  • Dimagi's Gateway (Excluding Enterprise Level): Messages are charged a per-message fee by the local telecommunications provider. The SMS gateway fee will vary depending on the country and the telecommunication network, although it typically falls between .01 USD and .10 USD.

  • Your Gateway (or Enterprise Level on Dimagi Gateway): Software plans that have their own gateway have an unlimited amount of incoming and outgoing messages. While these plans are not subject to telecommunications' fees, Dimagi charges an additional $.01 (US) per message on all incoming and outgoing messages.

Outgoing SMS refers to SMS sent by CommCareHQ to the mobile users, other registered beneficiaries, or end-clients. Incoming SMS refers to SMS sent by users to CommCareHQ.

Subscribing to a software plan

  • Please note that you need to create a project space before you can subscribe to a software plan. Learn how to create a project space at https://dimagi.atlassian.net/wiki/x/fCXKfw.

  • Log into CommCareHQ and go to the project space you want to subscribe to a plan. 

  • Click the settings wheel at the top right of the page, then click "Current Subscription".

  • Click the blue "Change Plan" button and select and confirm your plan.

  • Please note that your invoice will be sent to your Billing Contact. To make sure the billing contact information is accurate, visit your Project settings>Billing Information page. If there aren’t any Billing Contact, invoices will by default be sent to the web admin users on the project.

Monthly and Annual Billing

  • You can choose to be billed on a monthly pay-as-you-go basis or pre-pay for a year in advance to benefit from our discounted Annual pricing.

  • 30 day minimum commitment for Monthly billing: Please note that all Monthly billed plans require a 30 day minimum commitment. In other words, after subscribing to a plan, you can only downgrade after 30 days. If you try to downgrade during the 30 day window, your plan will be scheduled to auto-downgrade at the end of the 30 day window.

  • Important: Please refer to our Billing terms before signing up for a monthly or annually billed subscription.

Extending the software plan you had as part of an Implementation Bundle

If your service agreement with Dimagi is about to end but you would like to retain your CommCare HQ subscription and keep your existing functionalities, you should follow these steps:

  • One month before your contract end date, you will receive a reminder email from CommCareHQ mentioning that your contracted subscription is about to end.

  • When you receive the email, click the link provided to go to the subscription page (https://www.commcarehq.org/a/[project name]/settings/project/subscription/), and hit the renew button. Choose your current plan or a higher plan if other functionalities will be needed. Using the "renew" button ensures that your subscription will be renewed as soon as your current contract runs out and that there will be no interruption in your use of functionalities. Even if you renew before the end of your contract, you won’t get charged for the new plan until the current one expires.
