V3 Beta: what this means for you
V3 Beta is a
product stage
and a pricing window.
Commit early and you pay around half the list price for as long as beta runs. In return, you are using a platform in active development: not every planned capability is complete yet.

The mechanic, plainly
Why around 50% off?
Vendably has two prices per SKU stop: the list price and the beta price. The list price is what the platform costs once beta ends. The beta price is what you pay now. The list price is set at roughly double the beta price, rounded to clean numbers, which is why the saving is around 50% rather than exactly 50% at every stop. You see both prices, always.
The list price is the real post-beta price.
It is not an inflated anchor. The beta price is around 13-20% above previous platform rates from before June 2026. It is not a floor clearance. The list price is what Vendably charges once the platform reaches maturity. It is shown now so there are no surprises later.
Beta places
Beta pricing is limited to 300 places.
The beta rate is available to businesses joining now, while the platform is in active development and beta places remain. It is not a permanent price. It will not run forever. When we close the beta, pricing closes with it for new subscribers.
The beta rate is for the first 300 businesses. When the beta closes, it closes for new subscribers.

Beta pricing is for merchants joining now. Once the beta closes, this rate is no longer available to new subscribers.
Grandfathering explained
What happens to your price after beta ends?
Beta merchants are not moved to the list price the moment beta closes. You have a 12-month grace period at the beta rate, then a single, predictable step to the list price. Here is the timeline.
Now: beta active
You pay the beta rate.
Your price is locked at the beta rate for as long as beta is active. No increases during this period.
Beta closes
12-month lock-in at the beta rate.
When beta closes, your beta price is grandfathered for a further 12 months. A predictable 12-month window from the day beta closes.
12 months later
Single step to list price.
After the 12-month grandfather window, the price steps to the list price at your SKU stop. You will know the exact date the moment beta closes, 12 months ahead.
Growing your catalogue during beta? You keep the beta rate.
If your SKU count grows and you move to a higher stop while beta is still active, the beta rate applies to the new stop. You do not lose your beta pricing by scaling up. This applies for SKU upgrades that happen both during the beta period and during the 12-month grandfather window. Growing your catalogue is not a trigger for stepping to the list price early.
What you get as a beta merchant
Three concrete things. No vague promises.
Beta pricing is not charity. It rewards merchants for committing early, when the platform benefits most from real-world use. Here is what that means in practice.
Your rate is locked.
The beta price holds for as long as beta runs, then for a further 12 months after beta closes. One rate, one clock, no surprises.
Among the first 300 businesses.
You are joining the V3 generation of a platform that has operated since 2017, while beta places remain. That position has a real shelf life: once the 300 places are filled, it is gone.
Your feedback shapes what we build next.
The platform is in active development. Beta merchants use it in production, and what they run into directly influences build priorities. Not a formal advisory role. Just a real consequence of being early.
The Google CSS Programme (20-30% CPC savings on Google Shopping) is free regardless of whether you subscribe to the platform. It is not a beta benefit. It is a permanent structural feature. Inizia con il CSS gratuito →
"Negli undici mesi prima che Vendably prendesse in carico il nostro account, abbiamo generato £306k di fatturato, quasi tutto da organico. Il Paid Shopping era £52. Tre anni dopo abbiamo superato un milione di sterline in un singolo mese con il 3,5% di conversione, e il run rate è di dodici milioni all'anno. Ogni canale è migliorato. L'effetto composto è la piattaforma che lavora."
Domande frequenti
Answered.
Is beta software unfinished or risky to use?
Beta does not mean unstable. It means the platform is in active development and not every planned capability is complete yet. What is Built is in production, used by live merchants today.
Some capabilities are Partial (substantial code exists, with specific features still in progress) and some are Intent (planned, not yet built). Only Built and Partial capabilities are live. We do not present Intent capabilities as available.
Will my price jump the moment beta ends?
No. Beta merchants are grandfathered at the beta rate for 12 months after beta closes. After that window, the price steps to the list price at your SKU stop.
The list price is already shown on the pricing page. There is no hidden number. You will know the step-up amount from the day you sign up.
What is the catch?
There is no hidden catch. The mechanic is explicit: beta price now, 12-month grandfather window, then list price.
This page exists because showing a "~50% off" badge without context looks like a catch. Explaining the mechanic is the mitigation. If anything in these terms is unclear, contact us before you sign up.
I have seen "beta" programmes that run forever. Will this one?
No. Beta has a defined limit: it is tied to active platform development and is limited to 300 places. When it closes, beta pricing closes for new subscribers. There is no discretionary extension and no date we can quietly move.
There is also no date backstop. The beta closes when the platform reaches the right stage, not on a calendar event. If that changes, we will state it explicitly on this page.
Vendably has operated since 2017. Why is V3 discounted?
Because V3 is a new generation of the platform, not a new company. Vendably has operated since 2017. V3 is the current-generation rebuild: the beta discount rewards the first 300 businesses who commit during that rollout, in return for real-world use while the platform is still in active development.
The discount is structural, not distress-driven. The list price is the full-rate, post-beta target. The beta price is itself 13-20% above previous platform rates from before June 2026. It is not a floor clearance.
