What it costs in a year
This is arithmetic on the listed monthly prices. The “25% off” row assumes the label applies to the monthly price, which is our reading, not a figure SamCart prints.
| Plan | Billed monthly, 12 months | With the 25% yearly label (our calculation) |
|---|---|---|
| SamCart Core | $948 | about $711 |
| SamCart Pro | $2,388 | about $1,791 |
| Plandalf | $588 | $490 billed yearly |
Plandalf is one plan at $49 a month or $490 a year, with a 14-day free trial and no percentage of your revenue. Payments are processed by Stripe or PayPal, which charge their own fees; Plandalf does not process payments.
The plan price as a share of your revenue
Plan prices are flat, so the cost matters most while revenue is small. This table divides each monthly plan price by monthly sales. The table excludes payment processing fees: SamPay fees with SamCart, and Stripe or PayPal fees with Plandalf.
| Monthly sales | SamCart Core ($79) | SamCart Pro ($199) | Plandalf ($49) |
|---|---|---|---|
| $2,000 | 3.95% | 9.95% | 2.45% |
| $5,000 | 1.58% | 3.98% | 0.98% |
| $10,000 | 0.79% | 1.99% | 0.49% |
If you need upsells and order bumps on SamCart, the Pro column is the one that applies. On Plandalf, order bumps and multi-page upsell flows are on the same single plan.
Which SamCart plan do you need?
| If you need | SamCart plan |
|---|---|
| A hosted checkout, pages and a courses app, no upsells | Core |
| One-click upsells and order bumps, A/B testing, an affiliate center | Pro |
| Several marketplaces or unlimited seats | Done for You |
When SamCart’s price is worth it
SamCart bundles a courses app, pages and a checkout into one account. If you use those, the plan price covers more than a checkout, and moving only the checkout would leave you rebuilding the rest. SamCart also lists A/B testing, an affiliate center and a subscription saver on Pro, which Plandalf does not claim to replace one for one.
If your site, course host and email already work and you mainly want a branded checkout with bumps, upsells and deadlines, the comparison changes. Plandalf does not host courses or build sales pages. It is the checkout and the steps around the sale, which Checkouts and Promos cover. For the feature-by-feature view and a migration plan, read Plandalf vs SamCart.
