Frequently asked questions

Why use PulsePoints instead of a standard order?PulsePoints remove commercial friction for small, clearly defined tasks. Anything over two days routes through our standard delivery process.
Is there a fixed catalogue of services?No. Each request is assessed individually at triage, giving you flexibility while ensuring fairness.
Is there a maximum request size?Yes — 6,000 points (~two days). Anything larger is handled as a separately scoped engagement.
Is there a minimum charge?Yes — 400 points minimum per request, regardless of task size.
Who decides how many points a request needs?Our Support or Customer Success team assesses at triage and confirms points with you before work begins.
What if we need more points than our tier provides?You can upgrade to the next tier at any time. The fee difference is charged pro-rata for the remaining term.
How can I check my remaining balance?Your Points Guardian can request a current balance statement from your CSM at any time.
Can I bundle multiple requests?No. Each request must relate to one clearly defined outcome.
When are points deducted?Upon acceptance of agreed scope — reflecting reservation of Bellrock resource. Points cannot be recredited once accepted.
Do unused points roll over or accumulate?No. Unused points expire at the end of each quarter and never build up. Spread requests evenly to avoid last-minute pressure.
How do quarters work, and what if I start mid-quarter?Points are awarded and consumed in line with calendar quarters (Jan–Mar, Apr–Jun, Jul–Sep, Oct–Dec). If you subscribe part-way through a quarter, both your points and your cost for that first quarter are pro-rated.
How does the term work?A minimum term is agreed at point of sale. Thereafter the subscription continues on a rolling basis per your software agreement.
Subscription terms

PulsePoints subscription terms

These terms apply specifically to PulsePoints and should be read alongside Bellrock's master services agreement, Helpdesk Support Charter, and any applicable order form.

1.Subscription & Term

PulsePoints subscriptions have a minimum term as stated in the relevant order form. Where a subscription commences part-way through a calendar quarter, that partial quarter is invoiced on a pro-rata basis. Following the minimum term, the subscription may be extended by mutual agreement. Early termination prior to the minimum term end is not permitted without Bellrock's written consent.

1A.Early Termination

The subscription may not be terminated early except where expressly agreed in writing by both parties. Any such agreement will be set out in a separate written addendum to the order form.

2.Billing & Payment

The annual fee is invoiced in full at commencement and payable within 30 days. All fees are exclusive of VAT. Bellrock reserves the right to suspend delivery where payment is overdue by more than 30 days.

3.Point Allocations

The annual point allocation is divided equally across four calendar quarters. Points are credited at the start of each quarter. Points are not cumulative — any unused points at the end of a quarter expire and cannot be carried forward, transferred, or redeemed for cash or credit. Points have no cash value and are non-refundable.

4.Bring-Forward Facility

Customers may bring forward up to 25% of the following quarter's allocation into the current quarter, subject to written CSM approval. This facility is available once per subscription year.

5.Points Guardians

Customers must nominate one or more named Points Guardians — the sole authorised persons to raise requests on behalf of their organisation. Requests from non-guardians will not be accepted. Guardians may be added or changed by contacting your CSM in writing.

6.Request Eligibility & Scope

Each request must relate to a single clearly defined outcome. Minimum charge: 400 points. Maximum: 6,000 points (~two days). Requests beyond this are handled as separately scoped engagements.

7.Point Deduction

Points are deducted upon acceptance of the agreed scope. This reflects the reservation of Bellrock resource to the agreed work; once accepted, points cannot be recredited.

8.Change of Scope

If scope changes materially after acceptance, the original request must be voided and a new request raised. Points from the original request will not be recredited, nor transferred to the new request — they are consumed in full.

9.Delivery & Lead Times

All requests require a minimum of 10 business days' notice. Bellrock will use reasonable endeavours to deliver within the agreed timeframe. Requests with insufficient notice may be scheduled in the following quarter.

10.Point Valuation & Pricing

Points do not have a fixed published monetary value. The number of points attributed to a request is determined by Bellrock at triage. During the minimum term, the subscription price and any agreed discount are fixed. Any tier upgrade during the minimum term will have the same agreed discount applied at the current day rate. Following the minimum term, pricing is at Bellrock's prevailing standard day rate at the time, with the agreed discount applied to that rate for the full remaining duration of the contract.

11.Transferability

PulsePoints subscriptions and point balances are non-transferable. Points may not be used on behalf of any third party or affiliated organisation not named in the subscription agreement.

12.Tier Changes & Upgrades

Tier upgrades are permitted at any time during the subscription term. Upgrades at the annual anniversary take effect from the start of the new contract year. Mid-term upgrades are charged on a pro-rata basis for the remainder of the year, with the quarterly point allocation updated accordingly. The customer's agreed discount is applied to the gross list price of the new tier, regardless of the standard published discount for that tier. All tier changes must be agreed in writing with your CSM.

13.Data Handling

Where a request involves processing of customer data, such processing is carried out in accordance with the data processing agreement under the customer's existing Bellrock software agreement.

14.Force Majeure

Bellrock shall not be liable for any delay or failure arising from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, pandemic, industrial action, or third-party system failures.

In the event of any conflict between these terms and Bellrock's master services agreement, these terms shall take precedence in relation to PulsePoints. These terms are subject to change at annual renewal. All prices excl. VAT.
