How to Package and Structure Pricing for Your Customer Service Portal

Makula gives you full flexibility to define how digital services are packaged and priced within your field service revenue generation strategy. You decide what goes into the free tier, what’s offered as premium, and how much to charge based on your machines, markets, and business model.

Here’s one example of how you could structure your tiers to optimise field service operations and drive sustainable recurring income.

Tier Included Features Monthly Price / Machine
Free Service Ticketing, Machine Documentation 0 €
Premium Service Ticketing, SLA, 100 €

With Makula's Customer Portal, you can assign features based on customer, site, or machine, manually or automatically, so you stay in control of how your services are delivered and monetized.

How to Monetise Your Customer Portal Access

Example: “Digital Premium Access – 1200€/year”

Offer as an Optional Package in the SLA

Bundle digital features into a premium tier of your service-level agreements (SLAs). Example: “Silver SLA: Standard service” vs. “Gold SLA: Includes AI Copilot”

Upsell to Your Existing Installed Base
