Why Is It Free?

Because we are a payments company, not a software company. Cloud Studio Manager is built by Host Merchant Services, and HMS earns its revenue when studios process payments. The software is how we earn the right to ask for that business, which is why it does not carry a licence fee.
That means the software is genuinely free whether or not you ever process a dollar through us. There is no trial clock and no feature held back.
  • Interchange-plus pricing with no software surcharge
  • Transparent fees, no hidden tiers
  • Next-day funding
  • 24/7 support from real specialists
  • No application fee
