Annual cost sketch
Placid Basic ≈ $19 × 12 = $228/year for a 500-credit monthly pool (with rollover caps). OG Stamp Starter is $9 for 500 forever credits. Quiet months do not burn money on OG Stamp; busy launch weeks just consume the pack you already bought.
If you outgrow Starter, Builder ($19 / 2,500) and Scale ($49 / 10,000) stay one-time.
