Billing


All accounts will now renew on the first of the month

Billing dates used to depend on when you initially signed up. On the new platform, all accounts will be billed on the first of each month. Where your billing date was not previously the first, you will have been credited with a prorated amount for October 2021 to ensure you were not overcharged.


Contact customer support if you need to access previous invoices and view your billing history since moving to the upgraded platform.
