Trial Duration Optimizasyonu
| Sure | Oran | En Iyi Icin |
|------|------|-------------|
| 3 gun | %18 | Aninda deger veren uygulamalar (oyun, foto editor) |
| 5 gun | %22 | Kisa aktivasyon sureli (productivity, weather) |
| 7 gun | %52 | Cogu uygulama icin STANDART (en yaygin) |
| 14 gun | %6 | Yavas aktivasyon (education, habit tracking) |
| 30 gun | %2 | Sadece music/streaming (uzun aliskanllik gereken) |
Kural: Kullanicinin "aha moment"ine ulasma suresinin 2 kati trial suresi olmali.
- Fitness app: "aha" = ilk antrenman tamamlama (1-2 gun) -> 7 gun trial
- Education app: "aha" = ilk modul bitirme (3-5 gun) -> 14 gun trial
- Game: "aha" = ilk level gecme (dakikalar) -> 3 gun trial
Paywall Placement Mapping
| Placement | Aciklama | En Iyi Icin | Conversion Etkisi |
|-----------|----------|-------------|-------------------|
| Onboarding | Kayit/intro sonrasi hemen | Yuksek niyet uygulamalar (finance, business) | En yuksek (kullanici kararsizken) |
| Feature-gate | Premium feature'a tiklandiginda | Cogu uygulama | Orta-yuksek (deger gorulmus) |
| Usage-limit | N kez kullanim sonrasi | AI tools, metered uygulamalar | Yuksek (aliskanllik olusmus) |
| Session-count | X oturum sonrasi | Games, education | Orta (engagement kanitlanmis) |
| Time-delay | N gun sonra | Utility, lifestyle | Orta-dusuk (aktivasyon gerektirmez) |
| Event-triggered | Belirli basari/event sonrasi | Fitness (ilk antrenman), education (ilk quiz) | Yuksek (momentum aninda) |
Multi-placement stratejisi: Tek paywall degil, birden fazla tetikleyici kullan:
- Onboarding'de soft goster (skip'lenebilir)
- Feature-gate'te tekrar goster (deger gorulmus)
- 3. oturumda hatirlatma (engagement kanitlanmis)
Pricing Psychology
Anchoring (Cipalama)
- ONCE en pahali plani goster, sonra ucuzunu
- Annual plani VURGULA: "Monthly $9.99/mo vs Annual $4.99/mo (Save 50%)"
- Orta plan "Most Popular" badge'i al (decoy effect)
Charm Pricing
- $9.99 > $10.00 (sol rakam etkisi)
- $49.99/yil > $50/yil
- $X.99 her zaman kullan, tam rakam KULLANMA
Per-Day Framing
- "$49.99/yil" yerine "Gunluk sadece 14 sent"
- "$9.99/ay" yerine "Gunluk sadece 33 sent"
- Kahve karsilastirmasi: "Bir kahveden ucuz"
Decoy Effect (Yem Etkisi)
3 plan sun:
Basic: $4.99/ay (sinirli)
Pro: $9.99/ay (en populer - HEDEF)
Premium: $14.99/ay (hersey)
Basic, Pro'yu ucuz gostermek icin var (decoy).
Savings Highlight
- "Save 60%" yesil badge ile vurgula
- Annual vs monthly karsilastirmayi ACIKCA goster
- Strikethrough pricing: ~~$119.88~~ $49.99/year
Regional Pricing (PPP - Purchasing Power Parity)
| Bolge | ABD Fiyatinin %'si | Ornek ($9.99 ABD) |
|-------|-------------------|-------------------|
| ABD/Kanada/Avustralya | %100 | $9.99 |
| Bati Avrupa (UK, DE, FR) | %90-100 | $8.99-9.99 |
| Dogu Avrupa (PL, CZ, RO) | %50-60 | $4.99-5.99 |
