FAQs
Q: Does Surfer offer a trial period?
A. No, we currently do not offer a trial period. However, you can take advantage of our 7-day money-back guarantee policy. If Surfer doesn't meet your expectations, simply request a refund within the first 7 days of your subscription.
Q. How can I upgrade/downgrade my subscription on the new pricing?
A. You can upgrade/downgrade your subscription from the plan section. Upgrades happen immediately, but downgrades will be scheduled for your next billing date. Learn how to downgrade your subscription here.
Q. What happens if I upgrade my subscription before my next billing date?
A. Upgrades are not prorated. Instead, we will add any remaining credits you had in your previous plan, and your billing date will reset immediately.
For example, suppose your billing date is March 1st, and you upgrade on March 15th to the Advanced plan, but you have 4 content editors left from your Essential plan. Your new billing date will now be March 15th, and you will have 29 credits (25 for Advanced and 4 remaining credits from Essential) to use until April 15th.
Q: What is considered an upgrade when switching between plans?
A: It's pretty straightforward – switching to a more expensive plan, is considered an upgrade. Similarly, switching to a cheaper plan, is deemed a downgrade.
Q. Why am I getting 2 separate invoices?
A. If you purchased an add-on on top of your monthly/annual subscription, you will get 2 separate invoices: one for your monthly/annual subscription and the other for your add-ons. You can check your upcoming invoices on Your Plan and click on "See breakdown →" under Upcoming Payments.
Q. Why am I getting charged tax?
A. Because we are tax-registered in the UK and EU, all members automatically get VAT added to their invoices. However, if you have a valid EU or UK VAT ID, we can add that to your account so you don’t get charged tax on your future invoices.
Q. What happens when I cancel my plan?
A. When you cancel your plan, you will keep your current plan until the current billing period ends, but your automatic renewal for next month will cease. Learn how to cancel your plan here.
Q. What happens to my add-ons when I cancel my plan? (For legacy plans)
A. Add-ons should be used concurrently with an active subscription. When you cancel your subscription, your add-ons will also be canceled, and you won’t be able to use them.
Q. Do unused credits roll over to the next month?
A. Unused CE and AI credits do not roll over to the next month, with the only exception being when you upgrade to a higher plan with remaining credits from your previous plan.
Q. Which plan am I currently on?
A. All information regarding your current plan and payment information can be found on Your Plan page. This page is only available to the account owner and selected admins. You can review organization roles on this page. If you do not see this page or the Upgrade option, please contact your account owner or support team.
Q. The limits of the biggest plan are not enough for my needs; how can I get something even bigger?
A. If none of the plans suit you, request a call with our sales team.
