users to pay a single, upfront fee to install and use an app permanently, rather than subscribing to a recurring monthly or annual plan.
Why One-Time Pricing is Available
This model is particularly useful for certain types of apps, such as pre-built templates (Snapshots) or embeddable tools (Widgets). These assets are typically installed once and cannot be uninstalled or reversed, making a one-time purchase a logical and fair pricing structure for both developers and users.
For App Developers
When creating a new app in the developer portal, you can now configure one-time pricing plans.
- For apps with an "Agency & Sub-account" distribution type, you can set separate one-time fees: one price for the agency's initial installation and a different price for each sub-account where the agency chooses to install the app.
For Users and Agencies
You can now discover and filter apps in the Marketplace by their pricing model, including one-time purchase options.
- When you find an app with a one-time fee, you can complete the purchase and install it with a single payment. No recurring subscription will be created.
- Agencies can take advantage of bulk installation for their sub-accounts, with pricing structured specifically for that workflow.
