What's your opinion about custom email with one time payment?

Question

I'm planning to launch a SaaS where people can get their custom email (e.g. johndoe@startup.io) with One-Time Purchase and not a subscription. I'm looking for feedback from the market.

Features:
- Google standard service (e.g. gmail, drive, google meet, etc)
- Meeting video with a capacity of 100 participants
- 15GB storage

@devoresyah oh ok. I'm not sure how it would work, but I wish you good luck on your venture.

Tyrone Robb · Answer

@devoresyah would the one-time fee not be significantly higher than a monthly subscription upfront? Many lifetime deals make sense, but it's usually for proprietary tech.

In general, I don't see how it would work, which means 1 of 2 things, either I know nothing and I am wrong, or I do not understand it because you have not convinced me of the model or value proposition.

I'm not 100% sure what this means. Would I be buying the URL or the email services? Or what it would look like, is it a Google wrapper with free stuff or are you going to make your own versions?

@ty_robb because the problem I'm facing is usually when running a business with small funds. I would like to pay a one-time purchase rather than a subscription, in this case, I'm offering all benefits from google with one-time purchase only

Rully Ardiansyah · Answer

@ty_robb google wrapper without a subscription. So, basically user that purchased on my service will get some kind of google account with their custom email

Rully Ardiansyah · Answer

@ty_robb I'm still thinking about the price, right now I'm thinking only $20 for 1 account and 1 domain. Later gonna add some package like maybe 6 accounts with 2 domains,
