Revenue model

1. SaaS Software Rental (Subscription): Core revenue stream from renting cloud-based business management software on annual subscription plans (1, 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36-month terms). Customers pay periodic license fees to access the YSM.Bulut platform. The 'pay-as-you-use' or 'pay-as-you-subscribe' model minimizes upfront investment and is accessible to KOBİs. Pricing varies by product, package tier, number of users, or number of vehicles/assets managed.
2. Professional Services (Training, Consulting, Implementation): Additional revenue from training, consulting, and technical support services offered to customers. Companies can purchase custom one-on-one training and consulting services tailored to their business. Implementation and onboarding support also generates fees.
3. Channel Partner Revenue Sharing: Revenue generated through the dealer/distributor network where partners earn commissions on license sales and retain full service revenue for training, consulting, and technical support they deliver. Master dealers receive additional rebates for exceeding quarterly/annual targets.
