description: FOCUS-aligned FinOps view of Mews. Two commercial surfaces — (1) Hospitality SaaS subscription
  metered per-property/per-room/per-module, and (2) Mews Payments processing fees metered per transaction.
  The Mews Open API itself is included with the SaaS subscription (no per-call fee), so FinOps tracking
  centers on subscription seats and payment volume rather than API consumption.

notes:
  - Mews does not publish per-property pricing; FinOps consumers should reconcile against their executed
    Mews Order Form or quote.
  - Mews Payments fees are interchange-plus; downstream FinOps allocation should split scheme fees, Mews
    markup, and chargeback adjustments where the Mews statement provides them.
  - API consumption is not metered; partners and customers do not see API-call line items on the Mews
    invoice. Cost attribution for Open API integrations should be done internally by the integrator.
