It's sad their pricing model punishes you getting more users so harshly. It's quite expensive for only 1000 new users.

The pricing is based on the number of signups per month, so that's 1000 new users per month. Do you feel like that pricing wouldn't work for your situation?

Maybe it would be worth it for startups with a pricing model similar to yours where each signup provides large revenue, but for a startup that has a very low value per user and needs to have large growth it is not worth it.

Yeah, that's interesting. As you say, the pricing was based on looking at the numbers of signups per month for SaaS startups.

How to make that work for non SaaS startups, I'm not yet sure.

You would need a totally different pricing strategy, but whether that's a smart business move is up to you to decide.
