How to order a subscription and a sensor

A step-by-step guide to buying from the Minut online store.

Written by Emilie Pain

Every Minut setup requires two things: a sensor (hardware) and a subscription plan. Both are purchased together from the Minut online store. This guide walks you through the full ordering process, from choosing your plan to completing checkout.

Are you an Airbnb host? Before ordering, visit the Airbnb host offer page to claim 3 months free on Standard or Pro — the offer is applied at the store and can't be added after purchase.

Before you start

You'll need a Minut account before you can complete your order. If you don't have one yet, you can create one for free at web.minut.com or during the checkout flow.

Having your account ready before ordering means your subscription activates immediately and is linked to the right account.

Credit card requirement. Your credit card must be issued in the same country as your country of residence. Cards issued abroad may be declined at checkout.

What are you ordering?

The store flow differs slightly depending on whether you're a new customer or an existing one adding more sensors.

New Customer

First sensor & subscription: You'll choose a plan, select your sensor quantity, and create or sign in to your account at checkout.

Subscription purchased on a Minut account can only be activated by that Minut account. Purchases of subscriptions have to be made by the Minut account that will activate them.

Existing customer

Adding sensors & subscriptions to an existing account

Sign in to the store first, then whether you want to add a subscription and/or a device.

For Minut account with multiple organisation members, we recommend the purchase to be done by the Minut account owner of that organisation - any subscription purchased under member/ admin accounts will not be connected to the organisation.

Adding subscription only to an existing account

If you already have the hardware and need the subscription, it is possible for you to purchase a subscription on the online store or directly through the app by creating a rental unit.

Step-by-step: placing your order

  1. Go to the Minut store

    Visit store.minut.com. If you already have a Minut account, sign in using the button in the top right corner — this ensures your order is linked to the correct account.

  2. Choose your Plan

    Select whether you want a Starter, Standard or Pro plan.

    Not sure which one to choose? Read our How to choose a Minut plan or go to our Plans & Pricing page for further information?

  3. Select your sensor and quantity

    Choose the M3 sensor. If you're monitoring multiple rooms or properties, select the number of sensors you need. Remember, you can have several sensors in one listing but please note that you need one subscription plan per listing. If you’re setting up the additional sensor in a different listing from the existing one you need to subscribe to a new plan.

  4. Add optional hardware

    If your installation requires permanent power or a cellular connection (useful for properties with unreliable Wi-Fi), you can add a wired mounting kit or cellular gateway to your order at this stage.

  5. Enter your shipping address

    Minut ships to the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, and a number of additional countries. Free shipping is available within the US, UK, and EU. For an up-to-date list of shipping destinations, check the store at checkout or the Shipping time and tracking information article.

  6. Complete Payment

    Enter your payment details. Your card must be issued in the same country as your shipping address. Once payment is confirmed, you'll receive an order confirmation by email. A second email with tracking information will follow once your order is dispatched from the warehouse.
