optimization:
  - name: Annual Billing Discount
    description: Switching from monthly to annual billing on the Growth plan saves $50/month ($600/year). Annual Scale plan eliminates the 1% transaction fee for stores up to $1M GMV.
    savings: Up to $600/year on Growth; eliminates transaction fees on Scale for stores under $1M GMV
  - name: Plan Right-Sizing
    description: Evaluate whether full developer API and webhook access (Scale plan) is required, or if Growth plan coupon API access is sufficient for integration needs.
    recommendation: Start on Growth if coupon creation via API meets integration requirements; upgrade to Scale only when full REST API, webhooks, or multi-store tracking is needed
  - name: Transaction Fee Avoidance
    description: High-volume stores should compare the annual Scale plan ($479/month, 0% fees) against the monthly plan ($599/month + 1% of affiliate sales) to determine break-even point.
    recommendation: Annual plan is cost-effective when monthly affiliate-driven sales exceed $12,000
