Cleaner Invoice Discounts After Pricing Updates

Invoices generated by Freemius include helpful information about various discounts, such as annual discounts and multi-license discounts, to help build buyer trust and confidence.

Freemius invoice example

However, we received feedback from our makers that discounts did not always look good, especially after a pricing update. For example, if makers increased their prices, the invoice could show a discount line saying “Additional Discounts”, which may not always be appealing to buyers.

Invoice with additional discount

To address this feedback, we are rolling out an update to our system. Invoices can now detect when there has been a pricing update and, in such cases, avoid rendering those additional discount lines to keep the invoice simple and straightforward.

Invoice without additional discount

This change applies only when the product pricing has been updated. Otherwise, invoices will continue showing discounts as before. We hope this addresses the issue. If you have any feedback, you can always contact our support team from the Developer Dashboard.
