How we charge annual subscription fees

The size of the annual subscription fee is based on your company’s annual turnover. The information is retrieved from Creditsafe in connection with annual invoicing, which means that the fee is usually based on reported annual turnover two years back. The year you become a customer, you pay a subscription fee for the current month and the remaining months of the year. At the beginning of the following year, you will be invoiced for the entire year.
