Purchase Terms

All transactions on our platform, including the acquisition of sponsored or start-up plans, are treated as subscriptions. The terms of your agreement with us, related to the product you subscribe to, will remain in effect for the duration of the subscription term you select. When purchasing any of our services, you commit to paying the agreed-upon fees, along with all applicable taxes, at the time of purchase. Timely payment is essential, as failure to do so may result in the termination of your services. Payment methods accepted include credit/debit cards and bank transfers/ACH-enabled bank accounts from recognized financial institutions.

By purchasing our services, you consent to being charged a recurring subscription fee, either by us or our authorized payment agents, as specified in the invoice. This encompasses all relevant fees, charges, taxes, and any additional costs associated with upgrading your subscription. If you opt to upgrade or downgrade your subscription, you must make the necessary payments on a pro-rata basis through the upcoming billing cycle. Afterward, both your subscription and pricing will be adjusted accordingly. Changes to subscriptions will continue to bill at the original schedule but at the updated price starting from the nearest billing cycle.

Subscriptions renew automatically on a month-to-month billing cycle. To cancel your subscription, a non-renewal/cancellation request must be submitted to support@findbestfirms.com at least five business days before your next billing date to ensure timely termination.

In cases where your chosen payment provider fails to process your payment or reaches its expiration, you are responsible for any outstanding amounts. Failure to update your payment information or cancel your subscription grants us the authority to bill your existing payment provider and terminate your subscription.

Your obligation to pay our fees persists for the duration of your subscription or until you cancel it. Applicable taxes are calculated based on the payment information you provide during purchase. You have the flexibility to suspend or cancel your subscription at any time by contacting support@findbestfirms.com

By purchasing our services, you acknowledge that FindbestFirms retains the right to cancel, terminate, suspend, or restrict your access to our services without prior notice or liability, with or without cause, including, but not limited to, failure to pay applicable fees. We also reserve the right to alter, modify, upgrade, add to, or reduce the quality, availability, and nature of our services/products. This may be done at any time and for any reason, including compliance with applicable regulations or laws, without prior notice and at our sole discretion. Additionally, we may test, modify, or remove any products or services that could impact how customers access and pay for our offerings.

We provide no guarantees regarding the results or outcomes of using our product/service offerings. You agree to be responsible for payments under this agreement, regardless of any changes, modifications, or developments to FindbestFirms' services/products that may occur during the term.
