Starter
The complete generally available core platform for institutions operating one campus or many.
Best for: Schools replacing fragmented spreadsheets and disconnected tools
Commercial model
One annual institutional licence, calculated on student-volume bands and shaped by the plan you choose. The three plans are below; figures follow in a written proposal after a short discovery.
No hidden module wall. No compulsory rip-and-replace. Scope, ownership and success measures agreed before deployment.
How pricing works
Student numbers set the scale. The plan sets how much operational and governance control you get. The two are decided separately.
Plan architecture
Every plan includes the complete generally available core operational platform. Essential school operations are not unlocked by upgrading from Starter to Pro or Enterprise. Plans differ in agreed messaging and AI allowances, analytics depth, workflow sophistication, identity and integration options, customisation and advanced governance. Standard implementation and support remain included in every plan; any custom SLA is separately agreed. Specific inclusions and consumption limits are documented in the proposal.

Best for: Schools replacing fragmented spreadsheets and disconnected tools
Operational command for institutions that need deeper visibility and accountability.
Best for: Growing schools taking on more operational complexity
Institutional governance, cross-campus command and advanced controls for larger or more complex institutions.
Best for: Educational trusts and multi-campus groups

Core platform and plan depth
Every plan includes the complete generally available core operational platform. Essential school operations are not unlocked by upgrading from Starter to Pro or Enterprise.
Starter, Pro and Enterprise support multi-campus operations with campus-level administration and role-aware workflows. Advanced centralised institutional governance is a separate dimension; campus count alone does not require an upgrade.
Institutions on Starter, Pro or Enterprise may request optional single sign-on with Microsoft Entra ID as a separately quoted enhancement, subject to technical onboarding. Once configured, staff use their institutional accounts under the institution's own MFA, Conditional Access and user-assignment policies, while SquareCampus governs authorisation. Availability and commercial terms are confirmed before activation.
The same separately quoted Entra SSO option can be requested on Starter. Supported sign-in methods are confirmed before activation; single sign-on does not replace SquareCampus authorisation.
Enterprise in detail

Core platform and plan depth
Every plan includes the complete generally available core operational platform. Essential school operations are not unlocked by upgrading from Starter to Pro or Enterprise.
Starter, Pro and Enterprise support multi-campus operations with campus-level administration and role-aware workflows. Advanced centralised institutional governance is a separate dimension; campus count alone does not require an upgrade.
Enterprise is differentiated by identity governance rather than by having SSO. Identity requirements across several campuses or directories, directory-group to role mappings, SSO enforcement policy, joiner-mover-leaver lifecycle controls, identity migration and identity audit controls are scoped as Enterprise requirements during technical discovery.
Enterprise is not Pro with more modules. It is selected when governance, identity, audit or cross-campus requirements sit above what ordinary controls provide. Identity governance requirements are established during technical discovery and set out in the proposal.

