Zion bills schools through Polar, which acts as the merchant of record. Polar collects payment and remits tax in every market Zion sells into. Prices are quoted and charged in USD, with no currency conversion applied at checkout. Administrators manage subscriptions from Settings, under Billing. Supervisors and monitors see a read-only summary of the same status. Parents and students never see billing screens at all, apart from a calm notice if a school’s subscription lapses.

​
The four plans

Each plan builds on the one below it. The student cap is the number of active students the plan covers. Paying yearly costs the same as ten months, so two months are free. Starter, Lite, and Standard are subscribed to directly in Zion. Enterprise is arranged with the Zion team and also accepts bank transfer.

​
What each plan unlocks

  • Goal Check, including goals, marking, and the daily routines
  • Daily and weekly reports
  • Attendance marking
  • Students, the PACE catalog, PACE assignments, and academic terms
  • Data export
If you open a part of Zion your plan does not include, you see a locked screen explaining what the feature does and which plan unlocks it, rather than an error or an empty page.

​
The Founding 7

The Founding 7 is Zion’s launch offer: 30 days of the complete product, free.
1

Start the trial

Sign up and add a card. Nothing is charged.
2

Use everything for 30 days

Every feature is unlocked during the trial, whichever plan you eventually choose, with no student cap applied.
3

Choose or do nothing

At the end of the 30 days the trial converts to Lite unless you pick a different plan or cancel first. Cancel any time before it ends and you are not charged.
Migration concierge is free for Founding 7 schools, so the Zion team moves your existing students, staff, and records across at no cost.
Founding 50, the earlier flat $99 offer, is retired and closed to new schools. Schools already on it keep their rate.

Add-ons

​
Subscribing

1

Open Settings, then Billing

An administrator with no active subscription sees a Choose a plan screen.
2

Choose a plan

Pick Starter, Lite, or Standard, and choose monthly or yearly.
3

Pay

Payment and tax are handled on Polar’s payment page.
4

Return to Zion

You land back on Settings, Billing, and Zion confirms the subscription automatically once it is active.

​
If a payment is late

If a payment comes due and Polar is still retrying the charge, your school keeps full access while that plays out. If you cancel a plan, you keep access for the rest of the period you already paid for. Access stops once a payment fails for good, or once a cancelled plan’s paid period runs out.

​
What each role sees when billing lapses

When a school’s subscription is no longer active, anyone signed in to that school sees a subscription-needed screen instead of the dashboard. What appears there depends on the role.
Sees a remedy specific to the subscription’s status: a reactivate action that returns to Settings, Billing for statuses that need a fresh checkout, or a direct link into Polar’s customer portal for a past-due or unpaid card.

​
Updating a card or viewing invoices

Manage billing and Update payment method both take you to Polar’s customer portal, where you can update your card and see past invoices. The billing summary in Zion also shows a read-only card hint, such as the card brand, last four digits, and expiry, and never shows a full card number.
Which email addresses receive billing notices, and a history of the billing emails already sent, are both managed by administrators from Settings, under Billing.
