Why We Adjust Our Prices?

🔹 Stronger support - a larger, faster team with shorter response times
🔹 Modern SaaS infrastructure 

How to Talk About a Price Increase?

Key Communication Rules

When discussing a price increase, the goal is to communicate with clarity, confidence and respect. These guidelines help you structure the conversation in a way that reinforces trust, explain the reasoning and highlights the long-term value clients receive. 

Start with appreciation

“Thank you for your trust and partnership. We are proud to support your HR and payroll operations.” 

Show long-term value

 “Our platform has developed strongly – today it offers full security, compliance, and automation that saves time and reduces errors.” 

Explain the reason clearly

"To maintain this level of quality and reliability, we are adjusting our pricing. This ensures we can keep developing and supporting your organization at the same high standard."

Use facts, not feelings

For example:

• Higher IT infrastructure and security costs 
• New EU regulations (NIS2, DORA, GDPR) 
• Higher operational and labor costs 
• Continuous product and service improvement 

Offer something back

“For our long-term clients, we provide preferred terms and a smooth migration plan, so the transition is comfortable and fair.”
