The best SaaS pricing pages [2023]

As a leading SaaS marketing agency, we spend a lot of time looking at SaaS pricing pages. 

We know how much strategy and planning goes into building SaaS pricing packages, and just as much thought goes into presenting them.

Selling virtual tools means that your online presence has to be spot-on. And when your marketing qualified leads (MQLs) make it to your SaaS pricing pages, ready to purchase, it's important to continue delivering an outstanding experience.

A major part of SaaS marketing is around communicating your solution's positioning and value through carefully planned messaging.

Still, when differentiating between SaaS pricing packages, it's hard to convey the differences in plans to users who haven't experienced your product fully. Let’s take a look at what makes an effective pricing page.

What should you include on your SaaS pricing page?

Before we get any further, let's understand what elements you should include in a SaaS pricing page. Evernote's pricing page includes the following:

1. Pricing tiers. This helps display different features and capabilities that come with each pricing option and clearly visualizes the 'Good, Better, Best' offerings clearly. Kalungi built a website theme designed for SaaS companies, and our pricing page includes tiers for your Hero, Decoy and Anchor. 
2. A strong headline. Communicate your value proposition and capture your audience's dreams. 
3. Meaningful naming. The names of your SaaS plan should help guide users to a decision, and reflect the 'job-to-be-done' of each of your pricing tiers.
4. Annual payments. Encourage upfront, annual payments rather than monthly payments for your SaaS products to improve ARR and reduce churn rates. Include a toggle for users to select which payment option works best for them. 
5. Freemiums. You should allow your users to sign up for no payment, and then upgrade when they're ready. This allows you to scale at your own pace and reduces funnel friction for hesitant buyers. 
6. FAQs. Give your audience resources to learn more. Including a FAQ section can help provide your prospects with support if they're stuck, and detail more complex elements of your pricing options. 
7. CTAs. You should always include CTAs to easily convert visitors into customers. Include CTAs in bright colors around your pricing tiers to direct prospects through the decision and purchase stages of the buyer's journey. You can also optimize your current CTAs to drive conversions with our CTA guide.
8. Features. Using a simple diagram or chart, make sure you include a breakdown of what each pricing package offers & how they vary. 
9. Provide currency conversion information. Chances are, some of your SaaS customers won't use the USD. Make sure to provide currency information available for buyers around the world. 
10. Cohesiveness. Your branding, page layout, and copy should all resonate with your audience's fears, dreams, and needs. 

Now that we know what to look for in an effective, high-converting SaaS pricing page, let's explore more in action. For more information on pricing best practices, check out our podcast on pricing and packaging.
