No, the business goal is to lie, trick, cheat and steal, to fuck a potential customer over so they part with their money.

That the customer may not be satisfied afterwards doesn't matter - there are plenty of mitigation strategies, such as lock-in effects, playing off sunk cost fallacy, or drowning negative feedback on third-party sites with bought ratings, reviews and social media likes.

Seeing a site like this should light an immediate warning site in your head, telling you that you don't want to be on the business end of their business goals.
