# Service Pricing: Fixed, Recurring, and Unit-Based Options

> Configure one-time or recurring billing with fixed, tiered, or unit-based pricing for every service you sell in GrowCRM Products & Services.

The Pricing tab is where you define exactly how much customers pay and how often. GrowCRM's pricing model is built around two choices you make in sequence: the **Billing Type** (how often the customer is charged) and the **Price Type** (how the charge amount is calculated). The combination you choose determines which additional fields appear below, so the form stays focused on only what you need.

## Step 1 — Choose a billing type

| Billing Type                         | Behaviour                                                                                                                        |
| ------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Onetime Payment**                  | The customer pays a single charge at checkout. No further billing occurs.                                                        |
| **Recurring Payment (Subscription)** | The customer is billed on a repeating schedule you define. Billing continues until the customer or you cancels the subscription. |

## Step 2 — Choose a price type

| Price Type                | Behaviour                                                                                                                                                                        |
| ------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Single Fixed Price**    | One price with no variation. The customer sees a single amount and cannot adjust it.                                                                                             |
| **Multiple Fixed Prices** | Two or more named price tiers (e.g. "Basic", "Standard", "Premium"). The customer selects one tier. The checkout listing always shows the **lowest** tier as the starting price. |
| **Unit Price**            | A price per unit of work (e.g. per word, per page, per hour). The customer enters a quantity — or is defaulted to one you set — and the total is calculated automatically.       |

## Additional fields by combination

### Unit Price fields

When you select **Unit Price**, three extra fields appear regardless of whether the service is one-time or recurring.

| Field                | Description                                                                                             |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Unit Name**        | The label for a single unit, shown to the customer (e.g. "Word", "Page", "Hour").                       |
| **Default Quantity** | The quantity pre-filled at checkout. The customer can change it within the allowed range.               |
| **Minimum Quantity** | The lowest quantity the customer is permitted to order.                                                 |
| **Maximum Quantity** | The highest quantity the customer is permitted to order. Leave blank to allow an unlimited upper bound. |

### Recurring Payment fields

When you select **Recurring Payment**, two scheduling fields and an optional setup fee appear for every price (or price tier).

| Field                       | Description                                                                                                                                                    |
| --------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Billing Cycle**           | The unit of time between charges: **Week**, **Month**, or **Year**.                                                                                            |
| **Recurring Interval**      | How many billing cycles pass between each charge. For example, Billing Cycle = Month and Recurring Interval = 2 means the customer is billed every two months. |
| **Service has a setup fee** | Toggle this on to charge an additional one-time fee alongside the very first payment. Enter the setup fee amount in the field that appears.                    |

## Multiple Fixed Prices

When you choose **Multiple Fixed Prices**, each tier is configured independently. This lets you offer a "Basic" plan billed monthly and a "Premium" plan billed annually, for example, all within a single service.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Configure your first tier">
    Enter the **Amount** and **Name** for the first price tier. If the service is recurring, also set its **Billing Cycle**, **Recurring Interval**, and **Setup Fee** (if applicable).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add more tiers">
    Click **Add Another Price** to append a new tier. Repeat for as many tiers as you need.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review checkout display">
    GrowCRM automatically displays the **lowest price tier** as the "starting from" price on checkout listing pages. Make sure your tiers are named clearly so customers understand the difference.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Each price tier in a Multiple Fixed Prices service can have its own billing cycle and setup fee when the service is recurring. This means a single service can offer a monthly Basic plan and an annual Premium plan simultaneously.
</Note>

## Quick-reference matrix

The table below summarises which extra fields appear for each billing type and price type combination.

|               | Single Fixed Price                            | Multiple Fixed Prices     | Unit Price                                             |
| ------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Onetime**   | Amount only                                   | Amount + Name per tier    | Amount + Unit Name + Default / Min / Max Qty           |
| **Recurring** | Amount + Billing Cycle + Interval + Setup Fee | All of the above per tier | All unit fields + Billing Cycle + Interval + Setup Fee |

<Tip>
  If you are selling a service where clients order different volumes each time — like copywriting charged per word — use **Unit Price** with a sensible default quantity so customers don't have to start from zero.
