per seat

For every occupant

Per seat describes pricing or licensing based on the number of individual users or workstations.

Common in software licensing, where a company pays for each employee who uses the program: The software costs $50 per seat annually.

Also appears in event pricing, transportation, and restaurant contexts where each occupied seat incurs a charge.
