Pricing Page Content Checklist Template

Pricing Page Checklist (fill-in)

When to use: One row per buyer question: the answer on the page, its source of truth, where it shows, owner, status and a completion check.

Pricing page content checklist

One row per buyer question. Each answer must come from a named source of truth, not from memory or an old slide.

Per-row detail (fill for every row)

• Exact wording on the page: [copy the sentence buyers will read]
• Source link or screen: [billing config export, terms URL, refund policy URL]
• Last checked: [date] by [name]
• Does checkout show the same thing? [Yes / No, with what differs]
• Sales or support question it answers: [real question from a ticket or call]

Next action

• Owner: [marketing or product owner] - action: [fix the first row marked Fix or Missing] by [date]
• Reviewer: [billing or finance lead] - action: confirm every price, quota and overage matches the billing system
• Reviewer: [legal or ops] - action: confirm the trial, renewal, cancellation and refund wording matches the terms

Completion check

• Every row has an answer on the page and a named source of truth.
• Prices, quotas and overages match checkout for every plan.
• The page says whether prices include tax.
• Cancellation and refund rules are on the page or one click away.
• At least two buyer scenarios show a yearly total a buyer can check.
• Every row has a last checked date from this quarter.

Billing Source and Plan Facts Sheet

When to use: Pull plan names, billing units, prices, quotas and add-ons from the billing system before anyone writes copy.

Collect plan facts before you write copy

Most pricing page errors start when copy is written from memory. Pull every fact from the system that bills the customer first.

Rules

• Use the plan names your billing system uses. Invoices that show a different name create support tickets.
• Write down the billing unit in plain words. "Per active user per month" beats "per seat".
• If a price differs by country or currency, list each one and where it is set.
• Keep the export or screenshot with the date. It is your evidence when someone asks why the page changed.

Comparing your page with a real one helps. Open a live example such as the seotools.pro pricing page and note which buyer questions it answers on the page and which it leaves to the FAQ.

Quotas, Overages and Taxes Check

When to use: Answer what is counted, what happens at the limit, how overage is billed and whether prices include tax.

Quotas, overages and taxes check

These three rows cause the most surprise bills. Answer each one for every plan, in the words a buyer would use.

Quotas and limits

• What is counted: [seats, contacts, responses, API calls, storage]
• Counting period: [per calendar month / per billing cycle / lifetime]
• Does unused quota roll over? [Yes / No]
• Where buyers see their usage: [in-app usage page]

Overages

Taxes

• Say whether shown prices include or exclude tax: [excluded, added at checkout]
• Say who it may apply to: [buyers in regions where we collect sales tax or VAT]
• Say what business buyers can do: [add a tax ID at checkout]
• Ask finance to confirm this wording. Do not guess tax rules.

Total Cost Scenario Builder

When to use: Show yearly totals for real buyer types, including seats, add-ons and overage, so buyers can check the math.

Total cost scenario builder

A buyer does not pay a plan price. They pay plan, extras, overage and tax over a year. Show that math for real buyer types.

How to pick scenarios

1. Take your two or three most common customer sizes from billing data.
2. Add one scenario that sits just over a quota, because that is where buyers get surprised.
3. Write each total before tax and say so next to the number.
4. Recalculate every scenario when a price, quota or overage rate changes.

Where to show it

• A short "What a typical team pays" block under the plan cards.
• Or a calculator that uses the same numbers as billing.
• Link sales decks and quotes to the same scenarios so numbers match.

Trials, Renewals and Cancellation Section

When to use: Write the trial, renewal, cancellation, refund and data answers buyers check before they enter a card.

Trials, renewals and cancellation section

Buyers check this part before they enter a card. Put the answers on the page or one click away, and match your terms word for word.

Check the rules that apply to you

• Auto-renewal and cancellation rules differ by country and US state. Have counsel review this section.
• In the US, the FTC's 2024 click-to-cancel rule was vacated by a federal appeals court in 2025.
• In March 2026 the FTC asked for public comment on a new negative option rulemaking. No new rule text is final.
• The FTC still brings cases under existing law, including ROSCA. Clear terms and an easy way to cancel are the safe default.

Turn the finished section into a writer brief with the Content Brief tool so the FAQ copy matches these answers.

Spreadsheet Header (CSV)

When to use: A paste-ready header row and allowed values to run the checklist in Google Sheets or Excel.

Paste-ready spreadsheet header

Paste this row into cell A1 of Google Sheets or Excel, then split text to columns by comma.

row_id,buyer_question,answer_on_page,source_of_truth,source_link,where_shown,matches_checkout,plan,owner,reviewer,status,last_checked,next_review

Allowed values

• buyer_question: billing, quotas, overages, taxes, billing-cycle, trial, cancellation, refunds, total-cost, data
• where_shown: plan-card, comparison-table, footnote, faq, calculator, terms-link
• matches_checkout: yes, no, not-checked
• status: done, fix, missing, blocked

Sheet tips

• Add data validation dropdowns on buyer_question, where_shown, matches_checkout and status.
• Highlight any row where matches_checkout is no or not-checked.
• Highlight last_checked dates older than your review cycle.
• Add one row per plan for quotas and overages, so nothing hides in an "all plans" row.

Worked Example (fictional form builder)

When to use: A filled-in checklist for an invented form builder, with buyer scenarios and one overage rounding fix.

Worked example: Vexmoor form builder

Fictional example. Vexmoor, its plans, prices, URLs and findings are invented to show a filled-in checklist. Prices are made up and exclude tax.

Vexmoor sells an online form builder. Starter is $19 a month or $190 a year, with 1,000 responses a month. Growth is $49 a month or $490 a year, with 10,000 responses and 3 seats.

Buyer scenarios (before tax)

• Solo consultant, 600 responses a month, Starter: $228 a year on monthly billing or $190 on annual.
• Agency, 4 seats, 12,500 responses a month, Growth monthly: $49 + $15 overage + $8 seat = $72 a month, $864 a year.
• Same agency on Growth annual: $490 + 12 x ($15 + $8) = $766 a year, with overage and seats billed monthly.

What the checklist found

• The page said "$5 per 1,000 extra responses". Billing rounds up each started block, so 2,500 extra responses cost $15, not $12.50. The footnote now says "per started block".
• Extra seats on Growth were sold at checkout but not shown on the page. A row was added to the comparison table.
• The page did not say prices exclude tax. One line now sits under the prices.

Why this works

• Every answer traces to billing config or the terms, so the page and checkout agree.
• The agency scenario sits over a quota, which is where the rounding error showed up.

If you add Product or Offer markup, Google says structured data must match what the page shows. Build it with the Schema Markup Generator after the copy is final.
