Is Kelviq worth the price?
This pricing model for Kelviq is fair for businesses with lower transaction volumes, as the initial 2.9% + 40¢ per transaction is competitive.
However, the increase to 3.5% + 40¢ after $5K in total volume makes it less attractive for growing businesses compared to platforms with more stable or decreasing rates at higher volumes. It's best for startups and small businesses just beginning to monetize their SaaS or AI products.
