 weight: 177
 ---
 Your account balance is a prepaid credit pool that can be used to pay for any charges on your account — including Core provisioning fees, domain registrations, domain renewals, and add-ons. Think of it like a store credit tied to your account.
 ## How It Works
 Whenever a charge is incurred, your available balance is applied first. Only the portion of the charge that exceeds your balance is billed to your card. For example, if you have a $20 balance and incur a $30 charge, $20 comes from your balance and $10 is charged to your card.
 ## Included Credit at Checkout
 When you complete checkout, your plan includes an account credit that is loaded onto your balance:
 - **Enterprise:** $100.00 credit included
 - **Consultant:** $40.00 credit included
 - **Pay-As-You-Go:** No included credit
 This credit is part of your first-month charge — it's prepaid funds loaded to your balance to offset ongoing charges throughout the month.
 ## Adding Funds
 Only **Owners** and **Admins** can add funds. To top up your balance:
 1. Go to **Billing** in the dashboard.
 2. Click **Add Funds**.
 3. Enter the amount you want to add. The minimum top-up amount is **$10.00**.
 4. Confirm. The amount is charged to your card on file and added to your balance immediately.
 ## Viewing Your Balance
 Your current balance is shown on the Billing page. You can also review all balance transactions — including credits, debits, and top-ups — in the transaction history on the same page.
 > **Note:** Account balances are non-transferable and are not refunded automatically upon cancellation. Contact support if you have questions about your balance.

 Add-ons extend the functionality of your Cores or your account subscription. They're optional and can be added or removed at any time.
 ## Core Add-ons
 Core add-ons are attached per Core and billed monthly based on how many Cores have the add-on active. Pricing varies by tier.
 | Add-on | Description | Enterprise / Core | Consultant / Core | Pay-As-You-Go / Core |
 |---|---|---|---|---|
 | **Monitoring** | Core health monitoring and alerting | $8.00 | $10.00 | $15.00 |
 | **Backup** | Automated Core backup | $10.00 | $15.00 | $15.00 |
 | **Customer Service** | End-user customer service support for Core users | $15.00 | $20.00 | $22.00 |
 | **Technical Support** | Technical support access | Included | Included | Included |
 ## Subscription Add-ons
 Subscription add-ons are billed at a flat rate per month across your entire account, regardless of Core count.
 | Add-on | Description | Price / Month | Availability |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | **Go-to-Market Support** | Flat-fee marketing and go-to-market support from the Federated team | $2,500.00 | Enterprise only |
 ## Managing Add-ons
 Core add-ons can be added or removed from individual Cores on the Cores page. Subscription add-ons are managed from the Billing page. Only **Owners** and **Admins** can change add-ons.
 When you add an add-on mid-cycle, the charge for the remaining days in the billing period is prorated and billed immediately. When you remove an add-on, it's canceled at the end of the current billing cycle.

 weight: 179

 You can change your plan tier at any time, but plan changes always take effect at the **start of your next billing cycle** — not immediately. Only **Owners** and **Admins** can change the plan.
 ## How to Change Your Plan
 1. Navigate to **Billing** in the dashboard.
 2. Click **Change Plan**.
 3. Select your desired tier.
 4. Confirm. A *pending tier change* is recorded. Your current tier remains active until your next billing date.
 ## What to Expect
 After you schedule a plan change:
 - Your current tier stays active — you keep your current pricing and features until the end of your billing period.
 - On your next billing date, the new tier takes effect. Your new membership fee and per-Core pricing apply from that date forward.
 - If the new tier doesn't support certain add-ons you currently have, those add-ons may be adjusted at the time the tier change applies.
 ## Canceling a Pending Plan Change
 If you change your mind, you can cancel a pending plan change from the Billing page before your renewal date. Once the billing cycle rolls over and the new tier is applied, the change cannot be undone.
 > **Note:** You cannot schedule a plan change while your subscription is already set to cancel at the end of the period. Remove the cancellation first if you want to change your plan.

 title: "Coupons"

 weight: 181
 ---
 Coupon codes can be applied at checkout to reduce the initial charge when signing up for a Federated Enterprise account. If you have a coupon code, you can enter it during the checkout process before confirming your payment.
 ## Types of Discounts
 Coupons can be configured in several ways:
 - **Percentage discount** — Reduces the charge by a percentage (e.g., 20% off).
 - **Fixed discount** — Reduces the charge by a set dollar amount.
 - **Free** — Covers the full charge.
 ## What a Coupon Applies To
 By default, coupons apply to your plan fee only. Some coupons are configured to also cover domain registration costs — these will be noted when you validate a code.
 ## Coupon Limits
 Some coupons have a maximum number of uses. If a coupon is fully redeemed, it will no longer be accepted. Coupons may also have expiration dates.
 > **Note:** Coupons are currently only applicable at checkout and cannot be applied retroactively to an existing account's billing. Contact support if you have questions about a coupon code.

