Subscriptions

If I request a refund, will my subscription automatically be cancelled?

Yes. When a refund is processed, the associated subscription is automatically cancelled. No future renewal payments will be charged.

If my subscription is cancelled, can I still use the plugin until the end of my billing period?

Yes. You will continue to have access to the plugin, updates, and support until the end of your current paid billing period.

After that date, your license will expire.

What happens when my subscription expires?

When your subscription expires:

  • The plugin will continue working on your site.

  • You will no longer receive updates.

  • You will no longer receive VIP support.

  • You may lose access to premium features that require an active license (if applicable).

What’s the difference between “Cancelled” and “Expired”?

  • Cancelled → The subscription will not renew again, but remains active until the end of the billing term.

  • Expired → The billing period has ended, and the license is no longer active.
