Flexprice

Stop letting rigid billing systems slow down your product roadmap. If you're spending valuable engineering cycles building and maintaining custom billing logic instead of focusing on your core product, Flexprice offers a better way. It's a developer-first platform designed to handle the complexities of modern pricing models – from usage-based metering to feature entitlements – giving you the control and flexibility to launch and iterate pricing strategies fast.

Flexprice works with your existing stack. It acts as a flexible layer on top of payment processors like Stripe or Chargebee, managing the intricate details of metering, pricing rules, credits, and feature access, so your team doesn't have to reinvent the wheel. Whether you choose our cloud offering or self-host for maximum control, you get the tools to move from pricing idea to implementation rapidly.

Key Capabilities

• ⚙️ Track Usage Accurately: Define and meter granular events (like API calls, compute time, or custom actions) in real-time. Our system is built to reliably handle millions of events, providing the accurate data needed for fair usage-based billing.

• 💰 Design Flexible Pricing Models: Easily create, test, and iterate on usage-based, seat-based, credit-based, or hybrid plans. Define complex pricing logic, set up tiers, and manage custom plans or overrides per customer, often without writing new backend code.

• 🔑 Control Feature Access: Precisely manage feature entitlements (Boolean flags, metered access, configuration values) based on plans or individual customer needs. Enforce limits and gate access directly within your application using our SDKs, eliminating the need for custom-built permission systems for billing tiers.

• 🎟️ Manage Credit Systems: Implement versatile prepaid or promotional credit workflows. Configure rules for granting credits, setting thresholds for automatic top-ups, and managing expiration, simplifying bundles, trials, or partner promotions.

• 🔗 Integrate Seamlessly: Connect Flexprice effortlessly using developer-friendly SDKs (available for popular languages), webhooks, and robust APIs. It’s designed to fit neatly into your existing architecture, working alongside tools like Stripe, Chargebee, Snowflake, CRMs, and data warehouses.

• 🔓 Deploy Your Way (Cloud or Self-Hosted): Choose the deployment model that fits your needs. Opt for our managed cloud service for convenience or self-host Flexprice on your own infrastructure for complete control over data, security, and customization, leveraging its open architecture.

• 🌍 Scale Globally: Expand into new markets with built-in support for multiple currencies and foundational capabilities for handling regional tax rules and compliance requirements, reducing the manual overhead of internationalization.

How Teams Use Flexprice

1. Launching a Usage-Based API Service: A team building a new data processing API needs to charge based on the volume of data processed and the number of API calls. They use Flexprice's SDKs to send usage events for each transaction. Flexprice meters this usage in real-time and calculates the correct invoice amount based on the defined pricing tiers, integrating with Stripe for payment processing. This allows them to launch with sophisticated pricing from day one without a lengthy custom billing build.

2. Experimenting with Tiered Feature Access: A SaaS company wants to test a new "Pro" plan that offers higher API rate limits and access to an exclusive reporting feature. Using Flexprice, they define the new plan, set the metered limits for API calls, and create a feature flag for the reporting tool. They can then easily assign specific beta customers to this plan and monitor usage, iterating on the offering based on real data before a full launch – all configurable within Flexprice.

3. Offering Enterprise Credits & Custom Deals: To close a large enterprise deal, a sales team needs to offer a custom package including a block of prepaid credits for premium support and specific feature access not available in standard plans. The operations team uses Flexprice to grant the specific credit amount, set up the custom feature entitlements for that single customer account, and configure the billing cycle, ensuring accurate invoicing reflects the negotiated terms without manual workarounds.

Focus on Your Product, Not Plumbing

Building and maintaining billing infrastructure is a complex, time-consuming task that diverts engineering resources from core product innovation. Flexprice provides the specialized, flexible components you need to implement sophisticated pricing strategies quickly and reliably. By handling the intricacies of metering, pricing logic, credits, and entitlements, Flexprice frees your developers to focus on building features that deliver unique value to your customers.
