Stop Paying the "SKU Tax": Why Your Inventory Size Shouldn't Dictate Your App Costs
Most Shopify apps penalize you for growing your catalog. At Revnous, we’ve flipped the script. We offer Unlimited Product Updates on every single plan—including the free one.
Is your Shopify app bill growing faster than your actual sales?
If you manage a high-volume store—whether you’re a dropshipper with 50,000 variants, an auto parts dealer with massive catalogs, or a fashion retailer dropping new collections weekly—you know the pain.
You go to install a simple utility tool, like a Bulk Price Editor, to run a weekend sale. You look at the pricing page and hit a wall:
“Free plan limited to 500 products.” “Standard plan limited to 5,000 products.”
Suddenly, because you have a successful, growing inventory, you are being forced onto an expensive "Enterprise" or "High Volume" plan just to access basic functionality. Even if you only need to change prices on 50 items, you have to pay for the 50,000 you have sitting in your database.
We call this the "SKU Tax."
It punishes growth. It doesn’t make sense. And at Revnous, we decided to get rid of it. The Problem with the Old Model.
Historically, many SaaS (Software as a Service) apps charged based on data storage. If you had more items in your database, it cost them more to host you.
But technology has advanced. Today, the cost of storing data is negligible compared to the value of the utility the software provides.
When apps charge you based on your product count, they aren't charging you for value; they are charging you for potential. It’s like a gym charging you a membership fee based on how many pairs of workout clothes you own, rather than how often you actually come in to exercise.
The Revnous Difference: We Don't Limit Your Products
We believe that having a large inventory is a sign of success, something to celebrate—not something to penalize.
That is why Revnous Bulk Price Editor & Scheduler operates on a radically different model than our competitors.
We do NOT limit the number of products you can edit.
- Have 100 products? Great.
- Have 50,000 products? Also great.
- Have 500,000 products? No problem.
You can update all of them without hitting a paywall. Our infrastructure is built specifically to handle heavy lifting for large catalogs without timeouts, lag, or crashing your store.
So, How Does Our Pricing Work?
If we don't limit inventory, how do we sustain the business?
Instead of limiting your storage (products), we limit the frequency of your usage on the free tier. We charge based on activity.
We call this "Campaigns." A Campaign is a scheduled price change event (e.g., "Set collection X to 20% off starting Friday at 5 PM and revert on Sunday at midnight").
The Basic Plan (Forever Free)
Perfect for stores that run occasional promotions, regardless of their size.
- Products: Unlimited (Edit 1 or 100,000 items at once).
- Campaign Frequency: 1 Bulk/Sale Pricing Campaign per month.
- Cost: $0.
The Premium Plan ($20/month)
Perfect for active stores running weekly flash sales, weekend specials, and daily price adjustments.
- Products: Unlimited.
- Campaign Frequency: Unlimited.
- Cost: $20/month (or save 25% if you pay yearly).
Why This Wins for High-Volume Stores
Let's look at a real-world scenario. Imagine you run an auto parts store with 80,000 SKUs. You only run one major storewide sale a month, perhaps a "First of the Month" markdown.
With Competitor Apps: You would likely pay $50 to $150 per month just to have the ability to load your 80,000 products into their app, even during the 29 days a month you aren't using it.
With Revnous: You stay on the Free Plan. You use your 1 free monthly campaign to edit prices for all 80,000 parts in one go. It costs you $0.
If you decide later that you want to run sales every weekend, you upgrade to Premium. You upgrade because you need more utility, not because you added more products.
Stop Updating Prices Manually
Don't let your inventory size scare you away from automation tools. You shouldn't have to hire a developer or spend hours on spreadsheets just to avoid an unfair app subscription fee.
Whether you are prepping for Black Friday or just need to adjust margins across a massive catalog, Revnous handles the scale so you can handle the sales.
