The new payment plan overview

Overview

Jumbula has recently introduced a new pricing model to offer greater flexibility and better address the needs of organizations based on size and usage patterns. Under the new pricing system, instead of a one-size-fits-all plan, there are pricing tiers designed to accommodate everything from small, seasonal providers to larger, ongoing programs and enterprises. The new model centers on a “pay-as-you-go” (PAYG) option alongside the existing flat-rate subscription plans.

Summary of the plans

The new pricing model is relevant to a broad spectrum of Jumbula users, including:
  1. PAYG - Small or seasonal providers (e.g., summer camps, short-term workshops, occasional classes) who might have seasonal enrollments and don’t want to commit to a fixed high monthly fee. For them, the PAYG plan offers minimal upfront cost and flexibility.
  2. Rise - Small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and ongoing class or program providers who require consistent, scalable enrollment management over time may find the best value in this mid-tier subscription plan.
  3. Ascend - Medium-to-large organizations (multi-class providers, recurring programs, institutions with many participants) that require robust features, unlimited enrollments, and dedicated support.
  4. Custom - Large enterprises, franchises, nonprofits, or organizations with special needs that require custom solutions — in these cases, Jumbula offers “Enterprise & Nonprofit Solutions” with tailored pricing and potential discounts.

Before you begin

Before choosing a plan under Jumbula’s new pricing, you should:
  1. Estimate your enrollment volume and usage patterns — Are you running seasonal courses with few participants? 
  2. Or do you have many ongoing programs with frequent registrations? The difference may affect whether PAYG or a subscription plan is more cost-effective.
  3. Estimate your enrollment volume and usage patterns — Are you running seasonal courses with few participants, or do you have many ongoing programs with frequent registrations? The difference may affect whether PAYG or a subscription plan is more cost-effective.
  4. Consider which features you need — Basic features (family portal, staff/family management, child safety, etc.) come with all plans. However, many useful tools (marketing emails, SMS/text messaging, additional seats for the Business App, photo sharing, inventory management, “WebConnect” for embedding classes on your site, and live-activity reminders) are available as add-ons.
  5. Check if your organization qualifies for special pricing — If you run a nonprofit or a free-of-charge activity program, Jumbula offers special discounts or custom plans that may apply.
  6. Think long-term about growth and scalability — If you expect your organization to expand (with more classes, increased enrollments, or recurring programs), a flat-rate plan with unlimited enrollments might offer better predictability than a PAYG plan with numerous add-ons.

How to choose and get started with the new pricing

If you are setting up Jumbula (or reconsidering your plan), follow these steps:
  1. Go to the Jumbula pricing page and review the available plans: PAYG, Rise, Ascend, or request a custom Enterprise/Nonprofit plan. 
  2. Use the built-in calculator to compare scenarios — Jumbula offers a tool to estimate your costs under different plans, depending on your projected enrollments, add-on usage (such as emails, text/SMS, and seats), and whether you pay monthly or annually.

3. Select the plan that fits your organization:
  1. For low-volume or occasional use → choose PAYG (starts at US $15/month, with first month free).
  2. For ongoing programs with predictable volume → consider Rise (flat US $150/month).
  3. For larger or growing operations needing more capacity and support → Ascend (US $285/month) or contact them for a custom Enterprise/Nonprofit plan.
4. Add any optional features (add-ons) as required. E.g., additional enrollments, marketing emails, text/SMS, business app seats, inventory, photo-sharing, etc. Price them according to the published rates on the site.
Notes
Note: If you are eligible for a nonprofit or free-activity discount, please contact Jumbula to discuss tailored pricing. They note that discounts may be applied, but may not be combinable with other offers.
5. Finalize your subscription: choose between monthly or annual billing — some plans offer discounts when billed annually (e.g., PAYG at a discounted yearly rate).
6. Proceed with onboarding — Once you subscribe, Jumbula provides access to its admin dashboard. You can start setting up your programs, including registration forms, waivers, capacity management, marketing, and payments.
