Frequently asked questions

How do I know my top-up was received?

Stripe top-ups credit instantly. Bank transfers credit within a few hours after we confirm receipt of the screenshot you send us on WhatsApp.

Can I set up recurring top-ups?

Not automatically yet. You manually top up via Stripe or bank transfer. Most clients top up monthly with a target balance buffer.

What happens if I top up the wrong amount?

Contact us on WhatsApp. We can refund or hold the excess on your balance for future orders.

Are there minimum or maximum top-up amounts?

Stripe minimum: $20. No maximum on Stripe but very large top-ups (over $5,000) are smoother via bank transfer to avoid card limits.

Do you accept PayPal?

Not at this time. Stripe and bank transfer only.

Will I get an invoice for my top-up?

Yes. Invoices are generated automatically and available in the Billing section of your dashboard.
