What you get with Standard
The Bright Standard plan gives you the full suite of the Bright Platform’s functionality, like flexible UI, learning paths, certificates, notifications, and the extensibility interface. If Bright can do it, you can do it!
Site licenses
Each WordPress site on the plan adds a license fee. The first site is $25/month; each additional site is 80% of the previous site fee (about $20, then $16, and so on).
Bright-linked registrations
When your SCORM Cloud realm is linked to Bright, registration fees use a tiered per-registration rate (minimum $40/month when you have linked realms and any registrations).
Unlinked registrations
Registrations from SCORM Cloud realms not linked to Bright are billed at 10% of the tiered registration fee, or $0.10 per registration, whichever is lower.
Loyalty reward: In a loyalty month, you may receive up to $50 off linked registration fees (50% of the fee when it is under $50). Registration discount: When you pay both site and registration fees, registration fees can reduce your site license total. Estimates from the calculator are for planning only—your actual invoice follows your Bright account.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about the Standard plan and how we calculate your bill.
What counts as a registration?
A registration is counted when a learner is first associated with a course in SCORM Cloud for the billing period—via invite, API, or your WordPress integration. Revisiting the same course does not create additional registrations.
What is a linked vs. unlinked SCORM Cloud realm?
A linked realm is connected to your Bright account and WordPress site(s). Registrations there use the full tiered Bright-linked rate. An unlinked realm is a SCORM Cloud account you use alongside Bright but have not connected—those registrations are billed at the reduced unlinked rate.
How do site licenses work?
Each WordPress installation on your plan needs a site license. The first site is $25 per month; each additional site costs 80% of the previous site’s fee. If your registration fees exceed your site fees for the month, the difference can reduce what you pay for site licenses.
What is a loyalty month?
During a loyalty month, you receive a credit on Bright-linked registration fees: 50% of the fee when it is under $50, or a flat $50 credit when the fee is $50 or more. Your account team can confirm whether a given month qualifies.
Is the calculator the same as my invoice?
The calculator uses the same fee rules as Bright billing, but your actual invoice may reflect adjustments, taxes, or usage recorded in your account. Use estimates for planning; refer to your Bright dashboard and invoices for amounts due.
Why is there a $40 minimum on registration fees?
When you have linked realms and billable linked registrations, the tiered registration total has a minimum of $40 per month before loyalty credits and cross-discounts with site fees.
