You are in charge of keeping the pricing of your app page up to date. You can do it via the CMS interface on your partner dashboard.
How does pricing work on Maestrano?
Maestrano displays pricing on each application page; this pricing, as stated in the general conditions accepted by each customer, is only indicative. Why? Because you, as an application provider, are in charge of your pricing.
When a user signs up to use your application, they will be redirected to your signup process and will have to chose between the pricing displayed on your website.
To create a new pricing details, simply click on the “+” button on the page.
This will expand a pricing menu. All the information you enter here will be displayed in the pricing section of your app page.
Name will appear in the purple section on the left;
Description is the right section (in the example above, it is the number of simultaneous users);
Display order:
Then you enter the pricing, currency and chose the type of plans you are proposing (per month per user, per hour, per GB, etc.)
If you tick the free trial box, it will indicate on your application that your application is eligible for a free trial. If it is unticked, this information will not be displayed on your application page.
Finally, click on save to record your new pricing.
Once you have saved a pricing, you can still modify the details by clicking on the correct line (name/currency); don’t forget to save any edit you want to do. Once an edit is saved, it is instantly changed on your application page (you may have to clear your cache to make it appear).
Let’s take an example:
Plan A is 12 USD in the US
Plan A is 25 AUD in Australia
Plan A is 10 GBP in the UK
Plan B is 10 AUD in Australia and you do not have specific pricing for anywhere else in the world
You need to create Plan A 3 times in your dashboard, with the same name and description and with a different pricing.
You create plan B only once.
