The short version

  • Each has a real cost: MYOB every published price is promotional and reverts to a higher regular rate after an introductory period, for example Business Pro rises from AUD 21/month to AUD 70/month after 6 months; Lemon Squeezy acting as merchant of record means Lemon Squeezy takes a percentage transaction fee on every sale on top of payment processing costs, rather than a flat subscription