 Every charge to your account generates an invoice. Invoices are emailed to your account's contact email address automatically when a payment is processed.
 ## Finding Your Invoices
 All invoices and payment history are available in the **Billing** section of your dashboard, under the **Invoices** tab. Each invoice shows:
 - Invoice date and billing period
 - Line items (membership fee, Core fees, add-ons, domains, etc.)
 - Total charged
 - Payment status (paid, open, or void)
 ## Downloading a PDF Invoice
 Each invoice can be downloaded as a PDF. Click the invoice in the list and use the **Download PDF** option. The PDF includes a full line-item breakdown and is suitable for accounting purposes.
 ## Invoice Types
 The platform generates several types of invoices, which you may see in your history:
 - **Subscription** — Monthly billing cycle charge
 - **Setup** — Initial checkout charge
 - **Core** — Mid-cycle prorated Core or add-on charge
 - **Domain Purchase** — New domain registration
 - **Domain Renewal** — Annual domain renewal
 - **Add-on** — Standalone add-on purchase

 Your subscription renews monthly on the same date each month — specifically, one month from when you completed checkout. For example, if you signed up on the 14th of March, your renewal date is the 14th of each subsequent month.
 ## What's Billed Each Cycle
 On your renewal date, the platform calculates and charges:
 - **Membership fee** — your plan's flat monthly fee
 - **Core fees** — your per-Core rate × the number of active Cores on your account
 - **Core add-on fees** — per-Core monthly charges for any add-ons active on your Cores
 - **Subscription add-on fees** — flat monthly fees for any account-level add-ons
 ## How Billing Works
 Your account balance is always applied first. Any remaining amount after balance is charged to your payment method on file. You'll receive an invoice by email for each billing cycle.
 ## Failed Payments
 If a payment fails, the platform will retry automatically. The retry schedule is:
 - **First retry:** 3 days after the failed attempt
 - **Second retry:** 7 days after the failed attempt
 - **Third retry:** 14 days after the failed attempt
 You'll receive email notifications when a payment fails and again as each retry approaches. If all retries are exhausted without a successful payment, your account may be suspended. Update your payment method as soon as possible to avoid service interruption.
 ## Prorating
 Items added mid-cycle — such as new Cores or Core add-ons — are prorated. You're charged only for the number of days remaining in the current billing period when the item was added.

 title: "Understanding Your Plan"
 tagline: "A breakdown of all plan tiers and what each one includes."
 weight: 176
 ---
 Federated Enterprise offers three plan tiers. Each tier has a different membership fee, per-Core pricing, and included account credit. The right tier depends on your scale and how heavily you'll use the platform.
 ## Plan Tiers
 | Feature | Enterprise | Consultant | Pay-As-You-Go |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | Monthly membership fee | $400.00 | $200.00 | $0.00 |
 | Per-Core / month | $10.00 | $15.00 | $55.00 |
 | Included account credit | $100.00 | $40.00 | $0.00 |
 | SSH key provisioning | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Provisioner API access | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Technical support | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Core limit | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
 ## Which Tier Is Right for You?
 **Enterprise** is best for organizations running many Cores regularly. The higher membership fee is offset by significantly lower per-Core pricing ($10 vs $55), so it pays off quickly at scale.
 **Consultant** is a middle ground — ideal for organizations running a moderate number of Cores, or those who want a lower commitment than the full Enterprise tier.
 **Pay-As-You-Go** has no monthly commitment. You pay only for what you use. The per-Core rate is the highest of the three tiers, but if your Core usage is low or sporadic, this can be the most cost-effective option.
 ## Add-on Pricing by Tier
 Core add-on pricing (Monitoring, Backup, Customer Service) also varies by tier. Enterprise accounts get the lowest add-on rates. See [Add-ons](/platform/coreplatform/billing/add-ons/) for the full pricing breakdown.

 ## How to Update Your Card
 1. Go to **Billing** in the dashboard.
 2. Click **Update Payment Method**.
 3. Enter your new card details in the secure card form.
 4. Save. The new card becomes your default payment method immediately.
 > **Important:** Keep your payment method up to date to avoid missed payments and potential account suspension. If a billing charge fails due to an expired card, the platform will retry, but each failed attempt delays service renewal.

