Prerequisites
Before working with tariffs, make sure that:

⚠️ Important: creating and editing tariffs is not available under an administrator account — only under the owner account.
Tariff types in IZI
IZI provides 4 tariff types:
- Per-minute
- Fixed
- Subscription
- Package
Each type solves its own tasks and is used in specific scenarios.
Per-minute tariff
A per-minute tariff is a tariff where the client pays for the actual number of minutes used.
Per-minute tariff specifics
- Used for the auto extension function of any other tariff
- Only one per zone is allowed
- You set a price per hour, the system automatically calculates the per-minute price
- There is a minimum number of minutes to start the tariff
(typically 10–15 minutes, minimum is 5 minutes) - In case of early session end:
- Unused time is returned to the client’s bonus balance
Where it is used
- Auto extension after fixed tariffs, packages or subscriptions end
- Flexible payment for clients who don’t want strict time limits
Fixed tariff
A fixed tariff is a tariff with a predefined time interval
(for example from 08:00 to 12:00 — “Cyber morning”).
Fixed tariff specifics
- Multiple fixed tariffs can be configured for the same zone
- You set the price for the entire time range
- The price can:
- differ for different days of the week
- be set separately for specific dates
- The tariff can be activated at any time inside the interval
(for example, the client sits down at 09:30 and can stay until 12:00) - When the time interval ends:
- The session automatically ends if it was not extended with another tariff
- In case of early session end:
- Remaining time is lost
- No refund is provided
Subscription
A subscription is a tariff where the paid time can be used in several sessions.
Subscription specifics
- Multiple subscriptions can be configured for the same zone
- The price is set:
- for the total amount of time
- optionally per days of the week or specific dates
- It can be activated any time within its validity period
- In case of early session end:
- Remaining time is kept
- It can be used in subsequent sessions
- When the validity period ends:
- All unused time is lost
Where it is used
- For regular customers
- For selling large time bundles with the ability to come multiple times
Package
A package is a tariff that starts working from the activation moment and runs for a strictly defined period.
Package specifics
- Multiple packages can be configured for the same zone
- You set the price for the entire package time
- The price can depend on:
- the day of the week
- specific dates
- In case of early session end:
- All remaining time is lost
- No refund is provided
Key differences between tariffs
| Tariff type | Split across sessions | Time refund | Tied to time of day | Used for auto extension |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Per-minute | No | ✅ Yes (to bonuses) | ❌ No | ✅ Yes |
| Fixed | No | ❌ No | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
| Subscription | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes (until expiry) | ❌ No | ❌ No |
| Package | No | ❌ No | ❌ No | ❌ No |
Common situations
| Situation | What happens |
|---|---|
| The client did not extend a fixed tariff | The session ends automatically |
| The client ended a subscription session earlier | Remaining time is kept for the next session |
| The client ended a package session earlier | All remaining time is lost |
| Fixed tariff time is over but the client keeps playing | Auto extension with the per-minute tariff is applied (if configured) |
