How pay-as-you-go pricing works for companion chat

Wallet top-ups, per-minute live sessions, and why Soft Corner shows rates before you start — without publishing a static price table that could go stale.

Subscription apps bill on a cadence. Wallet apps bill when you use live services. Soft Corner’s live companion chat follows the second pattern: you add balance, then spend per minute while chatting.

Why rates vary

Different readers can have different per-minute prices. Currency presentation depends on your account context. Publishing one number on a blog would mislead someone on another reader or region.

Before you tap “start”

The product surfaces the applicable rate immediately before a session. That moment is your ground truth — not forum posts, not screenshots, not SEO snippets.
