04 / PAYMENT TERMS

Payment terms

Fees

£49 a month per paying account, plus £3 per active employee a month; Professional adds £1.50 per active employee. We are not registered for VAT, so no VAT is charged. If we register, we will give you notice and add VAT at the prevailing rate from the date of registration.An active employee is a person who did recorded work for the account in the calendar month (a book-on, a check call, a form submission or a timesheet clock-in), counted once, in the account's own timezone.Each month is billed after it ends, on that month's count.

Who pays

The owner of a site is billed for the officers who work it, including officers supplied by an agency.An organisation and an agency may agree that a site's officers are billed to the agency instead.Agencies join free and pay only for officers on their own client sites; an agency with none in a month pays nothing for that month.

Trial, term and cancellation

New accounts start with a 30-day free trial, with no card. If no subscription is in place when it ends, rostering is paused until one is.Monthly billing has no minimum term. You can cancel at any time; the month you are in is billed when it ends.Annual billing is 2 months free on an agreed number of active employees; anything above it is billed monthly. Annual fees are not refunded for unused months except where required by law.

Payment, price changes and storage

If a payment fails we retry it; an account that stays unpaid may have rostering paused until it is paid.We give at least 60 days' written notice before a price increase applies to an existing account.Each active employee includes 2 GB of photos and files, shared across the account.