 When a Core is provisioned, it is assigned a domain based on the subdomain you specified in `core-create` and one of the three domains attached to your account — for example, `mycore.yourdomain.com`.
 If you need to change the domain assigned to a Core after provisioning, you can do so using the Provisioner API.
 ## Before You Begin
 Glue records for the new domain must be configured correctly before running this command. The domain change will not work if DNS is not set up in advance.
 ## Changing the Domain
 ```bash

 title: "Deleting a Core"
 tagline: "How to permanently remove a Core from your account."
 weight: 170
 ---
 Deleting a Core permanently removes it from your account. Only **Owners** and **Admins** can delete Cores.
 There are two ways to delete a Core.
 > **Warning:** Deleting a Core is **permanent and irreversible**. The Core will be removed from your account and CoreServer will stop functioning on that VM. Your underlying VM and its data remain yours, but you will need to re-provision if you want to restore it.
 ## Option 1: Dashboard
 1. Go to **Cores** in the dashboard.
 2. Locate the Core by its IP address.
 3. Click **Delete** on that Core.
 4. Confirm the deletion. The Core is immediately removed from your account.
 ## Option 2: API
 You can also delete a Core programmatically using the Provisioner API.
 ```bash
 curl -k -X POST https://178.156.242.210:4445/core-delete \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "account_id": "your-account-id",
  "ip": "<ip address of the Core>"
 }'
 ```
 | Field | Required | Description |
 |-------|----------|-------------|
 | `account_id` | Yes | Your Federated Enterprise account ID. |
 | `ip` | Yes | The IP address of the Core to delete. |
 A successful request returns an empty JSON object (`{}`).
 ## Billing After Deletion
 Deleted Cores are removed from your billing at the end of the current billing cycle. You will not be charged for a deleted Core in the following month. There is no prorated refund for the portion of the current month that remains after deletion — the Core runs until the end of the period.
 ## Add-ons on Deleted Cores
 Any add-ons attached to a deleted Core are automatically canceled when the Core is deleted. You will not be billed for those add-ons in subsequent billing cycles.

 title: "Provisioning a Core"
 tagline: "How to download CoreServer, install it on your VM, and connect it to the platform."
 weight: 168
 ---
 On Federated Enterprise, a **Core** is a bundle of open source business software running on **CoreServer** — our custom operating system — installed on a virtual machine you provide. You bring the compute; we supply the OS and software, and connect it to the platform.
 ## Before You Begin
 - You need an active Enterprise account.
 - You need a virtual machine provisioned at your cloud provider. CoreServer supports x86 64-bit VMs.
 - You need SSH access to your VM during setup.
 ## Step 1: Download the CoreServer Image
 Download the image format that matches your cloud provider's import requirements:
 | Format                     | Download                                                                                                                                             | Use With                                                        |

 Import the image into your cloud provider and create a VM from it. Refer to your provider's documentation for the import process.
 ## Step 2: Add Your SSH Public Key
 Your account's SSH public key authorizes the Provisioner to connect to and configure your CoreServer VM.
 1. In the dashboard, navigate to **Cores**.
 2. Copy your account's **SSH public key**.
 3. Add the key to the `authorized_keys` file on your VM (typically `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` for the root user).
 ## Step 3: Run core-create
 Once the SSH key is in place, run the following command to provision your Core. Your `account_id` is pre-filled in the template provided to you at signup.
 ```bash
 curl -k -X POST https://178.156.242.210:4445/core-create \

 ## What Happens Next
 The Provisioner configures your CoreServer VM and notifies the platform when complete. The Core will automatically appear in the **Cores** section of your dashboard as **Active** — no manual refresh needed.
 If you specified a recipient email, they'll receive a welcome email confirming the Core is live.
 ## Billing for New Cores
 Cores are charged on a monthly basis as part of your regular billing cycle. When you provision a Core mid-cycle, the cost for the remaining days in the current period is **prorated** — you're only charged for the time the Core was active, not the full month.
 Any Core add-ons selected at provisioning are also prorated in the same way.
 > **Note:** Your account balance is used first when any charge is incurred. Only the amount exceeding your balance is charged to your card. See [Account Balance](/platform/coreplatform/billing/account-balance/) for details.

