Update Brand Usage Quota

Overview​

You can increase or decrease the brand quota (the upper limit on the number of brands that can be registered) available in the merchant environment according to your contract.

Purpose​

Changing the brand quota is used to adjust the upper limit in accordance with the organization's brand operations.

By increasing the quota within the range permitted by the contract, it becomes easier to support systems that handle multiple brands and to maintain the necessary brand configuration from the perspective of compliance and control.

By reducing the quota after organizing unnecessary brands, the contract details can be brought closer to the actual situation, making it easier to manage brand information centrally.

Feature Description​

What is brand quota?​

This is a quota indicating the upper limit on the number of brands that can be registered and used in the merchant environment.

In the Base Subscription, which is the prerequisite for using DEXTRE Merchant App, up to 2 brands can be used in the initial state.

If you wish to use 3 or more brands, you can expand the upper limit by purchasing brand quotas.

Relationship with Base Subscription​

The brand quota is an option contracted in addition to the Base Subscription.

When a brand quota is added, the upper limit on the number of brands that can be used in the merchant environment increases.

When increasing the brand quota, a prorated fee based on the number of brands added and the number of days remaining until the contract renewal date will be billed upon completion of the change procedure.

The payment method set for the Base Subscription will be used for payment.

At the time of contract renewal, the fee for the added brand quota will be billed together with the fee for the Base Subscription.

Immediate billing and immediate payment when increasing the quota​

If a change is made to increase the brand quota, the prorated fee will be billed in full at the same time the change procedure is completed.

If Credit card payment is set as the payment method for the Base Subscription, the payment process will be executed at the same time as the update operation for the change.

How to calculate prorated fees​

The prorated fee is calculated using the following formula:

Prorated amount = Fee for additional brands × (Days remaining in the standard plan period ÷ Total days in the standard plan period)

  • Fee for additional brands: Number of additional brands × 10,000 yen (excluding tax) × number of months in the standard plan period
  • Days remaining in the standard plan period: Number of days until the contract end date, including the date of additional purchase
  • Total days in the standard plan period: Number of days from the contract start date to the contract end date
  • Decimals are rounded down.

Calculation example

  • Date of additional purchase: August 8, 2025
  • Contract plan: Annual plan (12 months)
  • Contract start date: September 30, 2024
  • Contract end date: September 30, 2025
  • Number of additional brands: 1
  • Fee for additional brands: 120,000 yen (excluding tax)
  • Days remaining in the standard plan period: 54 days
  • Total days in the standard plan period: 366 days

Prorated amount: 120,000 yen × (54 ÷ 366) = 17,704 yen

Prerequisites for reducing the quota​

You cannot reduce the quota to below the number of brands currently registered and in use in the system.

When reducing the quota, please delete unnecessary brands in advance to reduce the actual number of registrations before performing the operation.
