Private Pay. Paid plans are billed to your card through Stripe. Monthly plans are charged on your enrollment date each month. Annual plans are charged once a year. By subscribing you authorize Luminari to charge your payment method on a recurring basis until you cancel.
Free Trial. New paid accounts require a valid payment method at signup and include a 7-day free trial. You are not charged during the trial. Your first charge occurs on the day after the trial ends ("day 8") unless you cancel before then. You may cancel at any time during the trial for no charge.
Failed Payments. If a charge is declined, we automatically retry your card up to three times. If payment still cannot be collected, your account is downgraded to the free plan and paid features are locked until you update your payment method. Your data is always kept.
You may cancel future billing at any time through your account dashboard. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period, stops all future charges, and drops your account to the free plan while keeping all of your data.
Once a billing period has been charged, that period is final: it cannot be cancelled mid-period, and it is non-refundable. You may cancel to prevent future charges, but the period already billed runs to its end.
We do not issue refunds for any period that has already been billed. This includes your current billing period at the time of cancellation and all prior periods of enrollment.
If you have questions about billing, reach us at hello@luminari.school.
