costOptimization:
  - recommendation: Use annual billing to save approximately 17% on Launch (from $89 to $74/month) and 17% on Scale (from $179 to $149/month).
  - recommendation: Monitor monthly click and conversion usage against plan limits to avoid being forced into a higher tier earlier than necessary.
  - recommendation: Evaluate whether the Launch plan (50 affiliates, 500 conversions) is sufficient before committing to Scale, as the price difference is $90/month ($1,080/year).
  - recommendation: Enterprise plan removes percentage-based overage risk; if clicks or conversions frequently approach Scale limits, model the break-even point against Enterprise custom pricing.
notes:
  - Tapfiliate charges no percentage of sales — all plans are flat monthly subscriptions.
  - No per-API-call billing; costs are driven entirely by subscription tier and plan limits.
  - Free trials available: 7 days (Launch), 14 days (Scale), 30 days (Enterprise).
