Pricing & Renewal Terms

Billing Options

  • Monthly — pay month-to-month with no commitment. Rate adjusts each renewal to reflect current MAU tier.
  • 6-Month Prepay — pay 6 months upfront. Your rate is locked for the full 6-month term regardless of MAU changes.
  • 1-Year Prepay — pay 12 months upfront. Your rate is locked for the full 12-month term regardless of MAU changes.

Prepay pricing is the monthly rate multiplied by the number of months — there is no volume discount. The incentive for prepaying is the price lock: your rate cannot increase mid-term, even if the platform crosses into a higher MAU tier.

MAU-Based Price Escalation

As PlateMastr grows, advertising rates increase to reflect the larger audience. Increases apply only to new subscriptions and renewals — active locked terms are unaffected.

Gold — Competitive Blocking

Gold sponsors appear as dashboard cards seen on every page load. There are 3 Gold slots available. Purchasing multiple Gold slots is not discounted — each slot is billed at full price — but doing so blocks competitors from appearing alongside your brand. A company holding all 3 Gold slots owns every dashboard card position with zero competitor visibility.
