How to access on Fynd Commerce

Commerce Panel → Company → Settings → Billing

Introduction

Fynd Commerce uses a prepaid billing model. Subscription fees are due at the beginning of each 30-day billing cycle, meaning you pay upfront before using platform services for the upcoming period.

Payment Grace Period and Account Freeze Policy

If a subscription payment is missed, the following timeline applies:

  • Days 1–7 (Grace Period): Your account remains fully active. For example, if your payment was due on May 31, you have until June 6 to pay without any service disruption.
  • Days 8–14 (Partial Freeze): If the payment is still outstanding, your account is partially frozen. The following services become inaccessible: platform services (Team, Products, and Extensions) and sales channel services (Analytics, Customers, Abandoned Checkouts, Marketing, and Communication).
  • Day 15 (Full Block): If the subscription remains unpaid, your Fynd Commerce panel is blocked with immediate effect (e.g., on June 14 in the example above).

Extension Billing

If you install an extension mid-cycle, its charges are applied in the next billing cycle. For example, a monthly recurring extension installed on May 20 will be billed on May 31 and remain accessible through June 19.


Navigate to Company → Settings → Billing in your Commerce Panel to access the Billing dashboard.

E-Mandate

What is an E-Mandate?

In accordance with Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines, an e-mandate is an electronic authorisation that allows Fynd Commerce to automatically debit your saved card for recurring subscription payments — without requiring manual approval for each transaction.

When you accept the e-mandate, you authorise Fynd to debit any subscription amount that falls below the e-mandate limit. The e-mandate amount itself is never charged; only the actual subscription payable amount is debited from your saved card.

How the E-Mandate Amount is Calculated

The e-mandate amount is set at 2.5× the subscription payable amount, rounded up to the nearest ₹100.

Example: If your subscription payable amount is ₹2,499:

E-Mandate Amount = 2.5 × ₹2,499 = ₹6,247.50 → rounded to ₹6,300

E-Mandate Verification Scenarios

1. Subscription and Trial Plan Changes

  • Trial to paid plan: Before activating a paid subscription, the system verifies that the e-mandate on your saved card covers the payable amount (i.e., 2.5× the subscription cost is within the cap).
  • Plan upgrade: When upgrading between standard plans, the system recalculates the e-mandate as 1.5× the new subscription amount and verifies your card accordingly.
  • Discounted upgrade: If a flat or percentage discount applies, the e-mandate is recalculated based on the discounted amount.

2. Extensions and Multi-Plan Subscriptions

  • Adding an extension (trial/free plan): The system checks whether the e-mandate on your saved card is sufficient to cover the extension cost.
  • Multiple plans and extensions: When subscribing to multiple ordering channel plans and extensions simultaneously, the total payable is multiplied by 1.5 to determine the required e-mandate, and your card is verified accordingly.

3. E-Mandate Cap

  • If the calculated e-mandate exceeds ₹15,000, it is automatically capped at ₹15,000 to prevent excessive pre-authorisation.
  • This cap applies across all subscription types, including multiple extensions, ordering channels, and non-eCommerce channels.

4. Card and Payment Management

  • Adding a new card: The e-mandate does not update until the new card is set as the default. Once set, the system verifies and applies the e-mandate to that card.
  • Payment failure: If a payment fails, the system triggers an e-mandate check. If the saved card cannot cover the payable amount, you will need to update or replace the card.

5. Custom Plans and Downgrades

  • Custom plan upgrade: The system calculates and verifies a new e-mandate based on the upgraded plan amount.
  • Plan downgrade: The system checks whether the lower plan amount is within the previously approved e-mandate. If not, a reduced e-mandate value is applied.
  • New card on trial plan: Adding a card while on a trial plan immediately triggers an e-mandate calculation to prevent future payment disruptions.

How to Accept the E-Mandate

  1. Click Set Up.
  2. Tick the checkbox to accept the e-mandate.
  3. Click Save Card.

Credit Notes

A Credit Note (CN) is issued when you have prepaid for a plan but switch to a different plan before the billing cycle ends. The unused portion of your payment is credited back and can be applied toward your new plan's cost.

Example

Suppose you are on a 30-day billing cycle and switch plans on Day 11:

PlanBilling CyclePlan Cost (incl. GST)Days UsedAmount (₹)
Standard Plan (₹599)30 days₹706.8210235.60
Professional Plan (₹1,499)30 days₹1,768.82201,179.21
Total Payable1,414.81
Credit Note (CN)706.82
Net Amount Due (Total − CN)707.99

In this example, since ₹706.82 was already paid for the Standard Plan, a Credit Note of ₹706.82 is applied, reducing your net payment to ₹707.99.

Credit Notes serve as a record of prepaid amounts that can be applied to future transactions, ensuring accurate accounting and financial management.

Card Tokenization

Card tokenization is a security measure that replaces your card details with a unique digital token. This token is stored and used for transactions instead of your actual card information, keeping your data safe.

How it works: When you save a card, your card details are securely shared with the card network provider. In return, the provider issues a token linked to your card. For all future transactions, only this token is used — you do not need to re-enter your card details each time.

Tokenization is free of charge. As mandated by the RBI, card data is tokenized and protected by card networks, ensuring your card details are never exposed. You can choose to consent to tokenization for future transactions or opt out at any time.
