Cledara

- Pricing page shows a GBP 100/month floor if fewer than 10 apps are paid with Cledara cards in the first month, so low adoption of the card flow costs money.
- Discovery is payment-led: apps show up because they are paid through Cledara virtual cards, not through SSO or email scanning (SSO only on Pro).

Worth knowing
