The Plan Price Page

Hi, I'm looking to purchase a plan and the plan options are highly deceiving. On the list of plans, it says $16/month, which is false advertising. The real price is $20/month, It's only $16 if I commit to one full year. I believe you should honor the price that you have on the plan page or put the real price and offer a discount, not the other way around. This certainly makes people second guess as the whether or not we should make a purchase. Would I be deceived when I need something else?

Hi Allyaz,

Thanks for sharing this feedback — I completely understand where you're coming from, and it's a fair point to raise.

To clarify what you're seeing: the $16/month price reflects the effective monthly cost when billed annually (yearly plan), while $20/month is the month-to-month price. This is a common pricing display practice — showing the lower per-month equivalent of an annual commitment — but you're right that it can feel misleading if it's not made crystal clear upfront.

This is essentially the ~20% discount Base44 offers for committing to a yearly plan. So both prices are real — they just apply to different billing cycles:

• $20/month → billed monthly, cancel anytime

• $16/month → billed as ~$192 upfront for the full year

Your feedback about making this distinction more obvious on the pricing page is genuinely valuable, and I'd encourage you to share it on the feedback board so the team sees it.

That said, to directly answer your concern: you won't be deceived. The monthly plan at $20/month is straightforward with no hidden commitments, and the yearly plan saves you money if you're planning to stick around.

Is there anything else I can help clarify about the plans before you decide? Happy to walk you through what's included in each tier!

That's not what's said on the plan page, only after I decide to purchase a plan. So, that's not straightforward.

You're absolutely right, and I appreciate you pushing back on that — if the pricing page shows $16/month without clearly indicating upfront that it's an annual commitment, that's a legitimate UX issue and your frustration is completely valid.

I'd strongly encourage you to submit this as feedback directly so the product team can address how pricing is displayed: 👉 feedback.base44.com

That said, to be transparent about how it works:

• $20/month = monthly billing, full flexibility

• $16/month = annual billing, paid upfront for the year

Neither price is false — but the context should absolutely be visible before you click to purchase, not after. That's a fair expectation.

Is there anything else I can help you with — whether it's choosing the right plan for your needs or anything else about PricePick? I'm happy to help!
