How Currents Billing and Pricing Works
Last updated
Currents has a flexible subscription-based billing model. It is designed to allow different types of customers to find a convenient plan that matches their needs.
The plans are based on the number of test recordings and the number of team members.
Test recording is a result of running a . It includes:
Execution details - test outcome, timing data, error details and metadata for all the included attempts;
Attachments - screenshots, videos, trace files, performance reports and any other attachment.
recordings do not count for billing purpose. Number of attempts or the attachments volume for not affect billing.
Every account associated with your organization is considered a team member for billing purposes. Each plan has a predetermined limit of seats (Team Members). You can purchase additional seats, up to 30 seats total, using Billing & Usage section.
If you need more seats please contact us at .
For a ballpark estimate, count the number of it and test statements in your source code and multiply by average number of CI runs.
Test Recording Volume = it or test statements x CI runs per month
You pay a monthly fee for the selected plan. For example consider a 10K plan that costs $49:
we charge a $49 prepayment for the first 10K test recordings;
we charge an Extra Usage fee for every additional 1K tests (or portion of it) at the end of usage cycle.
The usage cycle resets each month when you renew the subscription.

...and so on
Annual Subscriptions
You pay an annual fee (with a discount) for the selected plan. For example consider a 10K plan that costs $539/year:
we charge a $539 prepayment for the 10K test recordings available each month;
if you record more than 10K test recordings in any month, we will charge the Extra Usage fee for every additional 1K tests (or portion of it) at the end of usage cycle.

The usage cycle resets each month on the day of subscription creation.
We will charge the Extra Usage fee for every additional 1K tests (or portion of it) at the end of usage cycle. The price for the extra usage unit depends on the plan and varies.
When your organization start incurring Extra Usage fee Currents sends a period email notification to organization owners with an alert. Additionally, you can set up usage warning in Billing & Usage section of the dashboard.
Depending on the Usage and Billing Cycle (see below) and payment method, we will charge the fee on Monthly, Quarterly or Annual Basis.
Enterprise Plans allows customizing the terms and cadence of billing and usage cycle, in addition to premium support, unlimited seats and other contract customizations.
Usage Cycle - defines when usage counter resets. For example:
Monthly Usage Cycle resets every month, usually on subscription start day.
Annual Usage Cycle resets every year, usually on a contract renewal.
Billing Cycle - defines how often we invoice or charge customers: monthly, annually or every couple of years. Usually Billing Cycle is bound to contracts renewal date.
You can mix different types of Usage Cycle and Billing Cycle based on your needs. For example:

We offer tiered contracts for better estimating the potential costs and reducing the paperwork overhead.
With a tiered contract, we will activate a different tier as soon as you reach the previous tier's threshold. Each next tier has an embedded discount, you will know in advance the max potential amount you pay.
For example, consider a 3-tier contract - the initial payment is $10,000 for 1MM test records. The next-tier charges kick in only if and after you exceed the previous tier threshold.
Tier 1
1MM test records
$10,000 on subscription creation
Tier 2
1.5MM test record
$4,000 after exceeded 1MM test records
Tier 3
2MM test records
$3,000 after exceeding 1.5MM test records
