These are real payment rails, not a checkout demo. Hive runs on Stripe, Mercury USD wire, Square, and USDC on Base, so you can pay however your AP department already works. You get NET-30 invoicing, a W-9 on request, and MSA and DPA templates ready to redline. Once you sign a PO, your integration goes live fast.
Hive plugs directly into the payment tools your AP team already uses. Pick whichever rail fits your workflow. Every tier except Starter can get NET-30 invoicing on request.
Pay by card, ACH debit, or USD wire through Stripe. This is the main self-serve rail for Starter and Growth tiers, up to $50K a month. Cards activate instantly, and ACH settles in 2 days.
Stripe-issued invoices available. Contact billing@thehiveryiq.com for ACH or wire setup.
This is for AP departments that need a wire transfer workflow. NET-30 invoicing is available, and we'll send a W-9 on request. It's the preferred rail for Growth and Enterprise invoices above $5K a month.
Routing and account details provided after countersigned order form. Email billing@thehiveryiq.com to initiate.
This works for SMB self-serve customers who like Square's familiar invoice workflow. It fits the Starter tier and month-to-month arrangements under $5K a month.
Request a Square invoice by emailing billing@thehiveryiq.com with your contact and order details.
This is on-chain settlement for organizations that hold treasury in stablecoins. It settles straight to the Hive treasury address on Base mainnet (chain ID 8453). We never custody your funds. You keep the on-chain receipt.
Contact billing@thehiveryiq.com before sending. Include your organization name and order reference in the tx memo field if your wallet supports it.
Every tier gets the same post-quantum receipt infrastructure. What changes by tier is your volume ceiling, support channel, SLA commitment, and enterprise add-ons. Prepay annually and your rate is locked for 12 months.
All prices are in USD. You can prepay annually at the same monthly rate, locked for 12 months. Volume discounts kick in above 1M verifications a month. See the discount schedule below. Taxes aren't included where they apply.
Every document your procurement team will ask for is either ready now or on a clear timeline. Email ap@thehiveryiq.com with your PO, and we'll send back a countersigned order form within one business day.
These are questions that reviewers at companies like Netskope and Cloudflare have asked us, or are likely to ask. We have more due-diligence documentation ready on request.
Hive Civilization, Inc. is a Delaware C-Corp. It's incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, United States. Steve Rotzin is founder and CEO.
We can share it under NDA or as part of a countersigned order form. Email billing@thehiveryiq.com with your organization name and what you need it for.
Errors & Omissions (E&O) coverage is planned. You can read our current risk posture at /security/founder-risk/. If you need insurance certificates for a procurement review, email billing@thehiveryiq.com and we'll talk through coverage timelines and what we can offer in the meantime.
Our infrastructure runs in the United States by default. Compute is hosted on Render, and Cloudflare handles edge and DNS. If you're on the Enterprise tier and need EU data residency, we can set that up on request. Contact sales@thehiveryiq.com to talk through regional deployment options.
Right now our sub-processors are Render (compute infrastructure), Cloudflare (edge network and DNS), Stripe (card and ACH payment processing), and Mercury (USD wire banking). You can see the full list at /security/. The Enterprise DPA includes a sub-processor addendum, so you'll be notified if anything material changes.
Either side can end the agreement with 30 days written notice. We don't start deleting data before that notice period is up. If you're on annual prepay and cancel early, you won't get a pro-rata refund unless your Enterprise MSA says otherwise. Month-to-month subscriptions can be cancelled at the end of any billing period with 30 days notice.
Yes. Annual prepay locks in your rate for the full 12-month period. If prices change during that time, it won't affect you until renewal. Your volume discount rate is locked in too, for the whole prepay term.
Enterprise tier customers can request an annual SOC 2 Type 1 readiness letter. We have a published timeline toward a SOC 2 Type 2 audit once revenue supports it. You can read our security posture at /security/. If you're a regulatory or government customer and need more audit rights, contact sales@thehiveryiq.com and we'll talk through what we can add to the MSA.
Growth tier gets a 99.9% monthly uptime SLA. Enterprise tier gets 99.99%. We measure downtime as the total minutes in a calendar month where the production API returns errors on more than 50% of requests, not counting scheduled maintenance (which we announce 24 hours ahead). We issue credits to your account in the following billing period: fall between 99.9% and 99.0% uptime and you get a 10% credit; below 99.0%, a 25% credit; below 95.0%, a 50% credit. The Enterprise SLA credit schedule is spelled out in the MSA.
Starter gets 100 requests per second at burst, 50 sustained. Growth gets 500 at burst, 250 sustained. Enterprise gets custom rate limits, negotiated for your deployment. Every API response includes rate limit headers. Need a temporary bump for load testing or a high-volume event? Email billing@thehiveryiq.com.
Volume discounts apply automatically to the per-verification rate on the Enterprise tier. We measure thresholds as your average monthly verifications over the contract term. You can combine annual prepay with volume discounts. Contact sales for a blended quote.
Volume thresholds are calculated on a rolling 3-month average at the time of renewal. Contact billing@thehiveryiq.com for a custom rate schedule if your expected volume exceeds 10M verifications per month.
Enterprise quote requests go to billing. Sales and technical questions go to Steve Rotzin, our founder. We check both inboxes every day.
