Betterproposals Rule: Resell White-Label Only Above the Premium Tier

Can our agency profitably resell Betterproposals as a branded client service, and which plan makes that math work? Adopt Betterproposals for resale only on the Premium plan ($29/mo, or $21/mo billed annually, per user) or above, and keep Starter ($19/mo, $13/mo annually) for internal drafting only.

“Can our agency profitably resell Betterproposals as a branded client service, and which plan makes that math work?”

Adopt Betterproposals for resale only on the Premium plan ($29/mo, or $21/mo billed annually, per user) or above, and keep Starter ($19/mo, $13/mo annually) for internal drafting only.

Common Mistake

Agencies buy Starter because $13/mo annually looks like the cheapest resale path, then discover custom domain support is locked behind Premium and either eat the upgrade cost mid-retainer or hand clients proposals on a Betterproposals-branded link that undercuts the white-label promise they sold.

Why This Works

Custom domain support, the feature that makes white-label delivery credible to a client, is gated to Premium and Enterprise, so a Starter-based resale ships the vendor's branding on every proposal link. The gap between $13 and $21 per user annually is small enough that a single retainer client covers the upgrade, while the Starter tier's single seat caps any team-based delivery model. Premium also adds CRM integrations, automatic expiry dates, and API, Zapier and MCP Server access, which are the pieces an agency needs to wire proposals into a client's existing sales stack.

Apply When
  • •The agency plans to sell proposal management as a recurring client retainer rather than use it internally
  • •Client-facing proposals must sit on the agency's own domain, not a Betterproposals-branded link
  • •The agency closes 10 or more proposals monthly per client, per the vendor's stated best-fit profile
  • •Monthly proposal volume justifies a per-user cost basis the agency can mark up without pricing itself out
  • •The agency already bills setup fees and wants a low-friction add-on to attach to existing accounts
