Billing & plans
Trials, upgrades, downgrades and what's enforced.
Billing runs through Shopify. Charges appear on your Shopify invoice alongside your other apps; we never see or store a card.
The trial#
Thirty days from install, on any plan. Nothing is charged during it, and uninstalling before it ends charges nothing at all.
One deliberate detail: realtime indexing stays off while a trial is pending. A trial that hasn't converted is treated as the scheduled tier for indexing purposes. Paid capabilities start when the charge is accepted — which is also why your first realtime webhook arrives moments after you approve the subscription rather than on install day.
Changing plans#
- Upgrades
- apply immediately. Shopify prorates the difference, and the new limits take effect at once — including creating webhook subscriptions if you're moving into a realtime tier.
- Downgrades
- apply at the next renewal, so you never lose a connected source mid-month. If you're over the new plan's source limit at renewal, the admin asks you to choose which sources to keep rather than silently disconnecting one.
What is actually enforced#
| Promise | Enforced by |
|---|---|
| Price, trial length, plan name | The Shopify subscription |
| Indexing mode (scheduled vs realtime) | Your shop's tier, reconciled on every subscription change |
| Vendor and CSV source limits | Checked when a source is added |
| Fitment Data add-on | An entitlement flag on your shop |
| Catalog size guidance | Not enforced — sales sizing only |
| Dev hours, support tiers, free setup | Service promises, not code |
Being straight about the last two rows matters: nothing stops a Starter shop indexing 300,000 products. If you do, we'll talk to you about a plan that fits, not throttle you mid-season.
Invoices and taxes#
Shopify issues the invoice and handles tax. Billing questions specific to the charge — receipts, VAT numbers, payment failures — go through Shopify. Questions about what you're paying for come to us.
Cancelling#
Uninstalling the app cancels the subscription. There is no notice period and no cancellation fee. See uninstalling for what happens to your data.
The wysync.com data subscriptions are 12-month contracts billed separately, outside Shopify. The app subscription described here has no minimum term. Buying one never obliges you to the other.
Support is answered by the people who wrote this code — not a ticket queue.
