I think this is the wrong move. This is a move you make when you already have a free tier for people who are just trying the app to see it if fits their needs. You don't go full paid on an already niche product.
Hope I am proven wrong, but feels like the end for zaprite before they even started.
While being niche, I don't think their service was overly popular. I never heard anyone mention them besides myself in the last two years since they launched. I think this is probably an attempt to generate revenue on a service that absolutely should be making money. It's probably one of these scenarios where if a product is free, people won't use it, because it has no value, but if they're charging for it, then it must be good. They're probably just trying a new business model. It's tough out there when most expect things for free today. That said, I hope they have a free trial for potential customers.
Best of luck to them, they’ll need it.
Good try, only keep trying to find the right direction.
Is that even necessary ?
It seems like a desperate move to me. These tools are rarely used by people who have a constant flow of business. By the very definition of having work you’re not using the tool. The incentives do not align. It’s like charging job seekers to find a job.
What they should do is charge a small fee on invoices and scale revenue with those fees - not a flat monthly rate.
I hope not. It's the best invoice solution for my Fiat mine. I need to give my customers the option of paying Bitcoin. But the reality is I need a hybrid solution where they can pay card or ACH. And I'm almost 100% B2B so in any case they need complaint invoices for their own bookkeeping.
