Annual Plans vs. Monthly Plans

With the launch of Annual Plans, you now have two ways to subscribe to Qryptal Cloud. If your volumes are low, Annual will almost always be more cost-effective. For higher volumes, the right choice depends on whether your usage is predictable by year or by month.

Annual Plans (New!)

• Pay once per year in advance (starting at $99/year)
• Get a fixed yearly quota of secure codes (e.g., 250, 500, 1,000, 2,500, 5,000 or custom)
• Increase codes/users quota anytime during the year
• Unused codes carry forward into the next year
• Best if:
  • Your annual volumes are low (<2,500 codes/year)
  • Yearly usage is consistent but varies monthly (e.g., seasonal or project-based)
  • You require predictable budgeting — one annual bill, no surprises

Monthly Plans (Starting at $50/month)

• Commit to a monthly minimum quota (e.g., 250 codes for $50/month)
• Exceed your quota anytime, with additional usage billed the following month
• Unused quota does not carry forward month-to-month
• Best if:
  • Usage is steady each month with only occasional bursts
  • You prefer to match costs directly to ongoing operations

🎯 Simple Rule of Thumb

• Annual = low volumes or seasonal/variable demand (universities, training programs, government tenders)
• Monthly = steady operational needs (HR, payroll, compliance certificates)

Which Plan Works Best for You?

Let’s look at three real-world scenarios:

📌 Example 1: Training Institute (Low Volumes: ~500 Codes/Year)

Scenario:
A training institute issues ~500 secure documents per year (course completion certificates). Usage is steady but relatively low.

Monthly Plan:

• Entry: 250 codes / $50 per month → $600 per year
• Cost/Code ≈ $1.20
• Drawback: Higher cost and wasted quota in quiet months

Annual Plan:

• Buy 500 codes upfront → $154/year
• Cost/Code ≈ $0.31
• Lower cost, and unused codes roll over into the next year

✅ Recommendation: Annual works much better for low annual volumes (<2,500 codes).

📌 Example 2: HR Certificates (Consistent Monthly Volumes: ~900/Month)

Scenario:
An HR services firm issues ~900 secure documents every month (employment letters, payslips, HR certificates).

Monthly Plan:

• Standard: 900 codes / $150 per month → $1,800 per year
• Cost/Code ≈ $0.167
• Perfect fit since usage is smooth and predictable

Annual Plan:

• Equivalent annual quota ~11,000 codes → $2,310/year
• Cost/Code ≈ $0.21
• More expensive, with no benefit since usage is steady

✅ Recommendation: Monthly is more efficient when usage is consistent every month.

📌 Example 3: University Certificates (Seasonal / Variable Volumes: ~6,000/Year)

Scenario:
A university issues ~6,000 secure codes per year, mostly twice a year during semester-end. In those months, ~3,000 codes are required at once, with low activity otherwise.

Monthly Plan:

• Standard: 900 codes/month → $150/month = $1,800/year
• Regular months: unused quota expires
• Exam months: need 3,000 codes, far above the 900 quota → extra billing for 2,100 codes (~$420) per exam month
• Total cost significantly higher with unused quota for most of the months and excess fees for few months

Annual Plan:

• Buy 6,000 codes upfront → $1,300/year
• Codes can be used any time during the year
• All 3,000 codes needed in exam months are covered with no extra billing
• Unused codes roll over into the next year

✅ Recommendation: Annual is far more efficient for seasonal or project-based usage.
