One-Time Price

There are two types of ‘One Time’ charge types:

One Time (EVERGREEN)

• The 'One Time(EVERGREEN)' charge type produces a one off charge that is not bound to any period of time.

One Time (TERMED)

• The 'One Time(TERMED) charge type produces a one off charge bound to a specified period of time ie 1 day, 2 days, 3 days etc.

For ‘One Time(TERMED)' charge type you will need to set the following:

• ‘Type Of Charge' = ‘One Time Termed’

• ‘Charge Trigger’ = Your Choice

• ‘Every’ the length of time, ie ‘Every 4 Days’ would mean a 4 day charge

• ‘Charge Type' keep set to 1

• The drop down list at the top right-hand side of the modal sets the ‘Term’ ie Days, Months etc.

Also make sure the ‘Auto Renew' button is off.

You will also need to configure a corresponding ‘One Time’ rate plan in Zuora with ‘Flat Fee Pricing’. Please see the example below. Note that you can put the price as $0 as the Limio Offer value will override the Zuora value.

Alternative way to configure a 'one time' offer

While the One-Time rate plan in Zuora satisfies many one-off offer use cases, some scenarios require a different configuration. This applies particularly when using the end date on the Zuora invoice to manage revenue recognition.

In this instance, the following configuration is necessary.

1. Configure your Limio Offer

Ensure the following settings in your Limio Offer configuration:

• Type of Charge: Recurring

• Charge Trigger: Start of Subscription

• The charge duration matches the period for which the one-time offer is active.

Additionally, ensure the Offer Term aligns with the settings in the Price Editor. Example configuration:

• Renewal Type: TERMED

• Renewal Trigger: EXTERNAL

• Term Length: 8

• Term Type: Weeks

• Auto Renew: FALSE

2. Configure your Zuora Rate Plan

Since the Zuora Rate Plan will be recurring, configure it as follows:

• Charge Model: Per Unit Pricing

• Unit of Measure (UOM): Each

• Default Quantity: 1

• Trigger Condition: Upon Service Activation

• End Date: Fixed Period after the Charge is triggered (Important)

  • Always set to 1 Billing Period

• Billing Period: Match your one-time offer period (e.g., 8 weeks)

• Billing Timing: In Advance

• Billing Day: Charge Trigger Day

• Billing Period Alignment: Align to Charge

You will also want to ensure that your Revenue Recognition Rule is set to Recognise upon invoicing.

This configuration ensures that while the subscription technically contains a recurring charge, it will only have one charge and have a fixed end date in the Zuora invoice for revenue recognition purposes.
