Subscription Plan Terms
1. Introduction
These subscription plan terms (the “Subscription Terms”) govern the certain subscription plans applicable for the use of the services provided through the website sendify.com (“Services”) by Sendify AB, reg. no 559102-5852 (“we”, “us” or “our”). The general use of the Services is governed by our General Terms. Depending on the subscription plan subscribed for, the specific terms applicable to such subscription plan as set forth below will apply. By creating an account and choosing a certain subscription plan, you will be bound the applicable Subscription Terms.
2. Subscription plans and access
You may select from available plans as detailed in the Services. The specific fees, features, and usage allowances (e.g., label limits) for each plan are accepted as presented when you choose your subscription plan.
The subscription plans are divided into three tiers: Basic, Plus and Pro. By default, every user starts on the Basic plan (the free tier) and may choose to upgrade to Plus or Pro for enhanced features. Below is a description of each such subscription plan.
Basic Plan (Free Tier)
- Subscription Fee: None. The Basic plan is offered at no monthly or annual cost.
- Included Services: Access to our standard discounted freight rates negotiated with carriers. Basic users can compare and book shipments using our pre-negotiated carrier contracts, benefiting from our standard rates. Basic users can also use the “Receiver Pays” functionality, allowing the shipment’s charges to be billed to the receiver or a third party.
- Excluded Features: The Basic tier does not include the ability to integrate “Own Agreement” (using your own carrier contract) into the Platform. This advanced features are unavailable in Basic.
- Per-Use Fees: Basic users may still access certain advanced services on a pay-per-use basis if offered. For example, using a Receiver Pays shipment (having the recipient pay the freight cost) might incur a platform fee per label. Any such transaction fees or surcharges for special services are outlined when utilized.
Plus Plan
Subscription Fee: The Plus plan is a paid subscription, available in either monthly or annual billing options. The exact subscription fee is stated when selecting the plan and may be paid monthly or yearly according to your choice.
Expanded Features: The Plus plan includes additional functionality beyond Basic. Notably, Plus users gain access to the “Own Agreement” integration, meaning they can book shipments using their own carrier contracts through the Platform (the “BYOC”). Plus also enables the “Receiver Pays” functionality, allowing the shipment’s charges to be billed to the receiver or a third party. In summary, a Plus user can use their own negotiated carrier rates on the Platform, a feature which Basic does not offer.
Usage Allowances: The Plus plan may come with certain included usage limits or fair-use allowances (for example, a number of shipment labels or orders included per month). Any such limits (and what counts as fair usage) are presented when you subscribe to the plan. This ensures that typical shipping volumes are covered under the subscription, while very high volumes remain subject to overage policies.
Additional Fees: If a Plus user’s shipping volume exceeds the plan’s included allowance, overage charges will apply for the extra shipments. For instance, shipments beyond the included number may incur a per-label fee as specified in the Platform. Additionally, certain features under Plus (such as using BYOC or Receiver Pays on a shipment) might carry a small platform fee per label, as detailed when utilized. All such fees are transparently presented so you know the costs of any extra usage.
Support: Plus plan users receive the standard customer support provided by us to all users. Any premium support offerings are reserved for the Pro tier as described below.
Pro Plan
Subscription Fee: The Pro plan is a customized enterprise subscription. Pricing and terms for Pro are not one-size-fits-all; instead, they are established on a case-by-case basis between the user and us. (for example, we may provide a quote or contract with custom pricing based on your shipping volume and requirements).
Features: Pro includes all the features of the Plus plan — including Own Agreement (BYOC) integration and the Receiver Pays billing option — and adds further enterprise-level benefits. Pro users can expect tailored solutions not available on the lower tiers. This may include advanced platform customizations, integration support, and any other specialized features needed to support high-volume or complex logistics operations. Essentially, the Pro plan is customizable to your shipping needs.
Dedicated Support: Pro subscribers receive enhanced support services. This typically means a dedicated account manager or priority support channel is provided by us to Pro users, ensuring quick, personalized assistance. The support is customized to the enterprise’s needs, going beyond the standard support available on the Basic or Plus plans.
Custom Terms: Other terms such as contract length, notice periods, or specific service-level commitments for Pro are individually set. Many Pro plans are annual agreements or longer, but the exact contract term and conditions are defined in your separate agreement with us.
3. General conditions for all plans
The provisions below are applicable for all subscription plans.
Plan Selection: All accounts are typically on the Basic plan by default upon sign-up. Upgrading to a Plus or Pro subscription is completely optional and can be done through your account settings or by contacting us for Pro. You will begin receiving the benefits of the new plan immediately upon upgrading.
Upgrades and Downgrades: You may upgrade or downgrade your subscription tier at any time. If you choose to upgrade to Plus or Pro, you agree to any applicable subscription fees and terms for that plan. If you decide to cancel a paid plan (or if a Pro contract term ends without renewal), your account will simply revert to the Basic (free) plan after the agreed term. In other words, when a Plus/Pro subscription is terminated or not renewed, the user can continue to use our Services on the Basic tier with no subscription fee. Each plan is subject to automatic renewal for the same duration (monthly or yearly) unless terminated on the last day of the current subscription period. This ensures uninterrupted access to the Platform’s core free features.
Pricing and fees: Full details on each plan’s current features, limitations, and pricing are presented when you subscribe to it. By selecting a plan, the Customer acknowledges the plan features and fees as described on the Pricing Page at that time. We may at any time change the pricing and fees of any of our Services and subscription plans. Your continued use of our Services will be deemed as an acceptance of such price changes. However, if you have prepaid any subscription plan, such prepaid fee will continue to apply during the term prepaid for. If there are any changes to fees or limits, we will typically update the information within the Platform and, if required, provide notice in accordance with the General Terms.
Payment terms:
Subscription fees are invoiced in advance according to the chosen billing cycle.
Transactional fees (for ”pay as you go” features) are invoiced based on your usage on a weekly basis.
Invoices are due 20 days after the invoice date. Failure to pay by the due date will incur a reminder fee of SEK 60 and penalty interest of 8% per annum plus the at each time applicable reference rate set by the Swedish Central Bank (Riksbanken).
To validly dispute an invoice, you must dispute it within 14 days after the invoice date. Unless an invoice is not disputed within such period it shall be deemed accepted.
