Pricing
Service Fee only
No subscription. No upfront cost. Rand charges a tiered Service Fee only after the ATO issues your R&D Benefit. Brackets are based on your Eligible R&D Expenditure, and each rate is applied to the slice of your R&D Benefit attributable to spend in that bracket.

Common questions
When do I pay?
Only after the ATO assesses your R&D Claim and your R&D Benefit is issued. Rand invoices the Service Fee at that point, never before.
What does 'marginal' mean?
Brackets are on your Eligible R&D Expenditure, like income tax brackets. The rate for each bracket is applied to the slice of your R&D Benefit attributable to that portion of your spend. So a company with $300k of Eligible R&D Expenditure pays 10% on the R&D Benefit slice from the first $100k of spend, and 9% on the slice from the next $200k.
What if my Claim isn't successful?
You pay nothing. The Service Fee is tied to the R&D Benefit outcome, not the work performed.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. No subscription, no retainer, no per-seat charge, no setup fee. The Service Fee schedule is the complete pricing.