 title: "What Are Cores"
 tagline: "An introduction to Cores"
 weight: 167

 A **Core** is a bundle of open source business software — pre-configured to work together — running on **CoreServer**, Federated's custom operating system. CoreServer is installed on a virtual machine you own and provision at your cloud provider. Federated manages the software layer; you own the underlying infrastructure.
 Each Core is registered to your account with its VM's IP address. Cores are billed on a per-unit, per-month basis on top of your membership fee. The exact per-Core price depends on your plan tier.
 ## Core States
 A Core moves through several states during its lifecycle:
 - **Available** — The Core has been allocated to your account but provisioning hasn't started yet.
 - **Provisioning** — The Provisioner is actively setting up the Core. This typically takes a few minutes.
 - **Active** — The Core is live and operational, accessible at its assigned IP address.
 - **Failed** — Provisioning encountered an error. Contact support if a Core is stuck in this state.
 - **Decommissioned** — The Core has been removed from your account. Your underlying VM remains yours, but CoreServer will no longer function on it.
 ## Core Add-ons
 Each Core can have optional add-ons attached to it, such as Monitoring, Backup, Customer Service, and Technical Support. Add-ons are billed per Core, per month. See [Add-ons](/platform/coreplatform/billing/add-ons/) for pricing and details.
 ## Core Limits
 Your plan tier may define a maximum number of Cores. The Enterprise and Consultant tiers have no hard Core limit by default. Check your plan details or contact support if you need to confirm your Core limit.

 ## Checking Domain Availability
 Before purchasing, you can search for a domain name to check whether it's available and see the registration and renewal pricing. Enter the full domain name including the TLD (e.g., `mycompany.com`).
 ## Purchasing a Domain
 1. Go to **Domains** in the dashboard and click **Add Domain**.

 3. Confirm the purchase. The displayed price is for a one-year registration.
 4. Payment is processed immediately. Your account balance is applied first; any remaining amount is charged to your card on file.
 5. The domain is registered with our registrar partner. Registration can take a few minutes to complete. You'll receive an invoice by email.

 Custom domains are registered for one year at a time. Federated Enterprise automatically handles renewal so your domains stay active without manual intervention.
 ## Auto-Renewal
 By default, all custom domains are set to **auto-renew**. Before a domain expires, the platform will charge the renewal fee to your account (balance first, then card) and renew the registration for another year.
 You can toggle auto-renewal on or off for individual domains from the Domains page. Only **Owners** and **Admins** can change this setting.
 > **Warning:** If you disable auto-renewal, you are responsible for renewing the domain before it expires. An expired domain may become available for registration by others and can disrupt your Cores and services.
 ## Renewal Failures
 If a renewal charge fails (e.g., due to an expired card or insufficient balance), you'll receive a notification email. The platform will attempt the renewal again, but it's important to ensure your payment method is up to date to avoid service interruption.
 ## Federated Domains
 Federated-managed domains (`federatedcomputer.cloud`, `federatedcomputer.net`, `fedcom.net`) are maintained by Federated Computer and never expire or require renewal from your side.

 Every Federated Enterprise account requires at least three domains. These domains are used by your Cores and the platform to route traffic, send email, and serve your environment. You can choose between two types of domains.
 ## Federated Domains
 Federated Computer provides a set of shared domains that you can use at no extra cost:
 - `federatedcomputer.cloud`
 - `federatedcomputer.net`
 - `fedcom.net`
 These domains are owned and managed by Federated Computer. Using them requires no registration fees and no renewal management on your end — they're always active for as long as your account is active. This is the fastest way to get started and is fully functional for most use cases.
 ## Custom Domains
 If you want to run your environment under your own brand, you can register custom domains through the Federated Enterprise platform. Custom domains are purchased through our domain registrar partner and are registered to your account.
 Custom domains carry a registration fee (paid at checkout or when added post-signup) and an annual renewal fee. Domain pricing varies by TLD. You can check availability and current pricing in the checkout flow or on the Domains page in your dashboard.

 Federated Enterprise requires a minimum of **three domains** when you sign up, and this is a technical requirement of the platform — not an arbitrary constraint.
 Each domain on your account needs its own SSL certificate to serve traffic securely. The platform provisions these certificates automatically, and three domains ensures there is enough capacity to cover all the certificates your environment needs to function correctly.

