What is the purchase process for your customer?

This is the purchase process for your customer:

  1. Your customer will sign up directly at your custom domain or you can create workspace manually for them.

  2. Your customer will start 14 days free trial by default(it’s customerizable in partner settings)

  3. After the 14 days free trial, if your client failed to upgrade to your paid plan, then their workspace will downgrade to the free plan.

  4. If you have set up internal billing(using Stripe) or Billing URL(set up your own checkout page), your customer choose to upgrade to any of your paid plans, their payment or subscription will go 100% directly to your payment gateway.

  5. After you received the payment, you can choose to manually upgrade their workspace or automate the upgrade process(using built-in Stripe internal billing or call our partner API)

  6. Every workspace upgrade to your paid plan will need to pay the cost price( The cost price varies according to the different plan limits). UChat will deduce the cost price from your partner credit.

That’s the purchase cycle from your customer’s perspective.

Default plans

UChat offers 3 plans with different limits by default. It will help you get start selling more easily. If you are not happy with the plan limits we offer, you can customerize the plan, you will find more information about this in the later section.

Business plan

The plan limits is 1 bot, 1000 bot users, 5 members. and the cost of this plan is $10 per month.

Business Lite Plan

The plan limits is 1 bot, 10000 bot users, 5 members, and the cost of this plan is $30 per month.

Business Large plan

The plan limits is 5 bots, 50000 bot users, 10 members, and the cost of this plan is $100 per month.

Design your own plan & Calculate the cost

UChat offer the options that you can have your own plans.

UChat offers 3 variables you can change for your new plans.

  • Number of bots

  • Number of bot users per month

  • Number of members

The question will be how to calculate the cost of your new plan?

The cost of business plan, business lite, business large plan is a starting point. You can build your own plan limit on top of our 3 default plans.

For example, if you want to offer another separate plan to your customer, the new plan looks like this:

Business plus plan: 3 bots, 5 members, 2000 bot users.

So how you calculate the cost of this plan is:

  1. Default business plan is the closest to your plan limit.

  2. Start with a business plan which is $10 per month, which includes 1 bot, 5 members & 1000 bot users already.

  3. You have offered 3 bots, so you will need 2 extra bots, which cost $10 per month.

  4. Also you offered a total of 2000 bot users, and the cost for extra 1000 bot users is $5 per month.

  5. So the cost of your new plan is $10+$10+$5 = $25 per month

We also offer a price calculator, you can start calculate based on any of the default plan we offer.