How the licence is composed
The annual platform licence is not a module count. It is the sum of institutional scale, the plan selected (how much operational and governance control it includes), the complexity of the institution and how the platform is delivered.
Proposal inputs
Annual platform licence
One annual institutional licence, assessed against these four inputs during scoping. Migration, integrations and other separately quoted services remain distinct lines.
Active enrolled students
Student volume sets the platform baseline. Larger enrolments sit in progressively better volume bands, so the marginal rate reduces as the institution grows.
Starter, Pro or Enterprise
The plan reflects how much operational and governance control the institution needs — from connected core operations through to trust-level command.
Campuses, workflows, roles and governance
Multiple campuses, deeper approval chains and wider role structures change the shape of the rollout and the shape of the commercial.
Deployment, integrations and support
The deployment profile, integrations and support model are set out explicitly rather than folded into an unstated blended rate. Migration is included from Pro.
What Enterprise adds
An ordinary ERP grows by adding modules. Enterprise grows by adding institutional governance: the structure, command, identity, audit and deployment controls a trust or a complex institution actually has to run on.
| Dimension | Ordinary ERP modules | SquareCampus Enterprise |
|---|---|---|
| Institutional structure | Several schools run as separate instances or branches | Advanced trust-school-campus governance requirements: inherited policy and recorded local exceptions, subject to scoping |
| Command | Consolidated reports prepared from each branch | Trust-level command-view requirements, scoped against available reporting capabilities |
| Governance | Approval steps inside individual modules | Advanced approval and exception-ownership requirements across workflows and campuses, scoped during discovery |
| Identity | User accounts per instance | Identity governance: multi-directory requirements, group-to-role mappings, SSO enforcement policy and lifecycle controls, scoped during discovery |
| Auditability | Change logs per module | Advanced policy controls and audit-export requirements; institution-owned data and supported portability apply to every plan |
| Intelligence | Reports and dashboards | Governed AEGIS access requirements and allowances, confirmed against available capabilities |
| Deployment and integration | Vendor cloud, standard connectors | Managed cloud, private-cloud or on-premises eligibility, enterprise integrations and implementation governance |
The identity provider establishes who a person is. SquareCampus decides what that person may do: institution membership, campus scope, roles, workflow privileges, record access and operational permissions are governed inside SquareCampus and are never derived from an email address or domain alone. Sign-in options by plan
Fit
SquareCampus is priced for institutions that want governance, workflow ownership, exception management, visibility and auditability. To one that needs only the cheapest attendance, fees and report-card product it will look expensive — and that reading is correct.
Best suited to
SquareCampus may not be the right fit if
Volume-based pricing
Student volume sets platform scale, and larger volumes use the shared platform foundation more efficiently. The commercial model reflects those economies rather than imposing a flat rate for every institution.
The institution benefits from its own scale
SquareCampus maintains one shared platform baseline — capacity, security, observability, workflow infrastructure and the operations behind them. That baseline does not multiply with every additional student.
Larger institutions therefore receive the benefit of platform economies of scale. The marginal rate reduces as enrolment grows, while the selected plan reflects the workflow, analytics, governance and deployment depth required. An institution is not charged the entry rate indefinitely for growing.
Platform foundation
Shared capacity, security and operations.
Greater utilisation
Larger enrolments use that foundation more fully.
Lower marginal rate
The benefit returns to the institution.

Shared platform foundation — constant across every band
Pricing uses progressive, volume-based student bands. The chart shows the direction of the marginal rate as enrolment grows — the bands themselves are set out in your proposal.
What shapes the proposal
A proposal is only useful if it reflects the institution as it actually operates. These are the dimensions mapped before commercial terms are issued.
The billable enrolment basis for the term.
Single campus, group, or trust hierarchy.
Which operational areas move onto the platform.
How much history moves, and in what state, so we can say early what cannot.
Accounting, identity, payments and existing institutional systems.
Managed cloud, private cloud, or on-premises.
Response expectations and escalation structure.
Approval chains, policy controls and audit expectations.
Whether governed intelligence is in scope, and at what depth.
Messaging volume and document storage.
Exact commercial terms are issued after a short institutional discovery.
Request a proposalIncluded versus separately scoped
The licence already covers your plan, the apps, self-serve reports, implementation and support, a monthly usage allowance and, from Pro, data migration. Anything else is optional and priced in the proposal before you sign.
Every capability theme listed for your plan.
The standard SquareCampus apps, at no extra charge.
Filter, group, total and chart your tables, save views and export to Excel, CSV or PDF.
In every plan, with no paid fast track. Designed to need little or no training.
SMS, WhatsApp and storage, plus AEGIS where your plan includes it.
Everything your current system can export in usable form. Anything that cannot move is shown before go-live.
White-labelled Android and iOS apps under your own branding carry one charge for the whole agreed term. Founding Institutional Partners receive them without it.
Available separately
Institutions on Starter, Pro or Enterprise may request optional single sign-on with Microsoft Entra ID as a separately quoted enhancement, subject to technical onboarding. Once configured, staff use their institutional accounts under the institution's own MFA, Conditional Access and user-assignment policies, while SquareCampus governs authorisation. Availability and commercial terms are confirmed before activation.
Separately quoted enhancement
Institution-branded parent and staff apps and store listings are quoted separately. The existing single charge covers the agreed term; founding-partner treatment follows its separate agreement. Delivery readiness is confirmed during scoping.
Allowances and usage charges
Every plan includes the agreed monthly SMS, WhatsApp and storage allowances, and AEGIS where included. Usage beyond the allowance is prepaid at proposal rates, never billed after the fact. Email and other external-service scope are confirmed separately; no universal quotas or unlimited-use entitlements are published.
Contact sales to assess requirements
Discuss advanced analytics, additional AI credits, extended branding, provisioning and federation requirements. Product availability, plan eligibility and commercial treatment require confirmation; confirm the supported scope with sales before commitment.
Custom-quoted professional services
Data migration is included in Pro and Enterprise and quoted on Starter, on a best-effort basis against usable source exports. Custom integrations and engineering are quoted as project work. Consumption beyond agreed allowances is prepaid.
Contact sales for a scoped proposal
Enhanced support, contractual SLA options and specialised deployment requirements are assessed separately. Response commitments, service levels and eligibility exist only where agreed in the contract.
Three commercial paths
The complimentary launch pilot is separate from the standard paid subscription and from the Founding Institutional Partner programme. Launch-pilot participation does not confer founding status or its negotiated privileges.
The normal paid SquareCampus subscription, with plan entitlements, consumption allowances and separately quoted requirements agreed in the proposal and order form.

