Vouchmark uses a wallet-based, pay-as-you-go model. Fund your wallet, and each verification or service call deducts from your balance in real time. There are no monthly minimums, no per-seat charges, and no hidden fees.
How billing works
- Fund your wallet — top up via card (Paystack) or bank transfer from the Billing page.
- Run verifications — each module deducts the listed cost from your balance when it executes.
- Monitor usage — the dashboard shows real-time spend per widget, per applicant, and per module.
- Auto top-up — optionally set a threshold; we recharge your wallet automatically when the balance drops below it.
Sandbox environment is always free. Costs only apply in the live environment.
All amounts below are in Naira. The API stores and returns these prices in kobo
(₦1 = 100 kobo). The GET /v1/wallet/pricing-rates endpoint returns both price
(Naira) and priceKobo for each action.
