Understanding Plans
Free, Standard, Pro, and Managed tiers explained.
The four tiers

Node pricing
A "node" is one POS terminal. Node pricing is per-terminal per-month. Volume discounts apply: 50+ nodes get 15% off, 200+ nodes get 25% off. Your HQ server is included at the account level — you don't pay a node fee for it.
Vertical packs
Vertical packs (like Pulse Pharma) add 30–40% to your base tier price. They include industry-specific pages, compliance frameworks, and specialized monitoring.
Annual billing
Pay annually and get 2 months free (effectively 17% off). Annual billing is available for all paid tiers.
