Smarter Multi-Currency Pricing Cloning

This week, we rolled out some UX improvements to our Plans & Pricing page, with a particular focus on multi-currency pricing.

When you add pricing for a new currency, our Dashboard already makes the process easier by cloning your existing pricing. Until now, it always used USD as the source currency. It would create the same number of license variations (or quota variations) and convert the USD prices to the target currency based on the current exchange rate.

However, this meant that if you didn’t have USD pricing configured, the newly created pricing would be empty.

With today’s deployment, the Dashboard will now automatically pick the first available currency and clone the pricing from there. This makes adding new currencies work seamlessly regardless of which currency you started with.

In addition, the newly created pricing will now preserve the pricing convention of the source currency.

For example:

  • If your original pricing uses integers only, the converted pricing will also use integers, regardless of the exchange rate.
  • If your original pricing ends in .99, the newly generated pricing will follow the same convention.

This should make it easier to expand your pricing into additional currencies without having to manually clean up converted prices afterward, while keeping your pricing consistent across markets.

Fixed Incorrect Pricing in the License Renewal Checkout

We noticed an edge-case bug in our Checkout where, if a pricing configuration was incomplete or invalid, it could appear incorrectly in the license dropdown during a license renewal.

We have identified and fixed the bug. As part of the fix, we also tested various license renewal scenarios to make sure the Checkout handles different pricing configurations correctly.

Serbian Dinar Is Now Supported in Freemius Checkout

Following requests from our makers, this week we’re rolling out support for yet another local currency in our Checkout: the Serbian Dinar.

To set it up, simply go to Plans → Pricing in the Developer Dashboard and add the RSD currency.

Once configured, your Checkout is ready to accept payments in Serbian Dinar.

We hope this helps you better serve and convert customers in your local market. If you have a significant local audience and would like Freemius to support another regional currency, please get in touch with us. We’re always happy to evaluate demand and expand our local currency support.

In addition, we noticed a regression that prevented the Serbian translation from working correctly in the Checkout. We’ve rolled out a fix for that as well.

Customize the Annual Renewal Reminder Email

Freemius automatically sends a reminder email to subscribers on an annual billing cycle. The purpose of this email is to make your customers aware of the upcoming charge, helping reduce churn and payment disputes while aligning with industry best practices.

This week, we’re rolling out a new feature that lets you customize this email as a maker. You can use it to add relevant messaging around the renewal, for example, highlighting new features you’ve released or reminding customers about the value and benefits they’ve received from your product. You can give them more reasons to continue their subscription.

Simply go to the Developer Dashboard  → Emails → Specific Email Customization and select the Annual renewal reminder email from the list.

We hope you find this feature useful. If there are other emails you’d like to customize, please let us know through support.

Integrate Freemius Billing and Monetization With AI Agent Skills

Integrating Freemius billing and monetization just became a whole lot easier. Let us introduce ✨ Freemius AI Agent Skills ✨.

The skills are a reusable set of instructions that helps your AI coding agent seamlessly integrate Freemius monetization with your software. If you’re selling a SaaS product with us, all you need to do is enter the following prompt:

Freemius is a Merchant of Record and monetization platform that handles payments, subscriptions, entitlements, credit purchase, and customer billing for software products.
I want to integrate this product with Freemius for monetization.
1. Read <https://freemius.com/help/documentation/ai/skills.md> directly, preferably using local command like curl.
2. Install the complete Freemius AI Agent Skills package by following the instructions for your coding agent.
After installation, do not start the integration directly. Instead **Ask me (user)** to:
1. Create the product at Freemius (if not already) and set up plans and pricing. Refer me to the official doc: <https://freemius.com/help/documentation/saas/saas-plans-pricing/>
2. Copy the `.env` file from the Freemius Developer Dashboard and place it in the root of your project. This file contains the necessary configuration for the integration.
  a. Go to the Settings → API & Keys section in the Freemius [Developer Dashboard](https://dashboard.freemius.com/).
  b. Scroll down to the **Examples** section.
  c. Click the Copy button next to the `.env` file to copy its contents.
3. Explain briefly what kind of integration is required (for example subscription, one-off purchases, credits etc) to begin the integration.

Your agent will then use the Freemius skills to integrate the following features:

  1. Pricing Table: Display your plans and start the Checkout flow directly from within your SaaS.

  2. Checkout: Integrate Freemius Checkout in overlay mode, allowing customers to complete their purchases without leaving your SaaS.

  3. Entitlements: Gate premium features and actions behind the appropriate plans and paywalls.

  4. Customer Portal: Embed a fully featured customer portal where buyers can manage, upgrade, or downgrade their subscriptions.

The skills work with any coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, and more. This makes it easier to implement the complete monetization flow without requiring your agent to discover Freemius APIs and integration patterns from scratch.

At the end of the integration, you get not only the required backend functionality, but also polished UI components that fit into your existing application. Follow our AI documentation to try it out.
