Never overpay again. True Prices gives you the same pricing power, market intelligence and negotiating advantage that big companies have used for years — in an app, working for you. Most price tools are paid for by merchants. Ads, affiliate commissions and paid placement don't disappear; they get built into the price on your screen. True Prices takes no cut of what you buy and makes nothing when you spend more. Our only job is finding you a lower price. HOW IT WORKS The search starts before you ask. Every day, True Prices uncovers the buying routes behind everyday spending — the suppliers, intermediaries, wholesale and negotiated rates most shoppers never see. Tell it what you need. Ask about a purchase, booking or bill before you spend, and your assistant puts those routes to work for your specific need. Let competition do its job. More buying routes mean real competition for your money. Sellers compete, you choose. WHAT YOUR ASSISTANT COVERS • Shopping — electronics, home & garden, apparel, baby & toddler, sporting goods, pet supplies, furniture, health & beauty and more • Groceries and wholesale food • Travel — hotels, flights, car rentals, cruises, airport transfers • Fun — event tickets, tours & activities, theme parks, movie and ski tickets • Bills & utilities — electricity, internet, mobile, water, streaming, home services • Health — medicines and medical procedures • Transport — gas and rideshare WHAT IT DOES FOR YOU • Finds every option, not just the ones that pay to be seen • Reveals prices that are normally hidden until checkout • Makes stores compete for your business • Opens up wholesale and negotiated routes • Helps you get your bills down • Tells you when you're about to overpay WHY WE CHARGE Paying us keeps us working for you. Free tools are usually funded by the merchants whose prices you're comparing. A subscription means our incentives point the same way yours do: the lower the price we find, the more useful we are. One avoided overpayment can cover the month. SUBSCRIPTION True Prices is a subscription with a 1-month free trial. Monthly and annual plans are available (annual saves 20%). Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
