Ask HN: How can I make SaaS product more accessible to developing economies?

4 pointsby zkid18over 4 years ago
The question might be too broad, and definitely requires more information about about the product to provide an accurate answer. However I interesting generally in any sort of discriminative pricing initiatives in that area. The ethical part also confuse me a bit.

B2B apps developed in the west are unlikely to be useful for developing markets given the disparate priorities and market structure between developing and developed economies.<p>However, for B2C products (e. g: Figma, PhotoPea) you could charge a much lower price based on billing address, similar to how for example Spotify costs much less in the Philippines than in the UK.

Purchase parity pricing! <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;briansigafoos.com&#x2F;saas-pricing-using-ppp-rates&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;briansigafoos.com&#x2F;saas-pricing-using-ppp-rates&#x2F;</a>

By accessible you mean how can you sell more to them? I think the same aggressive marketing structure also applies. Put a lot of money, take a lot of money.

Make it open source. What is ethical about profiting from developing countries if your intention is to help?
