Similar to how cloud providers figured multiple usage plans. I have a feeling that many apps live off people paying but using service really low, so there is no incentive. What's stopping them to offer a different price for 1h - 5h monthly access? They could upgrade to a flat fee automatically if you start using their app every day.
