## How do I pay, and what happens to tax and receipts?

You pay through Polar, a payment provider that is also the merchant of record, in its own hosted checkout. People in India pay in rupees and everyone else pays in dollars, and Arcline works out which one applies from your location, so you do not choose it. Premium renews automatically each month or year until you cancel.

- Polar collects and passes on sales tax or VAT where it applies, and shows it at checkout. It also sends your receipt.
- Arcline never sees or stores your card number.
- If a renewal payment fails, Premium continues for a short grace period of 3 days before it ends.
- How to cancel, and what comes back to you, is in the next section.

If prices ever change, you get at least 30 days' notice and the change applies from your next renewal.

## How do I cancel, and can I get my money back?

To cancel, open Profile, then Plan and billing, then Cancel my plan. Before you confirm, the app tells you plainly whether a refund applies and how much it is. The Manage billing button in the same place opens Polar's customer portal, and cancelling there inside the first 7 days is refunded automatically too. There is no cancellation fee.

| When you cancel | What happens to your money | What happens to Premium |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Within 7 days of your first payment | A full refund, including any tax, automatically. No form, no reason, no waiting for us. | It ends right away, and the account moves to the Free plan. |
| After 7 days | No more payments are taken. The unused part of the period is not refunded. | It stays until the end of the period you paid for. |
| A renewal payment | Never refunded, so cancel before the renewal date shown in the app. | It renews if you do not cancel. |

The 7-day money-back guarantee covers your first purchase of Premium and your first purchase of extra websites, once per account for each of the two, on the monthly and the yearly plan. Polar sends the refund to the payment method you used, and it usually reaches your account within 5 to 10 days, depending on your bank. Buying and refunding again and again is not covered. Renewal payments are never refunded. The only other refunds are for a payment made by mistake, for a plan we discontinue, and where the law requires one. See the [Refund and Cancellation Policy](https://arcline.celira.space/refund-policy).

## What happens when I reach a limit, or go back to Free?

Nothing breaks. When you reach a limit, such as the 10 fixes a month on Free, the app says so plainly and offers Premium. Your scores, to-do list and history stay where they are, and the limit starts again with the next month.

If your Premium ends and you have more websites than the Free plan allows, the extra websites are paused. Nothing is deleted: they stay in your account, and they start working again if you come back to Premium. To add websites beyond the 3 included, open Plan and billing in the app.

## What does the price not include?

It covers the software only. Your website host, domain, GitHub, content management system and any security service such as Cloudflare are separate and stay yours to pay. Arcline does not offer human consulting.

AI-written suggestions and drafts have a daily and a monthly limit for each account, and the limit depends on your plan. When you reach it, Arcline falls back to simpler rule-based suggestions until the limit resets.

## Which plan do I need?

| If you want to | Choose |
| --- | --- |
| See where your website stands and fix things yourself | Free |
| Approve a handful of fixes a month on one website | Free |
| Approve as many fixes as you like, or have small, safe ones made without clicking each time | Premium |
| Look after two or three websites, or more with extra websites | Premium |
| Know whether ChatGPT and other assistants mention you, week after week | Premium |
| Plan and draft new articles | Premium |

You can start on Free and upgrade later. Your websites, scores and history stay with your account.

## How does this compare with other ways to pay for SEO?

Free SEO checkers often look at one page or a handful and hand you a report. The Free plan here reads up to 200 pages, repeats the scan every week and turns the result into a to-do list with exact steps. Google Search Console is also free and shows how Google sees your site, including clicks and indexing, and Arcline does not connect to it today, so the two complement each other. Agencies and freelancers cost more because they supply people and strategy, which software does not; the question of [how much SEO costs in India](https://arcline.celira.space/faq/seo-cost-india) covers that range.

Arcline is software that finds and fixes the technical and on-page work.
