02Subscription cancellation
You can cancel your subscription at any time from Settings → Billing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. We do not pro-rate refunds for the unused portion of a billing cycle.
If you cancel within 60 days of your first subscription purchase, we will issue a full refund. This 60-day window applies once per customer.
03One-time service fees
For paid one-time services (formation, foreign qualification, amendments, trademark, etc.), the refund policy depends on the stage of work.
| Stage | Service fee | State filing fee |
|---|---|---|
| Order placed, work not started | Full refund | Full refund |
| Work started, not yet submitted | Full refund within 60 days; otherwise prorated based on work performed | Full refund |
| Submitted to state agency | Full service fee refunded within 60 days | Non-refundable |
| State rejected the filing for our error | Full refund | Refund where state issues one |
| State rejected the filing for customer's error | Non-refundable; we will work with you to resubmit | Refund where state issues one |
04Third-party fees
Some services involve third-party costs (USPTO trademark fees, domain registration, payment processing). Those fees are passed through at cost and are refundable only to the extent the third party itself refunds them.
