Plans & billing

Each shop has its own plan, so some can run on Free and others on Pro.

#Free vs Pro

The commission is the only difference. Free has no limit on objects or sales. Yearly costs ten months and gives you twelve.

#How the 5% is taken

On Free, your vendor sends Plurion 5% of what the buyer actually paid, at the moment of the sale, the way it pays a split partner. It’s worked out after any sale, promo code or loyalty discount, and rounded down. Nothing is invoiced and nothing builds up. It’s one reason your vendor asks for the DEBIT permission.

• Charged: sales by your Plurion vendors, gacha pulls (on the pull price), and store credit or gift cards bought at your Plurion Terminal (once, when bought).
• Never charged: sales imported from another system, or mirrored live from CasperVend or the Marketplace, since they didn’t go through a Plurion object.
• Small sales: under L$20, the 5% rounds down to 0 and nothing is sent.

On Splits, the 5% shows as a locked line, Plurion fee (see The Plurion fee rule). It counts in the total, so on Free your own split rules can share at most 95% of a sale.

If the terminal answers something else

The terminal says	What to do
“[Plurion] busy with another payer - try again in a few seconds.”	It serves one payer at a time. Wait a few seconds and touch it again.
“[Plurion] session expired - touch the terminal again to start over.”	More than 90 seconds passed between two steps. Nothing was charged. Start again.
“[Plurion] no Plurion shop on your account yet - touch again and pick "Sign up" to get started.”	This avatar owns no shop. Sign up first, or come back on the avatar that owns the shop.
“[Plurion] backend error (…) - your payment is recorded; the owner will sort your Pro time.”	Your L$ reached Plurion, but the time wasn’t added automatically. Plurion is alerted and adds it by hand. To follow up, write on Discord with the time you paid.

#Your Pro time

Pro is prepaid time. Nothing renews on its own, and nothing is taken from your wallet. Pay again whenever you like. New days add to what’s left, so paying early wastes nothing.

#Your Billing page

On your Hub, click Billing (next to Edit profile and Settings). Each shop you own has a card: Free, or Pro with “Pro · expires in N days” and the end date. History lists every payment. You can’t pay from this page.
