# Plans and Pricing

> Create customer plans, check minimum prices, add currency prices and manage default assignments. Learn what changes for existing customers and when a plan can be deleted.

A plan defines what your customer pays per device per month and per SMS. Your first plan was created during setup. In the plans section, you can review it, add other offers and set prices in multiple currencies.

 Do not confuse customer pricing with your own platform costs. Editing a price here does not change your service terms with LiveGPSTracks.

 **Our example.** We continue with the fictional Northline GPS service. The Fleet plan costs 5 EUR per device per month and 0.10 EUR per SMS. We will also add Fleet Plus. All figures are illustrative, not an offer of current platform prices.

 ## The plan list

 Open **Tarifs** (the current menu label for plans) in the top menu. The list shows names, monthly device prices, SMS prices and any additional currency prices. The default plan has a label and appears before the others.

 Click a plan name or choose **Action → Settings** to open its details. The same menu contains the commands to make it the default or delete it.

 Use **Search and sorting** to find a plan by name. Without **Exact search**, part of the name is sufficient. You can sort by date added, name, device price or SMS price, and select ascending order. Price sorting does not convert amounts to a common currency: check the currency of the figures you compare.

 *Two demonstration plans. Fleet remains the default.*

 ## Create an additional plan

 Find **Create new plan** on the right of the list page.

 1. Enter a **Plan name** that distinguishes this offer from the others.
2. In **Price**, enter the monthly service price for **one device**, not the total for an account or fleet.
3. In **SMS cost**, enter the price of one message. This is a separate price, not an included SMS allowance.
4. Check **Currency**. The amounts above use the selected currency.
5. Select **Allow test device** or **Default for new website** if needed. Both settings are explained below.
6. Click **Create** and check the new plan in the list.

 For Fleet Plus, our example uses 7.50 EUR per month and 0.10 EUR per SMS. Calling a plan “Plus” does not enable additional platform features: the name identifies your offer rather than switching software capabilities.

 Use a decimal point, with no currency symbol or thousands separators, for example `7.50`.

 *An additional offer in euros. Test-device permission and default assignment are not selected.*

 ## Minimum prices and saved values

 Monthly device service and SMS have separate minimum prices. **The regular plan form raises a price below the minimum to the permitted value when saving**, rather than retaining the amount you entered. Always check the saved prices after creating or editing a plan.

 Unlike the first-time setup wizard, this screen does not have the same visual breakdown of platform cost and estimated income. Do not treat an entered figure as final until you have checked the saved details. If the resulting price is unclear, ask support about the minimums for your account and currency.

 Do not enter a zero device or SMS price to create a free offer. When editing, a currency price pair is saved only if **both prices are greater than zero**. A partial or zero-valued pair is not a separate free version of the plan.

 ## Edit an existing plan

 The left side of the details page shows saved prices, test-device permission, the creation date and usage counts. The **find** links beside websites and users open the corresponding lists filtered by this plan.

 The **Edit plan** form is on the right. Change the required fields and click **Edit**, then check the saved prices on the left again.

 **You are editing a shared plan for all customers assigned to it.** To offer a special price to one customer or a group, create a separate plan and assign it to those users. Changing the shared plan affects their future calculations along with those of other customers using it.

 Saving the plan does not itself charge or refund money, or recalculate recorded expenses. New prices are used by subsequent operations that read this plan. There is no “effective from” date field in the form.

 *Existing euro prices are filled in; no additional RUB price pair has been set yet.*

 ## Prices in multiple currencies

 A single plan can have several currency price pairs. You do not need a differently named plan just to add another currency.

 The edit form contains **Default currency** and **Cost in …** sections. The platform determines which currencies are available; the interface language does not. Our demonstration screenshots show EUR and RUB; your panel may offer a wider selection.

 To add a currency price pair:

 1. Keep the prices you already use filled in.
2. Enter **both amounts** in the required currency section: the monthly price and SMS price.
3. The default currency must also have two positive prices.
4. Click **Edit** and check that all required currencies appear in the saved details.

 In our example, Fleet keeps its prices of 5 EUR and 0.10 EUR per SMS, while its RUB prices are 300 RUB and 4 RUB per SMS. These are independently chosen demonstration prices, not a conversion at current exchange rates.

 **Saving updates the entire set of currency price pairs.** Clearing a price or leaving a zero in a previously configured additional currency can remove that price pair. Check every currency you use before saving, not just the one you changed.

 Calculations use the price in the customer's currency when that price pair exists. Otherwise, the base price is converted using the platform's exchange rates. A missing price pair does not prevent customers from being served in that currency. Set an explicit price for a predictable fixed amount.

 Default currency belongs to the plan. Changing it does not convert an existing customer's balance or change your payout settlement currency. However, it is used when determining the currency of new customers, including registrations on a website using this plan, so do not change it unnecessarily.

 *One plan with two currency price pairs. The demonstration database has one linked website and no customers yet.*

 ## Default plans and assignments

 Selecting **Default for new website** when creating a plan, or choosing **Set as default plan**, makes it your hosting account's default. The previous plan loses that label.

 This provides an initial selection for new websites and a fallback when a user is added without an explicit plan. **Existing websites and users are not automatically moved to it.**

 Websites and customers have separate plan assignments. A website's plan is used for new self-registrations. To change an existing customer's plan, open that customer's record in **Users**. Changing the website's plan alone does not move its existing customers.

 ## Allow test device

 This setting allows a customer to add a test device through the customer interface. It neither creates a device automatically nor makes every device free. In the checked connection workflow, a customer can have at most one of their own test devices at a time.

 Do not confuse test-device permission with zero plan prices. Both prices still need to be set for a regular paid offer. Connecting and managing test devices is covered separately in the devices chapter.

 ## Delete a plan

 Choose **Action → Delete** and confirm. The system will not delete a plan if it is:

 - the default plan;
- used by at least one website;
- assigned to at least one user.

 ![Warning that the default plan cannot be deleted](https://hosting-help.livegpstracks.com/storage/projects/45/pages/510/2026/09/ec26aee4-8cd0-40de-9a1c-775d880e4c89.webp)

 *Deletion is rejected because Fleet is the default plan.*

 First choose a different default and reassign the linked websites and users. Use the usage counts and **find** links to check those assignments. Deleting a plan also removes its additional currency prices; this is not an operation for deleting recorded expense history.

 After configuring a plan, check the price and currency for at least one customer assigned to it. This lets you see the result of the assignment, not just the contents of the edit form.
