Managing Your Subscription
Billing Portal
Click Manage Billing on the Plan & Billing page to open the Stripe Customer Portal. From there you can:
- View invoices and download receipts.
- Update payment method (credit/debit card).
- Change plan — upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes take effect at the next billing cycle.
- Cancel subscription — your plan stays active until the end of the current billing period.
Upgrading
When you upgrade mid-cycle, you're prorated — you only pay the difference for the remaining days in your billing period.
Downgrading
When you downgrade, the change takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle. You keep your current plan's benefits until then.
Canceling
If you cancel, your plan remains active until the end of the billing period. After that, you revert to the Free plan. Your save data, favorites, and library codes are preserved.
Payment Methods
PlayRen accepts all major payment methods through Stripe:
- Credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)
- Some regional payment methods depending on your location
Billing Questions
- Charges appear as "PlayRen" or "play.ren.bd" on your statement.
- Billing cycle starts on the day you subscribe and renews monthly.
- Failed payments are retried automatically by Stripe. You'll receive an email notification if payment fails.
For billing issues, visit the Contact page or reach out through the support system in your dashboard.
