PastCare Pricing Model

Pricing Formula (CRITICAL)

GHS Price = ceil(USD Price × Exchange Rate)

• Exchange rate is set by SUPERADMIN (default: 12.00)
• Always round UP using ceiling function (Math.ceil())
• USD prices are the BASE prices stored in the system
• GHS is calculated dynamically based on current exchange rate

Calculation Example

USD Price: $5.99
Exchange Rate: 12.00
Calculation: ceil(5.99 × 12) = ceil(71.88) = 72
GHS Price: GHS 72

Current Tier Pricing

Tier	Members	USD (Base)	GHS (at 12.00 rate)
Small	1-200	$5.99	GHS 72
Standard	201-500	$9.99	GHS 120
Professional	501-1000	$13.99	GHS 168
Enterprise	1001+	$17.99	GHS 216

Calculation Breakdown

Tier	USD × Rate	Ceiling	GHS
Small	5.99 × 12 = 71.88	ceil(71.88)	72
Standard	9.99 × 12 = 119.88	ceil(119.88)	120
Professional	13.99 × 12 = 167.88	ceil(167.88)	168
Enterprise	17.99 × 12 = 215.88	ceil(215.88)	216

Billing Intervals

Interval	Discount (USD)	Discount (GHS at 12.00)
Monthly	$0	GHS 0
Quarterly	$1.50 off	GHS 18 off
Biannual	$4.50 off	GHS 54 off
Annual	$12.00 off	GHS 144 off

Key Business Rules

1. NO FREE PLAN - Subscription required from day 1
2. All tiers have IDENTICAL features - Only member limit differs
3. Partnership codes - Only way to grant free access (admin-controlled)
4. GHS primary display - USD shown as secondary reference
5. Exchange rate configurable - SUPERADMIN can update rate

When Exchange Rate Changes

If SUPERADMIN changes the exchange rate, recalculate GHS prices:

// Backend calculation
BigDecimal ghsPrice = usdPrice.multiply(exchangeRate)
    .setScale(0, RoundingMode.CEILING);

// Frontend calculation
const ghsPrice = Math.ceil(usdPrice * exchangeRate);
