Conditional planning anchors · Honest availability

Free to test. Production prices remain conditional.

Design-partner applications and scoping are available now. The setup and monthly figures below are planning anchors; a live fee begins only after production gates and provider approvals pass.

Planned maintenance boundary

What a future monthly service would cover.

These boundaries are for conditional production planning. There is no shared Studio operations subscription available today.

Would normally be included after go-live

  • Iderwell-managed hosting for the live service stated in the agreement
  • Monitoring, backups and security updates within the agreed platform scope
  • Bug fixes where the delivered service does not perform as agreed
  • The operating portal, records and support allowance named in the plan

Quoted or charged separately

  • New modules, major redesigns, new integrations or changed business rules
  • Campaign operation, data entry or unlimited user support unless expressly included
  • Provider, network, shortcode, payment, SMS, tax or other outside charges
  • Guaranteed provider approval, shortcode allocation, network availability or settlement

What each line pays for

Software and provider charges are not the same thing.

A live service can involve Iderwell software and support, Hubtel or network charges, payment fees and SMS charges. The written scope separates them.

No hidden activation promise

A price is not a shortcode.

For the current reviewed Ghana path, Hubtel decides merchant approval, network access and shortcode allocation. Other providers are future. Iderwell does not bundle those decisions inside a software price.

Pricing questions

Know what is free and what is separate.

Planning anchors can become a final quote only after the shared production platform, security controls and provider approvals pass.

Will USSD Studio remain free?

The current public-alpha browser workspace is GHS 0. Alpha limits and future plans may change, but any paid offer will be described before a user is charged.

Are these final prices for every service?

They are conditional planning anchors, not offers for a live service today. A final implementation or monthly fee can be agreed only after the required production gates and provider approvals pass.

Are Hubtel charges included in Iderwell’s fee?

No. Hubtel, network, payment, SMS and other outside-provider charges remain separate from Iderwell’s software, hosting and support fee.

Does paying Iderwell guarantee a shortcode?

No. The figures do not create a live-service order. Production must first pass Iderwell's runtime, credential, operations and security gates, while the provider separately controls approval, shortcode allocation and network activation.

Can I ask Iderwell to build everything?

You can apply with only the business outcome. Iderwell can scope and prototype it as a founding design partner; this is not an order for shared live hosting or operations.

A business outcome is enough to begin scoping. The application does not place a live operations order.
