If you have 1 million users paying $15 a month in the subscription model then you're making $15 million (minus taxes, processing fees, etc - spherical cow, no wind resistance for the rest of these examples). How would you even begin to know what to price a per-vice price across the board to match that with 1 million users? One of the things I've noticed around here is that there are a lot of new automated car washes popping up. They have two ways you can pay - per wash and monthly subscription. The car wash always prefers that you pay a monthly subscription That keeps their income steady, means they don't have to send home workers by the middle of the day if there's not enough work for them, and on days when it's raining they're not losing money by staying open.