 You can cancel your Federated Enterprise subscription at any time from the Billing page. Cancellation is immediate in the sense that it's recorded right away, but your access continues until the end of your current billing period.
 ## What Happens When You Cancel
 - Your subscription is marked as canceling. You will not be billed again.
 - You retain full access to your account, Cores, and domains until the end of your current billing period.
 - You'll receive a confirmation email with the date your access ends.
 - On the cancellation date, your account is marked inactive and access to the platform is revoked. Your VMs and cloud infrastructure remain yours — however, CoreServer requires an active account to function, so the software running on your Cores will stop working.
 > **Important:** Cancellation is **not reversible through self-service**. If you cancel and later want to use Federated Enterprise again, please [contact us](https://freescout.federated.computer/help/3593186542).
 ## Undoing a Cancellation
 If you change your mind before your access period ends, you can reverse the cancellation from the Billing page by clicking **Keep My Subscription**. Once your access period has expired, the option is no longer available.
 ## Account Balance on Cancellation
 Any remaining account balance is not automatically refunded when you cancel. Contact support if you have questions about your balance at the time of cancellation.

 After verifying your email, you'll land on the checkout page. This is where you choose your plan, set up domains, enter payment details, and activate your account. The process takes just a few minutes.
 ## 1. Choose a Plan Tier
 Select the plan tier that fits your organization. See the [Tier Comparison](/platform/coreplatform/reference/tier-comparison/) for a full breakdown of pricing and features. Your tier determines your monthly membership fee, per-Core pricing, and which add-ons are available.
 ## 2. Set Up Your Domains
 You'll need a minimum of three domains. You have two options:
 - **Use Federated Domains** — Get set up instantly with `federatedcomputer.cloud`, `federatedcomputer.net`, and `fedcom.net` at no additional cost. These are managed by Federated Computer and require no registration fees.
 - **Register Custom Domains** — Choose your own domain names. You can check availability and see pricing directly in the checkout flow. Custom domains are registered through Federated's domain partner and billed as part of your setup charge.
 See [Federated Domains vs Custom Domains](/platform/coreplatform/domains/federated-vs-custom-domains/) for more detail.
 ## 3. Apply a Coupon (Optional)
 If you have a coupon code, enter it at checkout to receive a discount on your initial charge. Coupons may reduce the plan fee, the domain cost, or both depending on the coupon configuration.
 ## 4. Enter Payment Details
 Provide a credit or debit card. Your card will be charged immediately for the setup amount, which includes:
 - Your first month's membership fee for the plan you selected
 - An account credit equal to your plan's included credit (applied to future Core and billing charges)
 - Domain registration fees for any custom domains (Federated domains are free)
 ## 5. Account Activation
 Once payment is processed successfully, your account is activated. You'll receive an invoice by email confirming the charges. Your account is now live and you can begin provisioning Cores.

 A **Core** is a bundle of open source apps (such as Nextcloud, Gitea, and Vaultwarden) built to work together out of the box, running on **CoreServer** on your own VM. Cores are tied to your account and backed by a set of **domains** that route traffic to your environment. Each Core can also be equipped with optional add-on services like monitoring and backups.
 ## What You Get
 - CoreServer and your chosen Core software bundle installed on your own VMs, managed through the Federated platform
 - At least three domains — either free Federated-managed domains, or custom domains you purchase and register through the platform
 - An SSH key pair automatically generated at checkout, used by the Provisioner to configure your Cores
 - A billing structure based on your chosen plan tier, with transparent per-Core pricing
 - A team workspace where you can invite colleagues at different permission levels
 ## How the Platform Is Organized
 Your account is the top-level container for everything: your Cores, domains, users, and billing. One person signs up as the **Owner** and completes checkout; from there, additional team members can be invited. All Cores and domains belong to the account, not individual users.

 Creating a Federated Enterprise account is a two-step process: first you create your account and verify your email, then you complete checkout to choose a plan and set up payment.
 ## Step 1 — Create Your Account
 Navigate to **[https://coreplatform.federated.computer/signup](https://coreplatform.federated.computer/signup)** You'll be asked to fill in:
 - **Company Name** — the name that will appear on your account and invoices
 - **Your Name** (first and last)
 - **Email Address** — this becomes your login and the account's primary contact email
 - **Phone Number** (optional)
 - **Password** — minimum 8 characters
 - **Billing Address** — street, city, state/region, country, and postal code
 > **Important:** The email address you provide must be unique across all Federated Enterprise accounts. If you see an error that an account already exists with that email, try signing in or use a different email address.
 After submitting the form, you'll receive an activation email at the address you provided. The activation link expires in **24 hours**. Click the link to verify your email and advance your account to the checkout step.
 ## Step 2 — Complete Checkout
 Once your email is verified, you'll be taken to the checkout flow. See [Completing Checkout](/platform/coreplatform/getting-started/completing-checkout/) for details on what happens next.
 ## Resending Your Activation Email
 If your activation email doesn't arrive within a few minutes, check your spam folder. If you need a new link sent, return to the login page and use the **Resend activation email** option.

