Anchor Pricing

The top-tier price that sets the reference point for everything else on the page.

What it is

The most visible premium tier on a pricing page, used to make the modal tier feel like the obvious choice.

Common mistake

Treating the anchor as a tier you actually want to sell. The anchor is a reference, not a target. Most revenue lands at the modal tier directly below it.

Healthy pattern

Anchor priced 3-5x the modal tier. Modal tier inherits perceived value from the anchor without buyers feeling forced into the top.

How LoopWorker reads it

Anchor positioning is one of three pricing-band signals. Decision Read compares anchor + modal + floor across competitors to find where your tier ladder collapses or distorts.
