How should we price embedded payroll? How should we price all our embedded finance products?

It’s a question we hear often from SaaS leaders.

As B2B SaaS platforms offer more and more embedded finance solutions, pricing for these additional products becomes both difficult and important. Embedded finance products integrate financial services into non-financial products or services, creating a seamless user experience. However, with the added complexity of financial services, pricing add-on products can be a challenging task. SaaS leaders need to consider not only existing pricing and packaging but also the cost of embedding financial services, compliance requirements, and the competitive landscape.

Effective pricing for embedded finance products can significantly alter the adoption of embedded finance solutions. With a clear understanding of the value their product provides, companies can set appropriate pricing that captures the full value of the offering while remaining competitive. This is particularly important in the highly competitive embedded finance market, where companies must differentiate themselves and demonstrate the value they bring to customers.

Accurately pricing add-on SaaS products can also help businesses avoid pricing-related challenges, which can negatively impact revenue and customer loyalty. It’s no surprise then that pricing and packaging questions come up early and often with Gusto Embedded’s partners.

The answer, at first, is ‘It depends.’
