Do you offer a free trial?
We offer a free 30 day trial. However, before you jump in we would prefer to talk you through the system and help you get set up. It doesn't take very long but it will help you get the most out of your trial and see the benefits of Lightyear.
Can I switch tiers mid-plan?
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. You can choose to trigger the plan change immediately or choose for it to take effect on your next monthly billing cycle.
Is there a setup fee?
We have an optional setup and onboarding package available which we will discuss with you prior to purchasing your first payment plan. The majority of our customers take advantage of this service. Telephone, email and chat Support is included free of charge for every plan.
Can I cancel my plan?
We are confident you won't want to, but you can cancel your Lightyear plan at any time from the billing section of the Application. You will be charged up to the end of the current month. All your data will remain available to you for your regulatory period. Please refer to our terms and conditions for more information.
Can I buy credits in bulk?
Due to the billing nature of premium features, a monthly subscription allows you to have the most flexibility to change plans and features as you wish. We do offer a 6 month bulk billing credit plan which can be accessed from your billing area. However, some premium features may need to be charged seperately in addition to the bulk plan.
What countries is Lightyear available in?
Lightyear is currently available in most European countries, Canada, Equatorial Guinea, Hong Kong, Iceland, Malaysia, Myanmar, Australia, New Zealand, Philippines, Samoa, Singapore, South Africa, Tonga, United Arab Emirates, United States and Vanuatu.
If your business resides in a country not listed, then please contact us to see if Lightyear can be used in your country.
Do you offer overage?
Lightyear's Overage Policy (if enabled by you) allows you to go over your monthly credit allowance. This is a great feature for businesses that may have unexpected spikes in transactions or peak periods and do not want to change their base plan. Whatever additional credits you use in a billing cycle (over and above the number of credits made available to you in that billing cycle), Lightyear will simply charge you for those credits when your next billing cycle is charged. So, if you are on a 500 credit per month plan, and you use 550 credits in the month, on your next billing cycle, Lightyear will charge you for your new 500 credit billing cycle, and a separate charge for the 50 credits you over-used in the previous billing cycle. Those additional credits will be charged at the same per credit rate as you were paying in that previous billing cycle.
Why is there an integration fee?
*Lightyear consumes significant technology costs to develop and maintain our integrations. We also pay third party API usage fees for some integrations. The integration fee is to cover the costs of maintaining and syncing your data to third party solutions.
