starti.app is a paid subscription solution, and costs from EUR 535 per month. The monthly subscription goes towards maintenance and operation of the app. Besides the monthly subscription we have a required one-time onboarding fee, which covers the development of the app.

The final price of your starti.app subscription depends on which features you choose for your app.

When you get an app based on starti.app technology, there are two types of fees you need to know about:

Setup Fee

This fee covers the costs associated with setting up your new app. We handle the connection to the starti.app platform, and there are expenses involved in ensuring proper integration between starti.app and your website. In addition, we guide you through the entire onboarding process to make sure you get off to a good start with your app.

The setup fee is due when you receive the development version of your app. The development version is not the final version; it's the version you can test and make changes to before we publish the live app. The live app is called the Production App, and it’s the version that will be available on the App Store and Google Play Store.

Payment of the setup fee activates your subscription.

Subscription Fee

After you have received the development version of your app, you will start paying a recurring subscription fee for us to maintain your app. You can choose to pay monthly, semi-annually, or annually, and you will receive an invoice based on your chosen payment interval. There is a 14-day payment deadline for the invoice.

Maintaining your app means we ensure it stays updated with the latest requirements and updates from Apple and Google. This includes security updates, technological improvements, and system changes.

The first subscription fee is paid together with the setup fee. Depending on whether you chose monthly, semi-annual, or annual billing, your first invoice will include:

• Monthly: First month + setup fee
• Semi-Annual: First six months + setup fee
• Annual: First year + setup fee

There are 3 different types of updates when it comes to your app:

1. Content in the app
   Since your app is based on your web system, the app is automatically updated every time you update your web system. There is no extra cost when the content in your app is automatically updated.
2. Updates required by Apple and Google
   When you have an app available in the App Store and Google Play, the app must meet certain requirements that Apple and Google regularly introduce. These often relate to security, technology, and updates in their systems — all things you cannot control.

We refer to this as technical maintenance, and we handle this for you. Technical maintenance is included in your subscription, so it doesn’t cost you extra when the app needs to be updated due to requirements from Apple and Google.

3. New features
   If you want to add new features to your app, some adjustments may be needed to ensure everything works smoothly. In most cases, your web developer (the person managing your website) can handle these updates.

Please note that some features can be purchased as add-ons to your current subscription, while others may require you to upgrade to a larger package.

If you need our assistance to add new features to your app, you can purchase support hours directly from us, and we’ll help you with the development.

Each of our subscription packages includes a number of free push notifications. This number is per month and resets at the end of each month. It is not possible to transfer unused push notifications from one month to the next.

If you need to send more push notifications, you can purchase an extra package on a monthly basis. Please note that it is only possible to buy additional push notifications if you are on our Standard or Premium plan.

The number of sent push notifications is calculated based on the number of unique push notifications multiplied by the number of recipients for each notification. So if you send the same push notification to 200 recipients, it counts as 200 push notifications.

You can always see how many push notifications you have sent in the current month by logging into your Manager account. You can also purchase additional push notifications there. Log in to your starti.app Manager account here:https://manager.starti.app/login

With , you have two different options when publishing your app to the App Store and Google Play:

1. Let starti.app be the publisher
   If you let starti.app act as the publisher of your app, it will be listed under our publishing account in both the App Store and Google Play. In this case, starti.app covers the costs associated with having the app published in the stores.
2. You act as the publisher of your app
   If you prefer to be listed as the publisher yourself, you’ll need to create your own accounts for the App Store and Google Play. The following costs are associated with this:

• A one-time payment of $25 to Google
• An annual payment of $99 to Apple

Note: The prices above are taken directly from Google and Apple, and we disclaim any responsibility for potential errors.

No.

starti.app is built on a cross-platform technology, meaning you get an app that works for both iOS and Android at the same time.

Your app will need to be published in both Apple's App Store and Google’s Play Store, but don’t worry – we’ll assist you with both the setup and maintenance of that process. And this is already included in your subscription, so there’s no extra cost.

To help you get started with an app, we offer startups a 50% discount for the first year. After that, the subscription will switch to the full price.

To qualify as a “startup,” you must have a CVR number that is less than 3 years old at the time of starting the subscription.

In our startup package, you can choose between all three subscription plans (Basic, Standard, and Premium) at 50% off.
However, you are only eligible for our startup package once we have approved you. You must contact us to learn more and to be approved for the startup package.
