Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use PPP-adjusted pricing or direct currency conversion?+
For B2B SaaS, PPP-adjusted pricing typically performs better in emerging markets. Direct conversion makes prices unaffordable in lower-income countries and leaves money on the table in high-income ones. Start with PPP data from the World Bank, then adjust based on competitive pricing in each market and your own conversion data.
How often should I update FX rates for pricing?+
Most SaaS companies update published prices quarterly or semi-annually, not in real-time. Customers expect price stability. Lock in rates at the start of each quarter and absorb minor fluctuations. Only adjust mid-quarter if a currency moves more than 10-15% against your base currency.
Should prices be tax-inclusive or tax-exclusive?+
This depends on the market and your customer segment. B2C products in the EU must display tax-inclusive prices by law. B2B products typically show tax-exclusive prices because business buyers reclaim VAT. For B2B SaaS, show tax-exclusive prices with a note that taxes will be calculated at checkout.
How do I handle refunds in a different currency?+
The safest approach is to refund in the original transaction currency at the original exchange rate. This avoids FX gain/loss disputes with customers. Document this policy in your terms of service and make sure your payment processor supports same-currency refunds. ---
