You create and edit plans in the Partner Dashboard, under your app's Plans section.Before you submit for review#
Check all of these before sending your app to Zid for review:Step 1: Choose the plan type#
Pick one of three types. The fields you fill in depend on which you choose.Free β no payment. Use it so Zid can review and test your app.
Recurring β a fixed price per period. Use it for most apps.
Usage-based β a starting price plus charges based on consumption.
Remember: all of your app's plans must be the same type. A free plan can sit alongside recurring plans, but recurring and usage-based plans cannot be mixed.Step 2: Fill in the shared fields#
Every plan needs these, in both Arabic and English:| Field | Rule |
|---|
| Plan name | Up to 50 characters. The Arabic name must be written in Arabic, the English name in English. Letters, numbers, spaces and . | - ( ) only. |
| Description | Between 50 and 300 characters. |
| Features | Between 1 and 5 lines. Each line up to 50 characters. |
Each feature is a pair β write it in Arabic and English together.Step 3: Fill in the fields for your plan type#
Free plan#
Nothing more to fill in. A free plan has no price, duration, trial, installation fee or offer. It renews automatically, so it does not expire.Recurring plan#
| Field | Rule |
|---|
| Price | At least 1 SAR, up to 120,000 SAR |
| Duration | Choose from the list: 1 to 11 months, or 1 year |
| Free trial | Optional. Up to 90 days |
| Installation fee | Optional. At least 1 SAR. See below |
| Offer | Optional. See Offers below |
Usage-based plan#
| Field | Rule |
|---|
| Price | At least 1 SAR. This is what the merchant pays when they subscribe |
| Duration | Fixed at 30 days β you cannot change it |
| Usage type | Calls, messages, orders, emails, or Other |
| Custom usage label | Required only if you choose Other. Up to 50 characters, in both languages |
Usage-based plans do not support free trials, installation fees or offers. A usage-based subscription has no end date β it continues until a charge goes unpaid. See Usage-based plans.Installation fee (one-time fee)#
In the dashboard this field is described as "the additional charges required at the first time of your app installation". It adds a one-off amount on top of the plan price, charged when a merchant first subscribes to your app.It is charged once per merchant, ever.Once a merchant has paid your app's installation fee, they will never be charged it again β not when they renew, not when they switch plans, and not when they resubscribe later.
Creating a new plan with a new installation fee does not let you charge an existing merchant again.
Deleting a plan and creating it again does not reset the fee.
Merchants who subscribed before you added the fee are never charged it.
If the fee is owed and has not been paid, the subscription does not activate.
Do not use the installation fee to sell packages or repeat purchases. It only works once per merchant.Offers#
Offers are available on recurring plans only. Choose one of two kinds:Buy X, get Y free β the merchant subscribes for the plan period and gets extra free time. The free period must be a whole number of months, or exactly 1 year, and it cannot be longer than the plan's own duration.Discount β a percentage off the plan price, up to 60%.Offers cannot be added to free plans or usage-based plans.Step 4: Submit your changes#
Plan changes are sent to Zid for review before they go live. You can save your work as a draft first and submit when you're ready.All limits at a glance#
