Zuora plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Launch | Free | 3 | Entry tier |
| Scale | Free | 3 | +$0/month, 3 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.
Launch

Scale
FreeOver Launch, this tier adds:

Where Zuora stops being free

People bring Zuora in for a software company whose contracts routinely change mid term and whose current billing tool cannot prorate an amendment correctly, a business moving from perpetual licences to subscriptions that needs both the billing and the revenue recognition to hold up under audit, a usage based product where metered consumption has to be rated against tiers and commitments before it can be invoiced, a group billing across several legal entities and currencies that has been reconciling invoices in spreadsheets. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Zuora are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Before you pay for Zuora
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 2 tiers between Free and Free, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Zuora against the tools that do have one before committing.
Zuora runs on web, api, and is published by Zuora Inc of Redwood City, CA. The full record is on the Zuora review, and the rest of the category is under best accounting tools.
