Transparent Pricing

Document Scanning & Storage Pricing
in South Africa

No hidden fees. No long-term lock-in. Paperop's pricing is project-based and tailored to your document volume and compliance requirements.

How Pricing Works

Why Paperop Uses Project-Based Pricing

Every document management project is different. A law firm digitising 20 years of litigation files has very different requirements to a property agency scanning current lease agreements. Publishing a fixed per-page rate would be misleading — the actual cost depends on document condition, indexing depth, metadata requirements, and urgency.

Document Scanning

Pricing is based on page volume, document condition (bound vs. loose, A4 vs. oversized), and required resolution. AI auto-indexing is included as standard.

Important Note: This is NOT standard pricing. This is a 50% off special for the first 10 clients. Thereafter, standard 100% pricing applies. This assumes pickup of approximately 6,000 documents from a destination within 50km. Prices are subject to change without prior notice due to fuel levy increases and other external factors.

What Drives the Cost?

  • Volume: Higher volumes reduce the per-unit cost significantly.
  • Document condition: Loose, clean A4 documents scan faster than bound, fragile, or oversized materials.
  • Indexing depth: Basic OCR is less expensive than full vertical-specific AI profiling with data field extraction.
  • Urgency: Standard lead times apply; expedited processing is available.
  • Compliance level: Standard audit trails vs. WORM immutable storage affects pricing.
