Translation Pricing Guide: Understanding Pay-Per-Page vs Subscription Models

Choosing the right translation pricing model can save you hundreds of euros while ensuring quality results. Let's cut through the confusion and find what works best for your needs.

The Two Main Pricing Models

Pay-Per-Page (Best for Most Businesses)

How it works: Pay only for what you translate. Simple, transparent pricing with no commitments.

Example costs:

• 1 page = €0.99
• 5 pages = €2.99
• 20 pages = €10.49
• 50 pages = €25.49

Best for: Occasional translation needs, small businesses, unpredictable volumes, anyone wanting flexibility.

Monthly Subscription ($99-$999/month)

How it works: Pay monthly fee for translation volume caps.

The problem: You pay even when not translating. Most businesses waste 60-80% of their subscription.

Best for: Only if you consistently translate 200+ pages monthly.
