Managing your subscription plans

Managing your subscription plans

Zoho Marketing Automation has three plans: Standard, Professional, and Enterprise. We provide our users with an initial 14-day trial period, during which they can use and explore all product features without any feature restrictions.

After the trial period, you can choose one of the paid plans according to your marketing requirements. This help guide provides details about the available plans, how to switch between different plans, payment details, and the add-ons that are available.
  1. Standard plan: This plan is suitable for small businesses with between 1,000 and 50,000 contacts per month. You can use features like automation emails, basic website activity (without pop-ups), basic marketing planner without ROI, and basic customer journey builder (without advanced components).
  2. Professional plan: This plan is suitable for medium-size businesses with 50,000 to 100,000 contacts per month. You'll get all the features of the Standard plan as well as features like website activity with pop-ups, marketing planner with ROI, lead journey builder, lead attribution with ROI, and in-product tracking.
  3. Enterprise plan: This plan is suitable for large businesses with more than 100,000 contacts per month. You'll get all the features of the Professional plan and features like timezone based email scheduling, lead attribution reports, multiple trigger, flow control and action elements in journey and many other features.
 View pricing page to view the features available under each plan in detail.

 

You can also choose add-ons for these plans based on your business needs. If your business is too large for the higher end plans, then you can choose the basic plan along with the add-ons to get your work done.

 Add-Ons 

Visitors

You can analyze your visitors' online behavior and measure key website metrics using Zoho Marketing Automation. You can use this information to devise further marketing strategies. Zoho Marketing Automation enables you to record visitors based on your subscription plan and the number of contacts is included in that plan.
Quote
  1. For Standard plan, number of visitors = contact count*2
  2. For Professional plan, number of visitors = contact count*5
  3. For Enterprise plan, number of visitors =  contact count*10

Dedicated IP address

 You can choose to have a dedicated IP address to send campaigns on behalf of your organization/portal. Having a dedicated IP address can reduce emails being moved to spam folders. It will also improve your email reputation and increase email deliverability.
You can choose this add-on only in yearly subscription plan.

Purchase WhatsApp credits

WhatsApp business communications are powered by WhatsApp credits. You can buy credits as an add-on to your subscription and send WhatsApp messages to your target audience in any country. The cost to send one WhatsApp message varies by country and volume. Each conversation is charged as per the country code of the end-user.
 
Info
Irrespective of the WhatsApp credits, you can send limited WhatsApp campaigns per day based on the message limit and tier of the associated phone number.

 

We'll follow a pay-as-you-go model for WhatsApp marketing, and users can send campaigns whenever they need without any expiry. With WhatsApp chat rates based on conversations initiated through business, users have to pay for what they use.

What will happen to my unused WhatsApp credits?
 Unused WhatsApp credits will be carried forward to the next subscription period. These credits don't have an expiration period; you can use them whenever you want.
 
Notes
Note: WhatsApp charges for conversations and not individual messages. Conversations are 24-hour message threads between you and your customers. Conversations are opened and charged when messages you send to your users are delivered.
