Seat-based pricing

Definition: A pricing model where you pay per user login, sometimes called per-seat or per-user pricing. Adding a team member raises the bill; removing one lowers it.

Why it matters when comparing prices

Seat-based pricing punishes growth in headcount, so model the bill at your twelve-month team size, not today's. Watch for seat minimums — Monday.com requires three seats on paid plans — and contrast with unlimited-user models like Xero, where you pay for features instead of logins. Always ask what guests, viewers, and your accountant cost.