 weight: 193

 Note: Customers using Google Cloud will need to provision using a **static IP**, the appropriate disk size, and make some adjustments to the firewall rules.
 Here are some sample "gcloud" command line instructions.
 - We set up the VM address...
 ```
 gcloud compute addresses create coreserver-static-1 --region=us-central1
 ```
 - We set up the VM instance using the CoreServer image, the disk size and using the address defined in the prior step...
 ```
 gcloud compute instances create coreservernew1 \
      --zone=us-central1-a \
      --machine-type=e2-medium \
      --image=coreserver-gcp-x86-26-06-24 \
      --image-project=fed-project-name \
      --boot-disk-size=80G \
      --address=coreserver-static-1 \
      --metadata "ssh-keys=root:ssh-ed25519 YOUR_KEY_HERE root@core-provisioner"
 ```
 You will also need to set the firewall rules as allowed in GCP.
 - We allow for DNS traffic on port 53.
 ```
 gcloud compute firewall-rules create allow-dns \
      --allow tcp:53,udp:53 \
      --network default \
      --description "Allow DNS traffic on port 53"
 ```
 - Allow for HTTP and HTTPS traffic.
 ```
 gcloud compute firewall-rules create allow-http-https \
      --allow tcp:80,tcp:443 \  
      --network default \
      --description "Allow HTTP and HTTPS traffic"
 ```
 - Finally, we allow ports for the email service. You need the email service so that installed apps can send messages to users.
 ```
 gcloud compute firewall-rules create allow-mail \
      --allow tcp:25,tcp:143,tcp:587,tcp:993,tcp:465,tcp:110,tcp:995 \

 title: "Tier Comparison"

 weight: 192
 ---
 Use this reference to compare all three Federated Enterprise tiers side by side — including plan fees, Core pricing, and all add-on rates.
 ## Plan Pricing
 | | Enterprise | Consultant | Pay-As-You-Go |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | Monthly membership fee | $400.00 / mo | $200.00 / mo | $0.00 / mo |
 | Per-Core / month | $10.00 | $15.00 | $55.00 |
 | Account credit at signup | $100.00 | $40.00 | $0.00 |
 | Core limit | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
 ## Core Add-on Pricing (per Core, per month)
 | Add-on | Enterprise | Consultant | Pay-As-You-Go |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | Monitoring | $8.00 | $10.00 | $15.00 |
 | Backup | $10.00 | $15.00 | $15.00 |
 | Customer Service | $15.00 | $20.00 | $22.00 |
 | Technical Support | Included | Included | Included |
 ## Subscription Add-on Pricing (flat rate per month)
 | Add-on | Enterprise | Consultant | Pay-As-You-Go |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | Go-to-Market Support | $2,500.00 | — | — |
 ## Platform Features
 | Feature | Enterprise | Consultant | Pay-As-You-Go |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | SSH key provisioning | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Provisioner API access | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Technical support | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Federated Domains option | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Custom domain registration | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | Go-to-Market Support add-on | Yes | — | — |
 ## Cost Examples
 To illustrate the difference between tiers, here are example monthly costs for an account running 10 active Cores with no add-ons:
 - **Enterprise:** $400 membership + (10 × $10) = **$500/mo**
 - **Consultant:** $200 membership + (10 × $15) = **$350/mo**
 - **Pay-As-You-Go:** $0 membership + (10 × $55) = **$550/mo**
 The most cost-effective tier depends on how many Cores you run:
 - **1–4 Cores:** Pay-As-You-Go is cheapest — no membership fee offsets the higher per-Core rate at low volume.
 - **5–39 Cores:** Consultant is cheapest — the $200 membership fee is recovered through lower per-Core pricing compared to Pay-As-You-Go.
 - **40+ Cores:** Enterprise is cheapest — the crossover point where the $10/Core rate makes the $400 membership fee worthwhile.
 These breakpoints assume no add-ons. Add-on pricing also varies by tier, so accounts with heavy add-on usage may find the breakeven shifts in favor of a higher tier sooner.

 | View Cores & Domains | Yes | Yes | Yes |
 | View billing | Yes | Yes | Yes |

 ## Role Descriptions
 **Owner** — There is exactly one Owner per account. The Owner is the user who signed up and completed checkout. Ownership can be transferred by changing another user's role to Owner from the Team page — this immediately makes them the Owner and changes the previous Owner to an Admin.
 **Admin** — Admins have the same permissions as the Owner for day-to-day operations: managing Cores, domains, billing, and users. Admins cannot change the Owner's role and cannot perform actions that affect the Owner user directly.
 **Member** — Members have read-only access. They can view Cores, domains, and billing information, but cannot make changes to any resources or account settings. This role is suitable for team members who need visibility without the ability to modify infrastructure.

 ## Transform Your Fiber Network Into a High-Margin Software Platform
 **Deliver Business SaaS and DevOps Solutions to Your Customers**
 ---
