Your Cord subscription
Your subscription pays for Cord. Cord Payments transaction fees and the currency you use to sell to your clients are managed separately.
In short:
- Monthly price: Free 0; Starter MXN 240, USD 12 or EUR 12; Professional MXN 590, USD 30 or EUR 30; Scale MXN 1,390, USD 70 or EUR 70; Developer through sales.
- Tax-compliant invoices per month: 30 on Starter, 200 on Professional, 500 on Scale and 1,000 on Developer. Free does not include fiscal issuance.
- Commercial invoices: 10 per month on Free and unlimited from Starter.
- Overage: from Starter, AI, tax invoices and API above the allowance are billed; from Professional, additional users too. Free has hard limits.
- Automatic US sales tax: its own allowance (10, 25, 60 or 150 per month) and its own overage rate.

Currency and base price
| Country for new subscriptions | Currency |
|---|---|
| Mexico | MXN |
| Spain, Germany and France | EUR |
| Other supported markets | USD |
Existing contracts keep their currency. Changing country, language or the pricing selector does not convert an active subscription. Check the currency and total in the checkout summary; refresh before paying if they do not match.
| Plan | MXN monthly | USD monthly | EUR monthly | EUR annually |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Starter | 240 | 12 | 12 | 120 |
| Professional | 590 | 30 | 30 | 300 |
| Scale | 1,390 | 70 | 70 | 700 |
| Developer | 2,990 | 150 | Custom | Custom |
The annual price equals ten monthly payments and is billed yearly. Overage is calculated separately; it is not part of the two-month saving. Developer has no self-serve price: you contract it by talking to sales.
What each plan includes per month
| Plan | AI builds | Tax-compliant invoices | Commercial invoices | API requests | Included users | Quote sends | Invoices with automatic sales tax |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 3 | Not included | 10 | 100 | 1 | 5 | Not included |
| Starter | 20 | 30 | Unlimited | 1,000 | 1 | Unlimited | 10 |
| Professional | 50 | 200 | Unlimited | 5,000 | 5 | Unlimited | 25 |

| Developer | Unlimited | 1,000 | Unlimited | 50,000 | Unlimited | Unlimited | 150 |
- Tax-compliant invoices: CFDI 4.0 in Mexico, and in the countries whose tax-authority registration Cord turns on for your account. Each CFDI counts once, including payment complements, credit notes and the global invoice. See Invoicing by country.
- Commercial invoices: the invoice in the other markets and the pro forma in Mexico, in Spain and in countries whose e-invoicing is already active on your account. Creating drafts, downloading and resending do not consume another unit; test documents do not consume.
- Invoices with automatic sales tax: United States only, each issued invoice or paid quote recorded in a state where you collect. See Automatic sales tax.
- Quote sends: Free’s cap of 5 per month has no overage to bypass it; it renews on the first day of the month (UTC).
Overage
Free has hard limits. Starter supports AI, tax invoice and API overage but keeps a single user. Professional and Scale also support additional users. Only usage above the allowance is billed; included usage is never charged twice. These are fixed contract rates, not daily currency conversions.

Contact sales for Developer pricing in EUR. Overage on invoices with automatic sales tax is not billed yet: until it is turned on, the included amount works as a cap and, once reached, Cord asks you to upgrade or enter the rate manually until next month.

Manage your plan and payments
Settings › Plans & subscription shows your plan, usage and change options. Open the billing portal from there to manage your card and view charges and receipts.
- Upgrade: requires confirmation of the relevant payment before new paid capabilities become active.
- Downgrade or cancellation: follows the paid period; check the effective date displayed in the portal.
- Pending payment: does not guarantee paid access. Cord verifies an active subscription with a covered period. Without that evidence, Free permissions apply while payment recovery remains accessible.
Data is preserved after a downgrade; features and resources beyond the new contract stop operating. Removing Cord branding requires Starter or above; public surfaces restore the branding when the entitlement no longer applies. From Professional, links can be served from your own subdomain set up under Settings › Custom domain, once that option is enabled on your account (if you don’t see it, write to us).
Subscription documents
A charge receipt and a fiscal invoice are different documents. For an invoice for a payment in Mexico, complete your tax details and use the available option in the portal. Check the details before issuing. Availability and status are shown per charge; a receipt does not replace reviewing your accounting obligations in each country.
Commercial and fiscal documents
Each type has its own allowance. Mexico, Spain and any country whose e-invoicing is already active use clearly labeled pro formas (PRO series) for the commercial option; they do not replace tax invoices. Integrated fiscal issuance requires Starter or above, a configured issuer and the country’s registration enabled: paying for a plan does not enable it by itself. In Spain, Verifactu is in beta and needs your electronic certificate. In Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru and France, registration with the tax authority is being turned on.
A successful commercial issuance consumes one unit, just like a fiscal issuance. An uncertain issuance keeps its reservation until its result is reviewed. Reaching the limit does not disable existing document downloads or payments. Changing plans does not convert issued documents. New fiscal issuance after a downgrade requires an eligible plan.
Availability of the September improvements is being verified. See scope and release status; contact support if a described action is not yet shown in your account.
