BlockTier: Affordable Blockchain Solutions Packages for Small Businesses
This document outlines our tiered pricing structure for blockchain and decentralized application (DApp) development services specifically designed for small businesses and entrepreneurs. From entry-level smart contracts to comprehensive DApp solutions with compliance features, we've created flexible options to meet varying business needs and budgets. Each package includes transparent pricing, clear deliverables, and strategic pathways to blockchain integration without enterprise-level costs.
Why Tiered Blockchain Solutions Make Sense for Small Businesses
Small businesses and entrepreneurs often face a significant barrier when exploring blockchain technology: enterprise-level pricing without entry-level options. Our tiered approach addresses this market gap by providing scalable solutions that grow with your business needs and technical comfort.
Traditional blockchain development firms typically target large corporations with six-figure minimum engagements. This pricing structure effectively locks out smaller innovators who could benefit most from blockchain's transparency, security, and efficiency advantages. By contrast, our three-tier model creates accessible on-ramps to blockchain technology.
Risk Mitigation
Start small to test blockchain concepts without committing significant resources. Our entry-level package allows you to explore functionality with minimal investment before scaling up.
Budget Flexibility
Choose a solution that aligns with your current financial capacity while preserving upgrade paths for future expansion. No need to overspend on features you're not ready to implement.
Technical Learning Curve
Build organizational knowledge gradually. Each tier introduces additional complexity only after you've mastered the fundamentals, preventing overwhelming your team or customers.
The stepped approach also creates natural growth points in your blockchain journey. Many clients start with our entry-level package to validate concepts, then upgrade to more comprehensive solutions as they see concrete business benefits and customer adoption increases.
Entry-Level Package: Mini Build / Smart Contract Setup
Our Mini Build package serves as an accessible entry point for businesses curious about blockchain technology but hesitant to make a significant initial investment. This package is specifically designed to provide tangible value while minimizing financial risk.
Package Details:
  • Price Range: $1,500 – $2,500
  • Development of one smart contract (ERC-20 token or simple function)
  • Testnet deployment for safe experimentation without mainnet costs
  • MetaMask integration for easy wallet connectivity
  • One-hour comprehensive onboarding call to ensure your team understands how to interact with your new blockchain asset
This package is ideal for businesses looking to tokenize a simple asset, create a basic membership system, or implement a straightforward smart contract function like a simple escrow or voting mechanism. It provides everything needed to test a blockchain concept without the complexity or cost of a full decentralized application.

Why Start Small?
Our entry-level package allows you to validate blockchain concepts with actual implementation rather than theoretical discussions. This hands-on experience helps inform future blockchain strategy with minimal upfront investment.
The Mini Build serves as an excellent "proof of concept" that demonstrates both our development capabilities and the potential value blockchain can bring to your specific business case. Many clients use this package to secure stakeholder buy-in before moving to more comprehensive implementations.
Mid-Tier Package: Custom DApp Lite
The Custom DApp Lite package represents our most popular offering, balancing robust functionality with small business affordability. This solution provides a complete working decentralized application rather than just a smart contract, enabling more complex blockchain interactions while maintaining reasonable development costs.
Core DApp Development
A fully functional decentralized application with intuitive user interface, wallet connection capabilities, and smart contract integration. This includes both frontend and backend components customized to your specific business needs.
JusticeFund Integration
Basic implementation of JusticeFund protocols for enhanced transparency and dispute resolution mechanisms, providing additional security for transactions conducted through your DApp.
Compliance Overview
Preliminary compliance assessment highlighting potential regulatory considerations specific to your industry and use case. While not a comprehensive legal mapping, this provides essential guidance for responsible deployment.
Package Specifics:
  • Price Range: $5,000 – $7,500
  • Development Timeline: 4-6 weeks (depending on complexity)
  • Support Period: 30 days post-deployment
  • Includes: Up to 3 simple smart contracts with frontend integration
This package is ideal for businesses ready to implement functional blockchain solutions that customers or partners can directly interact with. Common applications include token-gated membership platforms, simple marketplace structures, transparent supply chain tracking, or basic decentralized finance tools tailored to specific industry needs.
The Custom DApp Lite provides significant value while keeping costs manageable for small businesses and startups. It delivers a complete working solution rather than just foundational elements, making it our most popular option among serious blockchain adopters with budget constraints.
Full Package: Enterprise-Grade DApp + Integration
Our comprehensive Full Package delivers enterprise-grade blockchain functionality at a fraction of typical enterprise pricing. This solution is designed for businesses ready to fully embrace blockchain technology with sophisticated features, robust security, and comprehensive compliance integration.
Key Components:
  • Price Range: $15,000 – $25,000
  • Custom application development with advanced user experience design
  • Multiple smart contract systems with cross-contract interaction capabilities
  • UCC + ERC 3643 compliance integration for regulatory alignment
  • NotaryChain tools for on-chain verification and certification
  • Proof-of-Funds setup for enhanced transaction security
  • Dedicated hosting with performance optimization
  • Extended support period of 90 days post-deployment
This package is designed for businesses with specific compliance requirements, complex transaction needs, or those planning to scale blockchain operations significantly. While it represents our premium offering, the price point remains far below what traditional enterprise blockchain development firms charge for comparable functionality.
Even if most clients opt for our entry-level or mid-tier packages, maintaining this comprehensive option serves an important role in our pricing strategy. It establishes our capability to deliver sophisticated solutions while making the mid-tier package appear even more affordable by comparison.

