Frequently asked questions

How much do annual subscriptions typically save?
Most services offer 15–40% off when you pay annually. Some offer up to 50% during sales events like Black Friday.
Should I always choose annual billing?
Only if you're confident you'll use the service for the full year. Monthly gives you flexibility to cancel, annual locks you in but costs less.
What does the extra discount field do?
If you have a promo code or found a Black Friday deal, enter the % discount to see your actual cost after the discount is applied.
Does this work for any subscription?
Yes, Netflix, Spotify, SaaS tools, gym memberships, anything with monthly and annual pricing options.
