Most founders pick White Label because it's cheaper upfront.

But cheaper when - at launch, or over 3 years?

The break-even point between White Label and Custom typically hits at 18–24 months.

Here's why:
🔹 White Label = low upfront cost, but fees scale with your success. A 7% commission at $500K revenue costs $35K/year. At $2M revenue? That's $140K/year - for the same product.

🔹 Custom = higher upfront cost, but infrastructure costs flatten. Same scale, same product: under $30K/year in cloud costs.