 ## The Opportunity in 2026
 ### The Challenge
 The fiber business is increasingly competitive. Major players are expanding into more markets every day. A basic fiber connection—whether to homes or businesses—no longer differentiates you from the competition. Revenue teams are asking: **What's our next move?**
 ### What Fiber Customers Want Bundled With Their Broadband
 According to Ernest & Young's Digital Home Survey, customers are demanding more than just connectivity:
 - **61%** - TV Services
 - **56%** - Mobile
 - **55%** - Privacy or Security Features
 - **43%** - Cloud Storage
 - **40%** - Smart Home
 - **40%** - Utility Services
 - **38%** - Home Working
 - **38%** - Health and Well-being
 - **34%** - Gaming or E-sports
 - **31%** - Home Education
 *Source: https://www.ey.com/en_us/insights/telecommunications/how-us-ftth-providers-can-navigate-an-evolving-market*
 ### The Solution
 Bundle software with your fiber service and unlock **100-200% revenue increases** on existing ARPU with minimal cost. Each dollar invested returns more than $10 in revenue.
 But success requires the right partner—one with the technology, expertise, and support infrastructure to deliver world-class software to your customers.

 ## The Economics of Software
 ### Transform Your Revenue Per Customer
 Consider a typical customer, "Sally," with a **$70/month** 1G fiber line. You understand those economics—infrastructure costs, maintenance, regulatory expenses, support. The margins are what they are.
 **But with software, you can transform that line into a high-margin revenue stream.**
 #### Example: Sally's Business Bundle
 ```
 Fiber Line:        $70/month
 Business Bundle:  +$150/month
 ────────────────────────────
 Total Revenue:    $220/month
 214% increase with minimal marginal cost
 ```
 The business bundle includes:
 - Office productivity suite
 - Video conferencing
 - VoIP communications
 - CRM system
 - Customer support tools
 - Email hosting
 - VPN access
 - Password management
 **The marginal costs for you are small, but the overall profitability of "Sally" for your business has jumped considerably.**

 ## The Opportunity in Cloud Computing
 ### The Challenge
 The hosting business is intensely competitive. Major cloud providers are expanding into every market. **Offering just VMs isn't enough differentiation anymore.** What is a revenue-focused team supposed to do?
 ### The Cloud Software Revolution
 Cloud software (SaaS and PaaS) provides customers with more options to consume cloud services. Instead of relying on customers to use your infrastructure alone, you can now offer **complete solutions**—pre-built, kept up-to-date, and secure—expanding adoption of your cloud.
 Cloud software lets you shift the conversation from **lowest-common-denominator** (features and price) to **high-value, high-margin offerings** targeted to the outcomes your customers want to achieve.

 **SaaS and PaaS are the fastest-growing segments—capture that growth!**
 ### The Revenue Opportunity
 When you bundle cloud software with hosting, you can add **100-200% revenue** to existing ARPU with minimal cost. Each dollar invested returns **more than $10 in revenue**.
 But you need the right partner to deliver cloud software to your customers.

 ## The Economics of Cloud Software
 ### Transform Customer Profitability
 Consider a customer, **"Robert,"** with a **$500/month** cloud spend. You understand those economics:
 - Server purchase and racking costs
 - Software updates and maintenance
 - Power and cooling expenses
 - Support costs

 - Video conferencing
 - VoIP communications
 - CRM system
 - Customer support tools
 - Email hosting
 - VPN access
 - Password management
 You charge: **$250/month** for cloud software
 ```
 ┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
 │  Customer: Robert                   │
 ├─────────────────────────────────────┤
 │  VM Infrastructure:     $500/month  │
 │  + Cloud Software:      $250/month  │
 │  ═══════════════════════════════════│
 │  Total Revenue:         $750/month  │
 │                                     │
 │  50% revenue increase               │
 │  Minimal marginal cost              │
 │  Significantly higher profit        │
 └─────────────────────────────────────┘

