Welltory · B2C · Apple Watch stress and energy app
Offer just a $99.99 yearly plan with no free trial, but let users close it

What they did
Onboarding paywall usually shows only the annual plan, $99.99/year displayed as $8.83/month; sometimes a monthly option. No free trial; the paywall can be closed ('hard-ish'). Little pricing testing because the company feels too small to offer more pricing options given churn.
