yes my numbers are real. No assumptions. All my customers know they will pay at some point.

I like your approach and I plan to do it as a last resort. my point is that I expect at least 30% churn rate when I start charging my customers.

So I prefer to reach 1000 or 1500 sellers signups before starting charging.

$25 is too much for an emerging market like Egypt. I prefer to charge $5 or $6.

That's a huge assumption. It might be 0% it might be 99.9%. Answering that question will give you a much better idea whether or not you should shut down your startup. Willingness and ability to pay for your product are the most important bits. The rest is secondary.

How much a churn rate is considered a reasonable one? so I can measure it.

I can force a portion of users to do pay and check the percentage Of the churn rate.

B2B churn should be very low, low double digits annually.
