2. Initial services offered for free:
This is the strategy to implement to attract users through premium services which can be offered for free for a short initial period. Once this subscription period gets over, charging users is a good source of money going forward as you can now expect the users to purchase your service if deemed worthy by them.

3. Reward users to browse ads:

4. Payment options:
Having multiple interfaces and payment options, not only keeps you less dependent on one vendor but also gives you promotions to incentivize for the customers to choose one over the other for in-app purchasing options.

7. Partnering:
If you have another company with a similar target base, whose partnership can help both of you garner more eyeballs, then go for it. You can use referral fee here to monetize through app advertising.
8. Sponsorships:
These could be the initial source of income for your app through advertising and banner ads for gathering attention for your sponsors.
9. Data analytics to know customer purchases:
Good use of app analytics helps you track history of customer purchases, thus, giving you an insight in knowing what exactly to suggest the customer for future purchases.
