* '''Monthly:''' CHF 1.00 per month | * '''Monthly:''' CHF 1.00 per month | ||
* '''Annual:''' CHF 10.00 per year | * '''Annual:''' CHF 10.00 per year. Written in black and white: the annual rate covers 12 months at a reduced price. Paying a year in advance costs CHF 10 instead of the CHF 12 that 12 monthly payments of CHF 1 would total, a discount of CHF 2 (about 17%) for early annual payment. In practice, many scenarios could coexist: some users would cancel or suspend their subscription, some would add donations on top, some would obtain months of subscription in exchange for Karma tokens earned through contributions, and advantages for contributions are being considered. On average, the working assumption is therefore CHF 10 per user per year. New users would be encouraged from the start to take the annual subscription; the monthly option at CHF 1 is intended for cautious people who prefer to start small. | ||

These figures use the average working assumption of CHF 10 per user per year. They are an illustration of how revenue would scale with adoption, not a promise and not a commitment. | |||
