A One-Time Payment refers to a single, upfront transaction made by a user to access specific products, services, or features on our platform. Unlike subscription-based payments that recur periodically, a one-time payment is a non-recurring charge granting access to particular content or features without ongoing financial commitment.
On the Swiss Tax Institute platform, one-time payments are designed to provide flexibility and value for users who prefer to pay only for the content or tools they need, without committing to a subscription or membership model.
One-Time Payment in the Context of the Swiss Tax Institute #
Here’s how One-Time Payment applies specifically to our platform:
- Access to Individual Courses:
- Users can purchase individual courses without subscribing to a recurring plan.
- This option is ideal for learners who want access to a specific course without committing to a broader subscription.
- Once purchased, users retain lifetime access to the course content, including any downloadable materials.
- Tax and Finance Guides:
- Guides covering specific topics such as federal tax compliance, cantonal regulations, or niche areas like cryptocurrency taxation may be offered as one-time purchases.
- These guides are provided in downloadable formats (e.g., PDFs) for easy offline access.
- Future Tools and Calculators:
- When implemented, document templates, tax calculators, and other tools may also be made available for one-time payments.
- This ensures users can access practical resources without needing a subscription.
- Certification Fees:
- If users wish to obtain certifications for completing certain courses, a one-time payment may be required to process the certification.
