# Service pricing

An authenticating end-user does not have to pay for using Signicat's broker service, instead Signicat has commercial agreements with the online service providers (online shops, service portals, etc.). Pricing is based on subscription (fixed monthly fee) and transaction fees (dynamic based on usage). Signicat bills through the third-party fees for identity service providers (e.g. online banks) as described in Finnish legislation: Laki vahvasta sähköisestä tunnistamisesta ja sähköisistä luottamuspalveluista (29.3.2019/412), section 12 c §.
