Payment and Refund Terms

  2. Accounts are billed at the beginning of each monthly billing period, except those accounts that have paid in advance for a committed period in excess of one month, and such charges are non-refundable. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of Service or for prepaid plan unused months. No exceptions will be made to this rule in order for us to treat all of our customers fairly.
  3. ShopKeep by Lightspeed may charge a monthly dormant fee for accounts with zero active registers in order for ShopKeep by Lightspeed to continue to provide certain support services to accounts with zero active registers but are not terminated.

When the account chooses to become active again, the account will be billed at the current prevailing monthly rate displayed on the ShopKeep by Lightspeed website for accounts that pay month-to-month without a contract.
