Crypto portfolio tracker pricing: lifetime or yearly

Three ways in, and one of them ends

Free asks for no card, and the charts not even for an account. Of the two priced ways, both open exactly the same application — every feature, every chart, the same encryption. What they differ on is what happens next year.

Why not the usual tracker

Nobody is named on this page, on purpose. Prices and feature lists move, so a table of rivals here would be out of date within a quarter, and where this site does compare by name, the page lists its sources and the date they were read. These are three properties that do not move, and what Perly does instead of each.

The ladder

Paid once. The cohort you join is the price you keep.

A cohort closes when its seats are sold, not when a clock runs out. One that nobody buys stays open at its price for as long as that takes.

21,000 seats in all, and never one more.

Twenty-one thousand sats

At a Bitcoin price of $100,000, a founder seat costs exactly 21,000 sats. The number of cohorts, the size of the club and the price of the first ticket all land on the same number.

After the last seat

The subscription is on offer beside the seats from the first day, and it outlives them: when the last seat is gone it is the only way in, at the price it has today. A subscriber can still buy a seat while seats remain — the time paid for and not yet used comes off its price.

Why that number

It is what running Perly costs, with room left to keep building it. A year of subscription pays for the servers and the backups, for market data licensed for a product that charges, and for the network fees and taxes every payment carries — set so that each subscriber covers their own share rather than being carried by the next one. Against a seat it is plain arithmetic: the last seat costs 2.5 years of subscribing, paid once, so a club member is ahead from year 3.

The two are priced against each other on purpose: long enough that subscribing is a real choice, short enough that a seat is plainly the one to keep.

Crypto only

There are no cards. Dropping them drops the merchant of record with them, and with it the tax registrations across dozens of jurisdictions, the verification onboarding, the chargebacks and the four per cent. The price shown is the price charged.

Your price does not move

A subscription inherits the club's own rule: your cohort is your price. Whoever subscribes at one price pays it for as long as they do not stop, and indexation reaches new subscribers only. The side effect is worth saying plainly, because it cuts both ways — stopping gives up the old price for good.

14 days first

A trial is a subscription that cost nothing: the same access, the same expiry, the same screen at the end. When the 14 days are up, adding and changing entries stop, and so does setting up anything new around them — goals, plans, alerts, watched addresses. The account still reads, exports and deletes, and writing waits for a seat or a year. The demo portfolio fills every chart with eighteen months of history in one click, so 14 days is long enough to judge the product before entering a single transaction of your own.

What money buys, and what it does not

Two things are easy to run together. Access is whether you are inside the application at all, and it is bought — by a seat or by a subscription, there is no third way. Portfolio slots are a separate axis entirely: they are earned — one for each friend you invite who confirms their e-mail, up to five; one for signing up with a friend's code; more with an unlock code — and a seat does not grant them. A member and a subscriber both start with one portfolio and widen it the same way.

Four states, and what each one gives you in the application

Trial

Everything, for 14 days.

Subscriber

Everything, while the year runs.

Club member

Everything. No expiry — that is the point of a seat.

Expired

Reading, export and deleting, for as long as the account exists.

Expiry never takes your data

Access to the application stops; your data never does. An expired account still reads, exports and deletes — its entries, its portfolios, the account itself; it only cannot add or change an entry, or set up something new around one. Taking reading away would make “your records are yours” false at precisely the moment somebody tests it. Paying restores writing at once.

A payment goes one way

There are no refunds. A payment moves in one direction: once it arrives, it is not sent back — there is no card network to reverse it and no chargeback to ask for. What stands in a refund's place is the 14 free days: the deciding happens before the money does. Nothing renews by itself either, so there is never a payment you did not start.

What “forever” means

Access to the application lasts as long as Perly runs. If Perly ever stops, the last release is opened under a free licence and a full export of your data is guaranteed — that export already works today. Three sentences, published before the first seat was sold, because a promise this size should be checkable rather than implied.
