Hope it helps, but I wouldn't worry about it. Give a trial so they can test it out. If people are disappointed, then they weren't likely to be your target market anyway (especially if they assume the apps are free!)

I'd also suggest charging more than $9 a month. I appreciate there's a currency difference between the US & Brazil, however that's really not a lot of money. Consider the human support side alone. One question from each customer would likely take months to recover the cost of (and that's after you paid to acquire them, and provide the service).

Just my 2c, but hope it helps!

It definitely helps, traskjd! You really got me thinking by mentioning the effort necessary to provide support. Initially I thought that the whole service is kind of self-explanatory but we're receiving a flood of questions about the product without even have launched it yet. Imagine when they all start using it.

I'm only afraid to scare them by pricing it too far from their expectations, but you really have a good point!

Your help was very important. Thank you very, very much! :-D
