Series: Billing and Invoicing

Monetization Options

The ISV applications are add-on items to a Genesys Cloud subscription that streamline or automate monetization and are invoiced on the customer’s normal billing cycle. The two main types of ISV applications are as follows:

  1. ISV client applications: These applications are branded, pre-built applications in Genesys Cloud Admin UI (Admin -> Integrations -> Add New), which gate access for users by Genesys Cloud licenses. The ISV client applications run inside Genesys Cloud for seamless user experiences.
  2. Genesys Cloud Embeddable Framework applications: The embeddable framework speeds up the creation of embedded client integrations that extend Genesys Cloud to be integrated with other applications, including CRMs, ERPs, or other web applications.
Note: The ISV applications are only available for purchase from Genesys.

ISV client applications—usage type: commitments, Month-to-Month (MTM), and on-demand

The ISV client applications—usage type (aka usage applications) is eligible for subscription commitments on annual prepay and annual MTM subscriptions. When users log in to Genesys Cloud, Genesys tabulates the usage of a vendor’s application by the presence of the vendor’s unique license(s) during the customer’s monthly billing period. For month-to-month subscriptions, Genesys does not bill for any usage of your ISV application where a unique permission is not applied to a user. Each vendor of a usage application is solely responsible for enforcing their Genesys Cloud license(s) for accessing their application. If a user does not have the application permission, the user must not have access to or use your application. To support the commitments of the usage application, AppFoundry vendors are responsible for setting the following prices:

  • Standard rate: Price per unit based on committed usage.
  • On-demand usage: Billed at the committed per-unit price.
Note: Commitments are the driving factor in discounts.

ISV client applications—non-usage-based type

Based on the presence of the ISV application on the Genesys Cloud subscription, Genesys bills for the usage of the ISV Application on a fixed monthly fee.

ISV client applications—metered type: commitments, MTM, and on-demand

ISV client applications—metered type (aka metered application) are eligible for subscription commitments on annual prepay and annual MTM subscriptions. The vendors tabulate usage of their metered application. For month-to-month subscriptions, Genesys does not bill for any usage not reported for your ISV application. MTM subscriptions are not eligible for commitments and are billed only for the usage at the non-committed rate. To support the commitments of the metered application, AppFoundry vendors are responsible for setting the following prices per metered unit:

  • Standard rate: Price per unit based on committed usage.
  • On-demand usage: Billed at the committed per-unit price.
Note: Commitments are the driving factor in discounts.
