Frequently asked questions
What does Maxio cost?
Most teams start on Grow at $599/month, which covers up to $100k in monthly billings and includes usage-based billing, subscription management, collections and dunning, and 20+ payment gateways. Above that threshold Maxio quotes a custom Scale plan. Users are unlimited at no extra charge, while advanced revenue management, A/R management, multi-entity, event-based billing and EU hosting are optional modules. Annual payment is the default, with premium monthly or quarterly options.
How long does implementation take?
Maxio runs a 'Rapid Start Implementation' programme, and one published customer (VERO) went live in two weeks. Larger multi-entity or advanced revenue management rollouts typically take longer. No mandatory implementation fee is published; scope is discussed on a demo call.
Does Maxio handle both subscription and usage-based billing?
Yes. Maxio supports recurring subscriptions, add-ons, quantity-based charges, metered and event-based usage, prepaid usage and tokens/wallets, plus hybrid models, with proration across upgrades, downgrades and mid-term changes.
Is Maxio compliant with SOC 2 and ISO 27001?
Yes. Maxio's security page states annual SOC 1 Type 2 and SOC 2 Type 2 audits, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, PCI DSS 4.01 compliance for Maxio Payments and Advanced Billing, and GDPR support including EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework certification.
What is Maxio MCP and can I use my own AI assistant?
Maxio MCP is a vendor-built Model Context Protocol server that connects governed Maxio financial data to approved AI tools. It enforces existing permissions and authenticates and logs every interaction, and can prepare items such as sales orders for review. Maxio does not publish how the underlying model is supplied, so key-management terms should be confirmed with the vendor.
Who is Maxio best for?
B2B SaaS and AI companies that have outgrown basic billing tools - typically scale-ups with a finance or RevOps function managing hybrid subscription and usage pricing, multi-entity consolidation and ASC 606 / IFRS 15 revenue recognition.
