Free capacity and paid accounting are separate decisions

Firezone Starter and Cloudflare Free are different-sized evaluations. For paid use, Firezone Team and Business also count seats differently, so applying the same employee count to both can misstate the bill. Cloudflare’s $7 rate states annual payment; this check did not establish an active-seat rule for it. [5][4][2][3]

Paid minimums, an equivalent full-stack feature match, Cloudflare’s ISO currency code and user-counting definition, taxes and negotiated enterprise totals are Unknown.

    Team uses static seats. Every user or service account present in your account is a billable seat, whether or not they sign in. Business and Enterprise use active, or floating, seats. Seats are counted by unique users or service accounts that signed in from a Firezone Client during the previous 30 days. Multiple client sign-ins by the same user or service account count as one seat, not additional seats.