 Federated Core Platform includes a number of bundles (collections of open source SaaS software and services) specifically designed for specific enterprise customers and market types. Examples of these are [Commerce](/platform/software-catalog/federated-commerce/) and [Omnimedia](/platform/software-catalog/federated-omnimedia/).
 It is possible to address "pro" customers in a couple ways. The first would be to design, build, and deliver a total solution using the building blocks available in Federated Core Platform and its software catalog.
 However, there will be many opportunities to build out additional collections/bundles for customers requiring different sets of software and services delivered bespoke for their particular needs. These don't have to come from Federated Computer but can be designed and delivered by our partners and sold through all available channels including other operators, networks, and platforms. Open source allows us maximum flexibility to deliver great solutions to customers without re-inventing every wheel.

 The philosophy behind Federated Core Platform is simple to understand.
 ## Getting Rid of "Big Tech" is Easy
 Federated Core Platform is designed and built to make it as easy as possible for everyone to "de-Google", "de-Microsoft", or "de-Big-Tech" in general — winning back self-determination, owning your data, and gaining maximum flexibility over how technology works for you. We believe that breaking free from proprietary ecosystems should be straightforward, not a technical odyssey reserved for experts.
 ## Transformation
 Open source is transformative for individuals and businesses alike. It lets you use technology as a tool shaped around your own processes and needs, rather than forcing you to conform to the assumptions and agendas of Big Tech. With the right platform, open source doesn't just replace proprietary software — it unlocks entirely new ways of working, collaborating, and growing.
 ## Economically Attractive
 Adopting open source shouldn't require a leap of faith or a large upfront investment. Federated Core Platform delivers enterprise-grade tools that individuals and businesses can adopt confidently and cost-effectively, with no vendor lock-in, no surprise licensing fees, and a clear path to long-term savings.
 ## Make It Easy To Bring Open Source to the People
 The biggest barrier to open source adoption isn't technology — it's complexity. Federated Core Platform removes that barrier by providing curated, pre-configured solutions that just work, right out of the box. Whether you're an individual reclaiming your digital privacy or a business modernizing its infrastructure, we meet you where you are and make the transition as smooth as possible.
 ## Always Integrated
 Our solutions aren't a collection of disconnected installs — they're a cohesive platform. Everything works together seamlessly, from authentication and identity management, to file storage and sharing, to common services and underlying infrastructure. You get a unified experience without the integration headaches, so you can focus on what matters most: using technology on your own terms.

 Federated DevOps is software for DevOps teams delivered with the same high quality and consistency as Federated Computer's SaaS offerings.
 The benefits of using pre-built DevOps software with virtual machines are:
 1) Service and Attention: the virtual machine infrastructure from a hosting provider is more sticky with built in convenience such as user management, key and certificate management, overlay/VPN network for secure access. The conveniences are extended to a range of services offered by Federated Core Platform minimizing the start up costs for DevOps teams and ensuring secure use of the infrastructure and faster time to ship and launch for development projects.
 2) Product Automation: Federated Core Platform DevOps transforms the "dumb" virtual machine into a programmable product that can be tied to "state" and the automated needs of a DevOps team in real time. Now the virtual machine infrastructure from a hosting provider can be enhanced with a development pipeline tailored to the needs of the specific DevOps team and its applications.
 3) Software Model: Federated Core Platform DevOps is able to accomplish these benefits for hosting providers with a platform the add and integrate a vast array of DevOps software and services based on a common templating system delivering scale and reliability for customers.
 All software in Federated Core Platform DevOps is always tied to authentication, accessed through rules-based-access-control over a private network, connected to the other software used through pre-defined actions, kept up-to-date, and comes with the appropriate probes/monitors so the DevOps team is clear about performance and availability.

 With Federated Core Platform's optional "Monitor and Fix" solution you can rest easy that your customer's software is running and performing as planned. The "Monitor and Fix" platform does not take in to account your infrastructure, but can solve problems such as "out of disk" and software memory issues without your intervention.
 The Federated Core Platform "Monitor and Fix" solution is based on Grafana and Prometheus. Alerts can be directed to your end-points so that they will appear in your Slack channels, a dashboard you may have for your customers, or another solution.

 Open source software is used by 10s of millions of customers and users around the globe. It performs equal to or better than the leading proprietary software from Microsoft and Google. It is secure because the code is open for inspection by engineers around the world. You don't need to take the word of a big company.
 ### Examples of Success
 More and more companies in Europe and the global south are turning away from Microsoft365 and Google Workplace to solutions like Nextcloud to gain control over their data, keep it away from AI bots, and reclaim data sovereignty. They are adopting EspoCRM for better and more affordable CRM over Salesforce, throwing Mailchimp to the curb to use Listmonk, and pushing away Zoom for Jitsi.
 In an open source world everything is possible because the user has tools to build the solution that is exactly right for them.
