Show only the yearly plan first; tuck monthly behind a 'view all plans' button
Yearly plan uptake up ~15-20 points; one of three tests behind a 60% ARPU lift
Workedpaywallpricing
What they did
Originally the first paywall screen showed yearly and monthly plans side by side. The test moved the monthly plan under a 'view all plans' button so it wasn't visible at first glance, leaving the yearly plan as the default.
What happened
Yearly plan adoption rose about 15-20 percentage points, increasing new revenue.
In their words
