  • Auto-renewal stops immediately: No further automatic charges occur in subsequent billing periods.
  • Access continues until end of current period: Paid features remain accessible through the end of the already-paid month.
  • No pro-rated refunds: Mid-period cancellations do not trigger a refund for unused days.

However, refunds are available in the following cases:

  • Payment without use: Full refund if the Member has never accessed any paid feature within 7 days of payment.
