What is the primary purpose of a Van Westendorp willingness-to-pay survey? Ensuring users encounter meaningful value before they encounter meaningful limitations.
How does defaulting to annual pricing on a paywall typically impact the average Lifetime Value (LTV)? The team size exceeding the free limit or the organizational need for administrative features like SSO.
Concept: Decoy Tier Free-to-play with In-App Purchases (IAP).
How do 14-day trials typically compare to 7-day trials regarding user retention? Monthly, reviewing 50 or more sessions.
What are the six essential elements of a high-converting paywall? The core product value and retention issues, as monetization cannot fix a product users do not want to keep using.
Term: Hard Paywall $60$-$70\%$

Freemium Architecture: What is the risk of a free tier being 'too good'? A growth rate greater than $10\%$.
The 'Quality Gate' limit type converts users based on what motivation? The significantly higher retention (lower churn) of annual subscribers outweighs the per-month discount.
In a hybrid monetization model, what role does the subscription play relative to In-App Purchases (IAP)? The subscription acts as the predictable revenue floor, while IAP serves as the revenue ceiling for high-engagement users.
Which IAP category is commonly used in habit or learning apps to protect user progress? Streak insurance or 'safety nets' (e.g., Duolingo's streak freeze).
Formula: Lifetime Value (LTV) $LTV = \frac{ARPPU}{\text{Monthly Churn Rate}}$
What does a Lifetime Value to Customer Acquisition Cost (LTV:CAC) ratio of 3 indicate? The business model is economically sustainable.
Why is 'total downloads' considered a vanity metric in monetization? It does not account for conversion rates or retention; high downloads with low conversion yield little revenue.
What is the first priority in the 'Revenue Optimisation Sequence' when an app is underperforming? Checking and fixing the churn rate.
Which monetization model is essentially the only viable one for the economics of mobile gaming? Free-to-play with In-App Purchases (IAP).

What is the suggested monthly growth rate for MRR to be considered 'strong' for an app with less than $1M MRR? A growth rate greater than $10\%$.
Why is 'annual pricing at a discount' still higher in LTV than monthly pricing at full cost? The significantly higher retention (lower churn) of annual subscribers outweighs the per-month discount.
Which step in the 'Revenue Optimisation Sequence' involves adding multi-tier architecture or fixing annual conversion? Step three: Checking and improving ARPPU.
What is the role of 'Social Proof' on an app paywall? To reduce the user's perceived risk at the moment of payment by showing testimonials or subscriber counts.
