Appily Slot Economics

Appily's Reseller plan at $85/mo includes 1,000 app slots, a figure that transforms how agencies price app services. Instead of charging a one-time build fee, agencies can treat each slot as a unit of recurring margin. For example, an agency reselling apps at $300/mo per client (as in the Local Business App offer) covers the entire platform cost with a single client, leaving 999 slots as pure upside. The framework forces agencies to calculate the break-even client count: at $85/mo, just one client at $300/mo yields a 253% margin on platform costs. This model also highlights the operational constraint: each client requires separate Apple and Google developer accounts, so the real limit is account management overhead, not slot count. Agencies should map their client roster against slot usage and developer account maintenance to maximize the recurring revenue potential of Appily's white-label infrastructure.
