What happened

Between the Sep 28, 2026 and Oct 5, 2026 captures of Paddle's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Removed the disclaimer requiring contact/demo for custom pricing on products sold under $10 or needing invoicing; Custom pricing plan now explicitly advertises pricing for high-volume, low-value transactions instead of generic custom-pricing copy. Pulse files it as a product change (positioning) with a neutral direction. The current page lists Pay-as-you-go at $0.5 per Checkout transaction.

It lands 110 days after Paddle's previous change, "Paddle drops $2M ARR threshold, targets scaling businesses" (Jun 17, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Paddle Discontinues Price Intelligently Addon, Streamlining Product Offerings" (Q1 2025). Paddle has been tracked since 2023-11-14.

In the same window Stripe, Shopify and Podia also changed their Finance & Accounting pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
