Enterprise QR Code Pricing Scam
Don't fall for enterprise QR code pricing scams. Learn about hidden costs and discover QRTRAC's transparent, fair pricing for all business sizes.
Enterprise Pricing Is Often a Scam
Many QR code providers use "enterprise pricing" as an excuse to charge exorbitant fees for basic features that should be available to all businesses.
Common Enterprise Pricing Scams
1. Hidden Setup and Implementation Fees
Many providers advertise low monthly rates but hide expensive setup fees, implementation costs, and onboarding charges that can cost thousands.
Hidden enterprise costs:
• Monthly: $99
• Setup: $2,500 (Hidden!)
• Implementation: $1,500 (Hidden!)
• Onboarding: $800 (Hidden!)
• Total: $4,800 first year
Why This Hurts You:
- • Unexpected budget overruns
- • Difficulty getting approval
- • Vendor lock-in after investment
- • Reduced ROI
2. Artificial Feature Restrictions
Providers artificially restrict basic features to enterprise plans, forcing businesses to pay premium prices for functionality they need.
Artificial restrictions:
• Basic: QR generation only
• Pro: Analytics (limited)
• Enterprise: Full analytics
• Custom: Custom domains
Why restrict basic features?
What You're Missing:
- • Essential features locked behind paywalls
- • Forced to upgrade for basic needs
- • Reduced functionality on lower plans
- • Artificial scarcity tactics
3. Usage-Based Pricing Traps
Many enterprise plans use usage-based pricing that can quickly become expensive, with hidden costs that scale unpredictably.
Usage-based pricing trap:
• Base: $200/month
• Scans: $0.01 each
• Analytics: $0.05 per view
• Storage: $0.10 per GB
• Total: Unpredictable!
Why This Happens:
- • Unpredictable monthly costs
- • Difficulty budgeting
- • Fear of overage charges
- • Reduced usage to control costs
4. Long-Term Contract Traps
Many enterprise plans require long-term contracts with high cancellation fees, making it difficult to switch providers or adjust usage.
Contract trap:
• Term: 3 years minimum
• Cancellation: $5,000 fee
• Modification: $1,000 fee
• Renewal: Automatic
Trapped for years
What You're Missing:
- • Flexibility to change plans
- • Ability to switch providers
- • Freedom to adjust usage
- • No vendor lock-in
5. "Custom" Pricing That's Just Expensive
Many providers offer "custom enterprise pricing" that's just a way to charge more for the same features available to other customers.
"Custom" pricing scam:
• Standard: $99/month
• Enterprise: $500/month
• Features: Same as standard
• Support: Same as standard
Just 5x more expensive!
Why This Hurts You:
- • Paying premium for basic features
- • No additional value
- • Reduced budget for other needs
- • Unfair pricing structure
