Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use CometChat for free?

Yes! Everyone who signs up with us will automatically start on our free plan. This is our Developer Plan, with access to all of the features included in our Pro Plan* for up to 25 MAUs for as long as you need, giving you time to implement CometChat and experiment. When you're ready to launch, or you will exceed 25 MAUs, you can upgrade your plan in your CometChat Dashboard.

* HIPAA compliance is not available with our Free Developer Plan

What are Monthly Active Users?

A Monthly Active User (MAU) is a user that has connected to CometChat servers during the 30 day subscription period.

How is your pricing calculated?

Pricing is per month. It is based on your monthly Monthly Active Users (MAUs) plus a set monthly platform fee. The total you see after adjusting the MAU slider above is the price you’ll pay per month for a given plan.

I want an annual subscription, do you offer one?

Yes! Our sales team can help set up an annual contract for you.

Is voice and video calling included?

Every plan includes Voice and video functionality with Pro and Custom plans including free voice and video minutes. Pro customers get 15k voice and video minutes per month; Custom plan customers get 50k voice and video minutes per month. Minutes are split equally between voice and video regardless of plan. Essential plans do not include free voice and video minutes.

See the FAQ question What happens if I exceed my plan’s limits? for details regarding voice and video minutes.

What are Peak Concurrent Connections (PCCs)?

The maximum number of devices connected to CometChat at the same time. Note that this is the number of devices connected, not users. One user may be connected via two devices, which results in two concurrent connections.

How many Peak Concurrent Connections are included?

All plans include 5% Peak Concurrent Connections (PCC). For single-tenant subscriptions, this is calculated as the maximum number of connections to CometChat at any given time. For example, if your plan includes 10,000 MAU, 500 devices can be connected to CometChat at the same time. Beyond 5%, overages fees will apply. For multi-tenant subscriptions, PCC is measured by individual app and aggregated to the day level and the highest day during the subscription month is used.

See the FAQ question What happens if I exceed my plan’s limits? for details on overages.

If you have higher concurrency needs, contact us and we’ll work with you to find a plan and concurrency level that works for you. Customers who host events or live chat, for example, can purchase a plan that includes very high concurrency.

I have other questions about CometChat’s plans, billing, or product. Can I talk to someone?

Yes! The quickest way to get an answer to any of the above is to contact our sales team. They’re plan and product experts.

Do you offer HIPAA compliance?

Yes! Our chat is HIPAA compliant. In every case HIPAA requires a Business Associate Agreement (BAA). In the Essentials and Pro plans it’s a paid add-on. In the Custom plan BAA is an included add-on. Please reach out to get one set up.
