Treating mobile layout as a smaller desktop layout.
1 Decide what users need to compare Pricing sections fail when every plan looks similar or the important differences are buried.
Name each plan by audience or usage level. Highlight the recommended plan honestly. Keep feature labels short and comparable. 2 Build the card structure Use consistent plan cards so users can scan prices, features and CTAs without relearning the layout.
Use the same order inside every plan card. Keep the primary CTA aligned across plans. Avoid tiny footnotes for important limitations. 3 Make pricing mobile-friendly A multi-column pricing table often becomes unreadable on mobile unless it turns into stacked cards.
Stack plan cards on small screens. Repeat important labels instead of relying on column headers. Keep buttons full width when cards are narrow.

Open ElementYard Should pricing sections use tables or cards? Cards work well for simple plan comparisons. Tables can help when many features must be compared, but they need careful mobile treatment.
What should a recommended pricing plan show? It should show a real reason to choose it, such as best fit, most popular usage or balanced value. Avoid highlighting a plan only for decoration.
