Payments and Subscriptions
Some services are offered for a fee. Subscription types:
- Monthly subscription (ongoing transaction): A recurring monthly charge. You may cancel at any time - via the cancellation page, the billing page, or via our contact page. On receipt of the cancellation notice the recurring charge stops (no later than three business days, or six if sent by registered mail), and no further charges are made. Pro access remains until the end of the paid period.
- Annual subscription: One-time payment for 12 months. Does not auto-renew - no further charge is taken at the end of the term. Email reminders are sent 30, 7, and 1 days before expiration. Manual renewal is available from the billing page.
- The Operator is a VAT-exempt dealer (עוסק פטור) and does not charge VAT. Prices displayed are the full and final prices, in New Israeli Shekels.
- Payment is processed through the payment method you provide to our payment processor (Ching / Shift Logic Ltd.), which handles billing, cards, and receipts. A receipt is issued for every charge.
Cancellation & refund policy (Consumer Protection Law 5741-1981):
- Distance-transaction cancellation: You may cancel within 14 days of the transaction or of receiving the transaction-details document, whichever is later. For a cancellation not due to a defect, the Operator may charge a cancellation fee of up to 5% of the transaction price or ILS 100 - whichever is lower.
- Monthly subscription: Cancel any time as above; you will not be charged for any period after cancellation. If the service has already begun, you pay only a proportional amount for the period actually used.
- Annual subscription: Cancel within 14 days for a refund less a proportional amount for actual use and the cancellation fee above. Thereafter you may still cancel the continued engagement; a proportional refund will be considered on request.
- To request cancellation or a refund: the cancellation page, the billing page, or the contact page with the subject "Refund Request". Response time: up to 7 business days. Refunds are issued to the original payment method.
Nothing herein derogates from the consumer's rights under the Consumer Protection Law or any applicable law.
