Pricing and billing
Start here for a clear, step-by-step explanation of InAppify service charges, MTR fees, gateway deductions, settlements, and invoices
This section explains two different money flows. Once you keep them separate, the rest of the pricing model is much easier to understand.
1. Money you pay to InAppify
Your monthly invoice can contain:
- purchased feature-capacity charges;
- a fee on revenue earned through stores or personal gateways;
- invoice VAT.
2. Money InAppify pays out to you
When a customer pays through the shared InAppify gateway, InAppify receives the payment and settles your share after calculating the InAppify share, gateway cost, and tax allocation.
Invoices and settlements are independent. Customer-revenue settlements do not replace or offset InAppify service invoices.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between an invoice and a settlement?
An invoice is what you pay InAppify for its services. A settlement is the customer-payment revenue that InAppify pays out to you from the shared gateway.
In what order should I read this section?
Start with feature capacity. Then read external MTR if you use stores or personal gateways, shared-gateway settlement if you use the InAppify gateway, and finally the invoice guide.
