Simple Pricing Shouldn’t Be Impressive,
But Somehow, It Still Is
One of the things people comment on most when they discover Officaid isn’t a feature, a dashboard, or a workflow.
It’s the pricing.
SGD 30 per month for up to 5 people.
No setup fee.
No tiers.
No hidden costs.
For many, this comes as a pleasant surprise.
Why Does Simple Pricing Still Feel Unexpected?
Most startups and small teams have learned to expect complexity:
- pricing tiers that are hard to compare
- features locked behind higher plans
- onboarding or “activation” fees
- costs that grow faster than the team itself
Over time, this has made complexity feel normal, even inevitable.
So when pricing is clear, flat, and predictable, it stands out.
Designed for Startups, by Design
At Officaid, our pricing reflects how we think about startups.
Early-stage companies already have enough to manage: building products, hiring the right people, staying compliant, watching cash flow, and making decisions with limited time and resources.
Software should reduce that load, not add to it.
That’s why Officaid’s pricing is intentionally simple, so it fades into the background and lets teams focus on running their business.
Why No Tiers or Add-Ons?
Tiers tend to introduce friction:
- teams hesitate to use features because they’re unsure what’s included
- costs become something to manage instead of something to trust
- growth triggers new pricing conversations instead of momentum
We wanted to avoid that entirely.
One price.
One complete experience.
Clear expectations from day one.
Predictability Matters
For startups, predictability is a form of stability.
Knowing what your tools will cost today and tomorrow makes planning easier, conversations simpler, and decisions faster. You shouldn’t need a spreadsheet just to understand your software bill.
Simple pricing isn’t about being cheap. It’s about being honest.
Clear Pricing, Without Relying on Grants
In many markets, startups have access to government support, credits, and grants. These programs are valuable and often necessary.
However, they can also distort how software is priced and presented.
It is not uncommon to see tools advertised at very low prices, only to discover later that the model depends heavily on grant eligibility, special arrangements, or terms that are not immediately visible.
At Officaid, we chose a different path.
Our pricing stands on its own. It does not assume grant approval, special programs, or behind-the-scenes adjustments. Whether a business qualifies for incentives or not, the price remains the same.
This approach keeps expectations clear and conversations honest, especially for startups that want certainty rather than conditions.
Grants can help businesses grow. Pricing should not depend on them.
A Small Decision With a Clear Message
Our pricing sends a signal:
- we value clarity over cleverness
- we believe trust is built through transparency
- we want Officaid to feel supportive, not transactional
We didn’t set out to make pricing impressive. We set out to make it sensible.
And if that feels refreshing, it probably says more about the industry than it does about us.