Real-World Success Stories
The true test of any blockchain solution is its real-world impact on business operations and outcomes. The following case studies highlight how businesses similar to yours have successfully implemented our various package options to achieve tangible results.
Entry-Level Implementation: Local Artisan Marketplace
A collective of 12 independent craftspeople wanted to create a tokenized membership system to reward loyal customers. With limited technical expertise and an even more limited budget, they opted for our Entry-Level package.
We implemented a simple ERC-20 token that merchants could distribute to customers based on purchase amounts. These tokens could then be redeemed for discounts or exclusive products. The initial investment of $1,800 was recouped within three months through increased customer retention and higher average transaction values.
"We were blockchain-curious but incredibly budget-conscious. The Entry-Level package let us implement something real without breaking the bank. Our customers love the token system, and we've since upgraded to the Mid-Tier package to add more functionality."
— Miguel Torres, Collective Coordinator
Mid-Tier Success: Real Estate Transaction Platform
A regional real estate brokerage implemented our Mid-Tier solution to create transparency in their transaction process. Their Custom DApp Lite package included earnest money escrow smart contracts, document verification, and transaction tracking accessible to all parties.

42% reduction in transaction disputes, 28% faster closing times, and a competitive advantage that helped secure 15 additional listings in the first quarter after implementation.
Full Package Implementation: Supply Chain Finance Solution
A mid-sized distributor implemented our Full Package to create a supply chain finance solution that provided their suppliers with earlier payment options while maintaining their own cash flow advantages. The sophisticated smart contract system integrated with their existing ERP and included compliance features necessary for financial transactions.
The $22,000 investment enabled them to offer dynamic discounting to suppliers, creating a new revenue stream that generated $58,000 in the first year while strengthening supplier relationships. The compliance integration features were particularly valuable in navigating the regulatory requirements of financial transactions across state lines.
These success stories demonstrate that blockchain solutions can deliver meaningful business value at any budget level when properly tailored to specific operational needs and implemented with clear objectives.

What Makes Our Approach Different
Technology With Purpose
We focus on business outcomes first, technology second. Every recommendation is tied directly to measurable business value rather than implementing blockchain for its own sake.
Scalable Architecture
All solutions are built with future growth in mind. Even our Entry-Level package uses architecture that can be expanded upon rather than requiring a complete rebuild when your needs evolve.
Knowledge Transfer
We prioritize educating your team throughout the process, ensuring you develop internal blockchain literacy and reducing dependency on external experts over time.
The blockchain landscape continues to evolve rapidly, creating both opportunities and challenges for small businesses. By implementing thoughtfully designed solutions that address specific business needs, you can gain many of the advantages that larger enterprises are capturing through blockchain technology, but at a fraction of the cost.
