Add-ons allow businesses to offer a modular pricing structure where customers pay a base plan fee plus additional charges for features or services they choose to enable. Examples include additional user seats, premium support, extra storage, or an advanced feature module.<\/p>\n<h2>How Add-ons Work in Zoho Billing<\/h2>\n<p>Add-ons are configured in the Zoho Billing product catalogue and associated with one or more plans. When a customer subscribes, they can select applicable add-ons during checkout or add them later through the customer portal or via a direct sales process. Add-ons are billed at the same interval as the base plan, unless configured with a different frequency, and appear as separate line items on the customer&#8217;s invoice.<\/p>\n<h2>Add-ons and Revenue Expansion<\/h2>\n<p>Add-ons are a core tool for expanding revenue from existing customers without requiring them to upgrade to a higher-tier plan. By offering targeted add-ons for features that are valuable to specific customer segments, businesses can increase the average revenue per user incrementally. Zoho Billing tracks add-on revenue separately, making it easy to analyse which add-ons drive the most expansion revenue.<\/p>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\"><strong>Can a customer add or remove an add-on during the billing cycle?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes. Customers can add or remove add-ons at any time through the customer portal or via an admin action in Zoho Billing. Changes mid-cycle are handled with proration: the customer is charged a prorated amount for the remaining days if they add an add-on, or credited for any unused days if they remove one, keeping the billing fair regardless of when changes are made.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\"><strong>Can the same add-on have a different billing interval from the base plan?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In Zoho Billing, add-ons are typically billed at the same interval as the subscription plan. However, some configurations may allow one-time add-on charges that are billed immediately rather than recurring with the plan. Check Zoho Billing&#8217;s current add-on configuration options for the exact billing interval flexibility available in your setup.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An optional extra product or feature in Zoho Billing that can be added to a subscription alongside the base plan, billed at an additional charge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"seo_title":"Add-on | Zoho Billing Glossary | Aaxonix","seo_description":"An optional extra product or feature in Zoho Billing that can be added to a subscription alongside the base plan, billed at an additional charge.","seo_keyword":"add-on zoho billing","seo_faqs":"","term_type":"","glossary_related":"","glossary_links":""},"glossary_category":[1262],"class_list":["post-5301","glossary","type-glossary","status-publish","hentry","glossary_category-zoho-billing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary\/5301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/glossary"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"glossary_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary_category?post=5301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
