Good to know
Prices are before GST. 18% GST is added at checkout and shown on your receipt.
Renewal is by hand. Nothing is charged automatically. We remind you 3 days before your plan ends; renewing early adds the time after the current end.
Upgrading from Premium to Premium Professional starts straight away, and the unused part of your Premium is taken off the price.
Yearly discounts are once per plan year, on your own conference registration and on one article you submit, at Science Catalogs conferences (in the payment window when you register on sciencecatalogs.com) and journals (on your APC invoice in JournalOS): choose "Use my Premium discount". They do not combine with other discount codes or automatic discounts (the bigger one applies) and an unused discount does not carry over.
Badges show next to your name only when your identity is verified, so a badge never stands in for a checked identity.
When a plan ends you return to Basic. Nothing is deleted: files over the Basic storage stay, but you cannot add new ones until you are within it.
Refunds: within 7 days of paying if you have not used a yearly discount. Write to our contact form.
