Masterplan is the first studio album by Swiss singer Stefanie Heinzmann. It was released by Universal Music Domestic on March 7, 2008 (see 2008 in music) in German-speaking Europe, after she won the television talent show SSDSDSSWEMUGABRTLAD. The album was mainly produced by Paul NZA and Marek Pompetzki. The album reached the top 10 in Austria and Germany and debuted at the top of the album charts in Switzerland, where it was certified Platinum by the IFPI for more than 30,000 copies sold. ^[2] It was eventually certified platinum in Germany by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie as well, for shipping 200,000 copies.^[3]

On November 14, 2008, a deluxe edition of the album was released, including the previously unreleased single "The Unforgiven", a Metallica cover, a Stevie Wonder cover, one B-side, and two remix versions.
