Finding the Perfect Fit 🧩
Every business is different. A small corner shop does not have the same needs as a large wholesale distributor. This means they should not have to pay the same price for their software. You need a plan that fits your exact size and budget.
When you use eShop by Dapplesoft for your SMS inventory, you get to choose from four different plans. They are built to match different stages of business growth. Picking the right one can save you money and give you the exact features you need.
Let us break down the four options so you can make a smart choice for your shop.
The Four Stages of Growth �
Stage 1: Testing the Waters (Free Plan) If you have never used SMS accounting before, you might be skeptical. That is normal. The Free plan is made for you. You pay 0 BDT. You get to enjoy a free trial for 7 days. It even includes 100 Free SMS messages. You can add your items, test the commands, and see how fast it is without spending a single coin.
Stage 2: Just Starting Out (Minimum Plan) If you just opened your doors, money is tight. You need tools that are simple, affordable, and effective. The Minimum plan is the essentials for startups. For just 100 BDT, you get unlimited access for 10 days. It does not include free SMS, but it keeps your initial costs incredibly low while you get your business off the ground.
Stage 3: The Busy Shop (Popular Plan) Once your shop is running smoothly, you will be sending a lot of texts. You need a plan that can keep up. The Popular plan is the smart choice for success. It costs 500 BDT and lasts for 30 days. The best part? It includes 417 Free SMS messages. This is why it is the most popular plan. It covers the daily needs of a healthy, active retail store.
Stage 4: Thinking Long Term (Enterprise Plan) If your business is stable and you want to lock in your tools for the future, you need the Enterprise plan. This offers the best value for long-term growth. You pay 5000 BDT once, and you get unlimited access for 365 days. It also comes with a massive bank of 4166 Free SMS messages. You do not have to worry about renewing your software every month.

� FAQ Section
▶ Can I buy the Popular plan twice in one month? ↳ Yes. If you run out of your 417 Free SMS messages quickly, you can buy the plan again to top up your account.
▶ Do my unused Free SMS roll over to the next plan? ↳ This depends on the specific terms of the platform, but usually, you need to use your messages within the active days of your plan.
� My Thoughts
I always tell business owners to start small. Do not buy the Enterprise plan on day one. Use the Free trial. See if you actually like using text messages to track your stock. If you love it, move to the Popular plan. Software should earn your trust before it earns your money. The eShop pricing model allows you to do exactly that. 🧩
