Pay as you go vs Annual: what is the difference?

Written By Simon from Replaiy

Replaiy supports two billing frequencies: Pay as you go and Annual. The main difference is how often you are billed and how your subscription cycle is structured.

Pay as you go

Pay as you go is billed every 4 weeks. This option offers more short-term flexibility and is often the easiest starting point for new users.

Annual

Annual is billed once per year in advance. This option gives a lower effective monthly cost and is a better fit for users who already know they want to stay on the platform longer term.
