Indie Dev Discussion 🎙️ Which plan converts better for you? 🤔 Weekly, Monthly, Yearly, Lifetime?
@ios_dev_alb I recently had the same question about the product I am building. I did a market validation focused on the willingness of people to pay and the best tiers. I used ChatGPT Agent and also CC. They checked on Reddit and several other sources and I got some (hopefully) good inputs
@ios_dev_alb Most of my revenue comes from annual and lifetime plans, but none of my projects have fully taken off yet — I just can’t reach enough people. Still, I’m working on it every single day.
@ios_dev_alb Lifetime performs the best. I think people still don’t like subscriptions in general.
@ios_dev_alb Yearly with a 3 Days Free Trail
@ios_dev_alb Free trail without credit card. But within the database like When our free trail time will fetch in the database. So users will taste the premium and trust us.......
@ios_dev_alb I’ve never tried using any subscriptions since I genuinely hate subscriptions myself. However, if I did and my users were like me, a reasonably priced lifetime purchase would be the only option, always.
@ios_dev_alb Real talk I only sub weekly if it’s an app I need a couple times then plan to never use again. Monthly + a slightly discounted yearly rate is what I would personally consider a proper pricing model. Lifetime to me always has that stink of “the app could die tomorrow”
