Screen Grab from Matterport eBlast received Friday, January 31, 2020 ----- [Text and Graphic Below] 360 CAMERA PROCESSING FEES FOR CLASSIC CLOUD PLANS Happy New Year, and thank you for being a loyal Matterport customer. We wanted to inform you about an upcoming change regarding 360 camera usage in legacy cloud plans like yours. As you know, Matterport started supporting space creation with a few compatible 360 cameras early last year. We noticed that you created some spaces with these cameras and are glad that you experimented with this new way of capturing your Matterport spaces. Although we announced processing prices for 360 camera spaces last year, we decided to let our customers enjoy this new capability for free until now. Starting on February 1st, 2020, Matterport will charge processing fees for spaces captured with compatible 360 cameras used in the Classic Cloud Plans. Newer Matterport cloud plans do not include processing fees. If you would like to avoid processing fees, please upgrade your account to one of these newer plans. Additional questions? Please visit the support page or contact our support team. [support@Matterport.com] Thank you for being a member of our community. -The Matterport Team Source: Matterport eBlast received Friday, January 31, 2020 |

It’s a little tricky in wording. 360 cams are supported however, they bill at $29 & $58 depending on small or large space size | ||

I swear these guys get off on dropping bombs in January. Curious if they will start charging us on tours that currently have 360's from Compatible 360 Cameras added into existing tours. *I just added a couple to a tour a couple days ago. *Don't have access to an Ipad that died with Compatible 360 Camera shots in it. |

Zillow charges zero for their tours. My wife is a real estate agent. I set her up with a Matterport account and I only shoot for her now. I work for "free" but the fringe benefits are awesome. LOL | ||

I am not sure I understand what it means. I opened an account at the beginning of Jan and upgraded to 5 spaces. Even though I have the Mettarport camera, I can only shoot with 360 cameras on this plan. I only shot one tour and have several more planned in the near future. Does it mean now they are going to charge extra when shooting with that camera? |

I think they are only charging if you are on a legacy plan. | ||

I might be wrong but I think this only applies to anyone with a classic plan??? | ||

@virtualpro you are correct. These pricing updates only apply to classic plans. | ||

So, have both plans. Upload into the new plan, then transfer it to the classic plan once it's processed. | ||

So what should a person like me do? I do about 4 to 10 home scans a month on the classic 49.99 plan with an Insta 360 One X? | ||

Adapt or die as they say. You can take comfort in knowing that your Matterport competition will be asking the same questions. At least it is still a level playing field if you sell Matterport. | ||

Thank’s Dan for merging mine over. So my question is everybody doing enough scans to have the new plan. Or are people moving to other platforms? | ||

Stay on the classic, only once you start going well into overages and scanning lots of models with over 100 scan points then it is worth getting a new plan. Matterport has said that they would give one year grace from the time that they announce they are discontinuing the classic plan, plenty of time to get things sorted. |
