Finally, im glad I’m not alone. When we were building SuperCMMS, we already had a few companies ready to pay us. So we needed a billing system from the get go. While we use Stripe, we still had to wrangle a lot of stuff (like taxes), since we wanted to integrating other payment gateways in future. To save time we decided to have “only a single plan - all features included”.

Now comes the unexpected part. People kept asking us why we have only a single plan. Maybe all of us are so used to multiple pricing plans on saas products. So we had to explain ourselves in the pricing FAQ’s.

Are you Indian, perchance? How you write prices in India doesn't work in other places; this looks strange to someone who works in nearly any other currency.

Any of the following would look a lot less out of place:

$50 50 USD $50 USD 50.00 USD $50.00

Of these, I recommend the first one; dollars default to USD worldwide unless specified otherwise.


I think currency notation is more of a regional thing. Had we just mentioned "$", our Singapore customers might think its SGD (Singapore Dollars). We'd be better off using "USD $50.00". Thanks for the perspective.


It was clear to me. Are you in the US perchance? :)
