  • Each has a real cost: Hnry fee is charged as 1 percent of income processed through the platform rather than a flat subscription, so cost rises directly with earnings; Plaid no dollar amount is published for any product, and the pricing page states no per request rate or minimum commitment

Plaid

  • No dollar amount is published for any product, and the pricing page states no per request rate or minimum commitment
  • Three different billing models apply depending on the product, being one time per connected account, monthly per connected account, and per successful API call
  • That mix means total cost depends on which products are combined rather than on a single unit
  • Discounted rates require the Growth plan, which is a 12 month commitment
