Plan vs Boost vs Ad on Aioby: Which One Do You Actually Need?

Plan vs Boost vs Ad in one line: a plan (Growth ₹29/month or Growth Plus ₹79/month) gives you AI credits, discounts and support; a Boost (from ₹5) features one store or listing in rotation; an ad (from ₹9) places a campaign in a specific spot such as the feed or search. Most owners need nothing but a free store at first, then a Boost for one important listing.

A Boost features one store or listing in rotation. An ad is a campaign in a specific placement such as the feed, search results, a category page or the homepage.

Do I need a plan to use Boosts?

No. Anyone can buy a Boost; a plan just gives a discount.

Is Growth worth ₹29 a month?

If you use AI credits often or buy several Boosts, the extra credits and 15% discount can cover it. If not, stay free.

What does Growth Plus add?

More credits, a 30% discount, one free 30-day Boost and ₹40 of ad credit each month, and top support.

Can I cancel or turn off renewal?
