Paddle drops $2M ARR threshold, targets scaling businesses
What happened
Between the Jun 8, 2026 and Jun 15, 2026 captures of Paddle's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Custom pricing tier description changed: removed explicit '$2M ARR' revenue threshold qualifier; now targets 'rapidly scaling and established large-scale businesses' with updated feature bullets including migration and advisory services. Pulse files it as a product change (positioning) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 5, 2026) lists Pay-as-you-go at $0.5 per Checkout transaction.
Paddle's previous recorded change was "Paddle Discontinues Price Intelligently Addon, Streamlining Product Offerings" (Q1 2025). Paddle has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window Podia, Shopify, Stripe and 2Checkout also changed their Finance & Accounting pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
