Plainly
When am I charged?
For a deep reading, only once it’s written. When you pay, the payment is held; it’s taken once the whole reading is written. For the year, once, on the day you buy it.
What if readings pause in the middle?
You aren’t charged, and nothing half-written is shown or kept. The payment stays held for 24 hours so you can try again, or you can let it go straight away. After 24 hours it’s released by itself.
Does anything renew?
No. There’s no subscription and nothing to cancel. The year simply ends, and every page in your notebook stays readable and exportable.
Why isn’t there a monthly plan?
We’d rather you pay for what you use than have to remember to cancel something. One price, paid once.
Do I need an account?
No. Your notebook and your purchases are kept in this browser. If you sign in, your purchases are kept in your account too, and your notebook as well if you choose. Keep the receipt number from checkout.
What does the payment processor see?
The item (“One deep reading” or “A notebook for the year”), the price and your payment details. Never your question, and never a reading.
Why this price in my currency?
Each country has its own price, set in its own currency rather than converted from another one. Where sales tax applies, it’s shown at checkout before you pay, and on the receipt.
