Tiered Usage-Based pricing (TUP) is a subscription model in which your plan is defined by how much you use ApprovalMax.
Each feature plan: Standard, Advanced, and Premium is divided into Small, Medium, and Large plan sizes, based on the number of approved documents needed for your Organisation.
What are the plan sizes?
Each feature plan (Standard, Advanced, Premium) comes in three sizes, so you can choose the option that best suits your Organisation’s needs.
Your plan size is determined by one usage metric:
Approved documents: An approved document is any request in ApprovalMax that has been fully approved during your billing cycle. This can be a Bill, Purchase Order, Invoice, Expense, or another supported request type.
Only documents with the status Approved count toward your allowance.
Cancelled or Rejected requests don’t count.
Each approved Batch Payment request counts as one document.
You can choose from three plan sizes:
Small – up to 100 approved documents per month
Medium – up to 300 approved documents per month
Large – up to 500 approved documents per month
All plan sizes include the full set of ApprovalMax features, as specified in your selected plan, with ApprovalMax Capture and ApprovalMax Pay included at no additional cost.

Monthly vs annual billing
You can choose monthly or annual billing. Annual billing offers a discount compared to monthly billing.
Monthly document allowance: Your monthly allowance for approved documents is determined by your plan size. If you go over this allowance, the charge for the additional usage will be added to your next monthly invoice.
Annual document allowance: Your annual allowance for approved documents is determined by your plan size and equals 12 × the monthly limit. This means you can use more documents in some months and fewer in others, as long as the total for the year stays within your allowance. The charge for documents over the annual limit will be collected on the annual renewal date.
Example: If your Organisation is on a Small Standard plan, your monthly allowance is 100 documents. On annual billing, this gives you 1,200 documents for the next 12 months. If you approve 80 in one month and 120 in another, it balances out. Only if you exceed 1,200 in total for the year will any additional usage be added to your next annual invoice.
