Every service you purchase from SimplisticNode is tied to a billing cycle. Understanding how this works helps you avoid unexpected charges and ensures your services remain active without interruption.
How Invoices Are Generated
Invoices are automatically generated a set number of days before your service renewal date. This gives you time to review the invoice and make payment before the due date. The exact lead time depends on your billing cycle, but it is typically between 7 and 14 days in advance.
Each invoice includes a breakdown of the services being renewed, the billing period covered, any applicable taxes, and the total amount due. If you have multiple services with the same renewal date, they may be combined into a single invoice for convenience.
Billing Cycles Explained
Monthly: Your service renews every 30 days. This is the most flexible option and ideal if you want to try a service without a long-term commitment.
Quarterly: Your service renews every 90 days. This often comes with a small discount compared to monthly billing.
Annually: Your service renews every 365 days. Annual plans typically offer the best value, with the largest discount applied.
What Happens If You Miss a Payment
If an invoice is not paid by the due date, your service may be suspended. Suspended services are not immediately deleted - you will have a grace period during which you can make payment to reactivate your service. If payment is not received within the grace period, the service and its associated data may be permanently removed.
Important: Always ensure your payment method is up to date and that you have sufficient funds to cover upcoming renewals. Enabling auto-pay is the easiest way to prevent accidental lapses.
