Turn any feature in your software and service into recurring revenue — no payment stack, no subscription requirement, no checkout friction.
VIVA Points is a free credit/micropayment system for software developers: you unlock features, AI services, or consumable services via API. VIVA handles billing, payment flow, and payouts.
Why are micropayments gaining ground now?
Software is no longer sold solely as a “product” or “subscription.”
Users expect:
Pay-per-use instead of fixed packages or subscriptions
Add-ons and extra features as needed
AI services (translation, image processing, generation) as on-demand services
For developers, this is an opportunity — but also a problem: Many build ingenious features but don’t monetize them because payment, taxes, refunds, fraud, pricing logic, and reporting are too much effort.
How do you monetize your features?
You have many features — but no monetization system for them.
Typical cases:
Print/Export/Translate only occasionally → subscription not worthwhile
Team collaboration → few users need it, but they are willing to pay for it
AI functions → variable consumption (per image, per text, per minute)
Templates/assets → small amounts, high frequence
Performance/batch jobs → bill per run
What developers then do:
Leave feature free → no revenue
Inflate subscription → churn, poor fit
Build own payment system → time, risk, maintenance
The solution: VIVA Points micropayment system via API
With the VIVA Points API, you can unlock features in your software permanently or sporadically:
Pay-per-use: 1 action = X points
Bundles: e.g., 100/1,000/10,000 points
Free quota: monthly free points for everyone (freemium)
Usage-based pricing: perfect for AI services
How it works (high level):
User has a VIVA Points account
Your app queries the account balance via API
When the feature is used, you deduct points
VIVA calculates the bill, and you automatically receive your payment
