Fair enough. Sell in bulk but have some minimum credits per month requirement. More or less, use'em or lose'em. Not super painful, they are paying customers :)

Fair enough. Sell in bulk but have some minimum credits per month requirement. More or less, use'em or lose'em. Not super painful, they are paying customers :) But enough to keep it fair to the vendor. This way there's a path to paying for those who don't want or need a monthly unlimited subscription.
- dylan604 3y agoI really liked the suggestion from somewhere else on this topic of paying a set fee for an amount of credits to be charged against. When the balance gets low, allow them to re-up. Of course, there shouldn't be some BS type of expiration date like food products or airline miles. Pay as you go type of plans. In that way, you are paying for exactly what you use, and not just donating each month like it's a charity.
- chiefalchemist 3y agoIn this case expiring is not the same as airline miles. The product doesn't run itself. If you only want to use your credits on the odd numbers months and you expect it to be there and ready, well it still has to be there and maintained on the even numbered months. I guess you can bake that into the credits price. But if you say, purchased 100 credits today and don't use it for a year...well, who is paying for that year? Adding a small monthly fee, oddly enough, keeps the customer engaged. Airline miles are a perk.
