Let users skip the free trial for a lower price: $6.99 vs $9.99 a week
Unknownpaywallpricing
What they did
Multi-step paywall: screen 1 'We want you to try Rizz for free'; screen 2 'You will get a reminder two days before your trial ends'; screen 3 the offer with a trial toggle on by default ('7-day free trial, $9.99 per week'). Turning on 'Skip free trial' drops the price to $6.99/week (~30% off, matching a ~30% trial-to-paid rate). Suited to lower-intent apps and younger users with less buying power.