Common foundations
Tenant isolation, secure authentication, role-based authorisation, protection of institutional records, essential security logging and privacy safeguards are baseline requirements in every plan. Advanced identity governance and expanded audit controls are separately scoped; fundamental security is not a premium feature.
The institution owns its institutional data in every plan. We earn continued adoption through operational value, with supported data exports and documented offboarding rather than artificial lock-in. Export scope, available formats, access arrangements and assistance are confirmed for the deployment; retention and deletion follow the agreement, the DPA and applicable obligations. Export formats and timing are established before commitment.
Procurement questions
Answers here describe how the model works. The signed order form governs the specific terms for your institution.
The licensing model is published on the pricing page; figures are issued in a written proposal after institutional discovery. One published figure would be wrong for most institutions, in both directions.

Usually not. SquareCampus is priced for institutions that want governance, workflow ownership, exception management, visibility and auditability. To one that needs only the cheapest attendance, fees and report-card product it will look expensive — and that reading is correct.
Yes. A pilot covers one campus or one workflow bundle, and your ERP keeps running and stays authoritative. Replacing anything is a later decision, taken on evidence.
Data migration is included in Pro and Enterprise, and quoted on Starter. We move everything your current system can export in usable form. If it lacks data SquareCampus needs, or is too fragmented to reconcile, we show you what cannot move before go-live instead of guessing.
Reporting is self-serve in every plan: staff filter, group, total and chart their tables, save views for the team and export to Excel, CSV or PDF. A fixed-format document made only for your institution, such as your own report-card layout, is quoted; a format many schools need becomes a standard report at no charge.
Nothing extra. Implementation and support are included in every plan, and every institution gets the same rollout: there is no paid fast track. SquareCampus is designed to need little or no training. Only a custom SLA, such as 24×7 cover or guaranteed response times, is quoted.
Not by surprise. Everything optional is priced in the proposal before you sign, and usage beyond the allowance is prepaid, so the proposal you sign is the bill you get. Enrolment growth is reconciled through the agreed true-up.
Not today. Enterprise can scope a dedicated deployment on AWS, in a private cloud or on premises, with responsibilities set out before implementation.
Secure authentication and role-based access are baseline requirements in every plan. SquareCampus-managed sign-in is included in the baseline plan scope; supported sign-in methods and deployment readiness are confirmed before activation. Additional verification for privileged roles is established during technical onboarding. Institutions on Starter, Pro or Enterprise may request optional single sign-on with Microsoft Entra ID as a separately quoted enhancement, subject to technical onboarding. Once configured, staff use their institutional accounts under the institution's own MFA, Conditional Access and user-assignment policies, while SquareCampus governs authorisation.

Identity requirements across several campuses or directories, directory-group to role mappings, SSO enforcement policy, joiner-mover-leaver lifecycle controls, identity migration and identity audit controls are scoped as Enterprise requirements during technical discovery.
No. Entra ID sign-in authenticates identity only; no access to email, files, Teams or SharePoint is needed.
No. Single sign-on authenticates. Automated provisioning and joiner-mover-leaver controls are identity governance, part of Enterprise and established during technical discovery.
Quoted commercial figures are exclusive of applicable taxes unless the proposal states otherwise. Applicable Indian taxes are shown on the order form and on tax invoices issued by Fairhelm Systems (OPC) Private Limited under GSTIN 29AAHCF1819L1ZA.
Not included in Starter; in Pro when the proposal includes it; in Enterprise within an agreed monthly allowance. Usage beyond the allowance is prepaid, so it never becomes a surprise bill.
Starter, Pro and Enterprise support multi-campus operations with campus-level administration and role-aware workflows. Advanced centralised institutional governance is a separate dimension; campus count alone does not require an upgrade. A trust-level agreement can cover agreed campuses; advanced central policy and governance requirements are scoped separately.
There are exactly two Founding Institutional Partner positions, ever: one school or eligible school institution, and one university. Once both positions are allocated, the programme closes permanently. A Founding Institutional Partner is not an ordinary customer.
