Pricing
Pay to issue.
Verify for free.
The same product is repeatedly submitted, evaluated, and documented across retailers and markets. Formara issues one verifiable receipt that can be reused everywhere.
Formara issuance model
Annual issuance entitlement
Pricing model
Issuance capacity
Priced at issuance
When compliance state is created or changed.
Verification is never priced. Retailers, regulators, and downstream verifiers do not pay to consume receipts.
System model
Issuance → verification lifecycle
Pricing applies at issuance.
Evaluation
Product evaluated
Issuance
Receipt issued
Verification
Verified everywhere
Core invariant
1 SKU + rulepack scope = 1 receipt = 1 attest event
compliance decision capacity
Annual entitlement
Operators reserve annual capacity on the Formara rail through issuance entitlements.
| Tier | Annual price | Included attest events | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design Partner | $28,000 | 500 | $3.00 |
| Issuer Core | $60,000 | 2,500 | $2.00 |
| Issuer Growth | $150,000 | 10,000 | $1.25 |
| Issuer Enterprise | $500,000 | 40,000 | $0.75 |
You are purchasing issuance capacity, not software access.
Billable unit
One receipt is the billable compliance unit
Issuance or re-issuance of a compliance receipt for a SKU under a rulepack version and market scope. Rulepacks expand evaluation scope. They do not multiply receipts.
Each receipt replaces multiple redundant compliance submissions across retailers and markets.
Triggered when
• New product introduced
• Formulation changes
• Regulation updates
• Market expansion
Baseline coverage
Baseline rulepacks
- EU-1223-CORE
- US-COS-MOCRA-BASELINE
- CA-COS-HOTLIST-BASELINE
- GB-COS-INGREDIENT-BASELINE
- IFRA 51
Scope expansion
Additional rulepacks
$12,000/ year
Expands regulatory coverage across additional jurisdictions.
Examples
- • EU CLP label
- • UK CLP
- • US FHSA label
- • GHS hazard
- • ASEAN household chemicals
Scope expansion does not increase issuance volume. Pricing remains tied to receipts, not rules.
Cost scaling
Pricing follows compliance change
You incur cost when
• New product introduced
• Formulation changes
• Regulation updates
• Market expansion
Not when
• Users access the system
• Data is stored
• Receipts are verified
• Retailers consume outputs
Pricing follows compliance state change over time, not downstream consumption.
Estimate issuance volume
Find your likely tier
Estimated annual attest events: 791–1,070
Likely tier: Issuer Core
$60,000 annual entitlement
Replaces repeated submissions and re-attestations across retailers and markets.
This estimator provides tier guidance only. Final scope depends on workflow shape, rulepack coverage, and operational rollout.
Optional extensions
Operational capabilities that extend workflow and integration, without affecting receipt validity or verification.
Pricing philosophy
Buy issuance capacity.
Verification remains free.
Formara prices the creation of verifiable compliance state. You do not pay for access, verification, workflow tooling, or downstream participation.
Annual prepaid contracts. Overage billed quarterly or annually. Verification always free. Retailers and regulators never pay.
