01 / Transparency
Our billing philosophy.
At Render25 (operated by Kingdom Corporation, founded by Ren Lysea), we believe billing should be as straightforward, transparent, and developer-friendly as our APIs. We do not use dark patterns, buried cancellation links, or surprise renewal charges.
This Refund Policy outlines your rights and our obligations regarding subscription charges, plan upgrades, metered email volumes, and service level credits.
02 / Money-Back Guarantee
14-day money-back guarantee for new subscribers.
We stand behind our Anycast transmission speed and inbox placement rates. If you upgrade from our Hobby tier to a paid Launch tier and find that Render25 does not satisfy your technical requirements, you are entitled to a full 100% refund of your initial subscription fee within fourteen (14) calendar days of your upgrade date.
Qualifying Criteria
Applies to the initial month or annual base charge of newly upgraded workspaces.
No Questions Asked
Simply email our billing team at [email protected] with your workspace ID. We process qualifying requests within 2 business days.
Clean Standing Required
The money-back guarantee is void if the workspace was suspended for spamming, purchased email lists, phishing, or violation of our Terms of Service.
03 / Cancellations & Downgrades
Subscription cancellations & downgrades.
You can cancel or downgrade your subscription at any time directly through the Render25 Dashboard under Settings → Billing. You do not need to call or chat with an agent to cancel.
- →End-of-Cycle Cancellation (Default):When you cancel, your paid features, quota limits, and dedicated IP reservations remain active until the end of your current billing period. No further renewals will be charged.
- →Immediate Downgrade to Hobby Tier:If you choose to downgrade immediately to the Hobby tier, any unused balance for the remainder of the billing cycle will be credited to your workspace account balance as a prorated credit toward future usage or services.
- →Annual Plans:Annual subscriptions receive substantial upfront discounts. Cancellations after the initial 14-day window do not qualify for cash refunds for the remaining months, but the plan remains active until the expiration date.
04 / Metered Overages
Metered email volume & accidental spikes.
Email volume sent beyond your plan's monthly allowance is metered at the standard overage rate outlined on our pricing page. Overages reflect real compute and upstream delivery costs incurred on our Anycast MTA clusters.
We are developers ourselves. If an infinite loop or software bug accidentally triggers an unexpected flood of emails from your staging or test environment, contact our billing team within 48 hours of the event. We review runaway sending spikes in good faith and offer one-time relief or partial fee waivers for legitimate developer accidents.
05 / SLA Outage Credits
Service Level Agreement (SLA) downtime relief.
We target a 99.8% monthly uptime across our REST API and Anycast SMTP ingestion gateways. If our service availability drops below this threshold in any calendar month, customers on eligible production tiers qualify for service credits:
< 99.8% to 99.0% Uptime
Service disruption impacting outbound API dispatch
< 99.0% to 95.0% Uptime
Significant outage across multiple relay nodes
< 95.0% Uptime
Critical prolonged service failure
SLA credits are applied as account balance credits toward subsequent billing invoices and are not convertible to cash withdrawals. Scheduled maintenance windows announced at least 48 hours in advance are excluded from downtime calculations.
06 / Exceptions & Disputes
Non-refundable items & chargeback policy.
Refunds and credits will not be granted under the following circumstances:
- Terms of Service Violations: Accounts banned for sending spam, phishing, unauthorized commercial marketing, or fraud are permanently disqualified from all refunds and credits.
- Third-Party ISP Rejections: Emails bounced or rejected due to external mail server policies (e.g. Gmail or Outlook sender reputation penalties) rather than Render25 platform outages.
- Dedicated IP Allocations: Dedicated IP reservation fees are non-refundable once the IP has been provisioned and assigned to your domain.
We kindly ask that you contact our billing team first to resolve any billing discrepancies before initiating a bank chargeback. Chargebacks freeze workspace access automatically while the payment processor conducts their fraud investigation.
