the numbers actually work

Pay only for what happens in the field

Questions from teams
considering a switch
Does PMR replace all eMerchan features?
PMR covers core field execution: GPS check-in, digital checklists, geotagged photos, real-time reports and stockout tracking. For teams focused on PDV execution with predictable costs and same-day onboarding, PMR is the direct alternative to eMerchan. AI image recognition is available as an Add-on.
How does PMR pricing compare to eMerchan?
eMerchan charges a fixed monthly fee per user regardless of visit volume. PMR charges per visit executed, from $0.40. For operations with seasonal variation or reps who don't always reach full capacity, pay-per-visit is significantly more cost-effective.
How does migration from eMerchan to PMR work?
No complex technical integration needed to get started. Field reps install the app, managers configure checklists in the dashboard, and visits can be monitored on day one. Our team supports onboarding at no extra cost.
Does PMR require a minimum contract?
No. PMR's pay-per-visit model requires no lock-in or minimum commitment. Scale up during campaigns and scale down in off-season without penalties. Volume discounts apply automatically.
Volume policy: higher visit volumes get lower per-visit rates. Request a quote to see the full tier table.
