Card and PayPal payments are handled entirely by Stripe and PayPal — PCI DSS Level 1 processors. Crypto
settles on-chain. Bank transfers are reviewed by a human and activated automatically once approved.
Invoices are issued instantly for every payment and available in Billing with your VAT number applied.

Manual review
Bank transfer (SEPA & SWIFT)
Preferred by finance departments and required on most Enterprise contracts. You transfer, you upload the
receipt, we approve — and the system emails you the moment the plan goes live.
1Transfer & upload your receipt
Choose bank transfer at checkout to get our IBAN, BIC and a unique reference. Make the transfer,
then drag the bank confirmation (PDF, PNG or JPG) into the upload box on your order page.
2An admin reviews and approves
A member of our billing team matches the receipt against the reference and the incoming payment.
Reviews run every business morning and afternoon — typically within 4 working hours.
3Automated email, plan activated
Approval triggers an automatic confirmation email with your VAT invoice attached, and your quota
is unlocked instantly. If anything is missing we email you instead, with exactly what to fix.

Security
Four layers between you and a bad day
We are deliberately not in the business of holding card data. Everything sensitive lives with processors
who are audited for it.
SSL / TLS 256-bit
Every byte between your browser and imageseoking.net travels over TLS 1.3 with AES-256-GCM. HSTS is
enforced and the certificate is issued by a public CA with CT logging.

PCI DSS Level 1
Stripe and PayPal are certified Level 1 service providers, the strictest tier. Card numbers are
tokenised in their iframe; our database stores only a token and the last four digits.
Scope: zero cardholder data on our side
GDPR & EU residency
Billing records and uploaded images are stored in Frankfurt and Amsterdam. A signed DPA is available on
request, and you can export or erase your account data from Settings at any time.
DPA available · EU sub-processor list published
3-D Secure 2 / SCA
European cards are challenged through your bank's own app or one-time code. Liability for fraudulent
authenticated transactions shifts to the issuer — which is exactly where it belongs.

Refunds
Fourteen days, no interrogation
If Image SEO King isn't right for you, email contact@imageseoking.net
within 14 days of your first payment on any paid plan and we'll refund it in full. You don't have to explain
yourself, and nothing you've already processed is taken back.
Where the money goes backCard refunds land in 5–10 business days. PayPal is usually same-day. Bank transfers return to the originating IBAN. Crypto is refunded in the same asset at the original rate.
What isn't coveredRenewal periods after the first payment, custom Enterprise engagements already delivered, and accounts suspended for terms violations. Annual plans are refunded pro rata after day 14.
Downgrades & prorationUpgrades are charged pro rata immediately. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current period, so you keep what you paid for.
Enterprise billing
Purchase orders, custom terms, one invoice a year
Above 100,000 images a month we work on annual contracts with net-30 terms, consolidated invoicing across
sub-accounts, and your procurement paperwork completed by a human rather than a form.
No. The card field is a Stripe-hosted iframe, so the number goes directly from your browser to Stripe. We receive a reusable token plus the brand and last four digits, which is all we need to show you "Visa ···· 4242" in Billing.
Once your receipt is uploaded, we review twice each business day — typically within four working hours, and always within one business day. Approval fires an automatic activation email with your invoice attached. SEPA transfers themselves usually clear in one to two days; SWIFT can take three to five.
The quoted rate is locked for 15 minutes. If the transaction confirms after that window at a lower value, the difference is credited to your account balance rather than lost. Underpayments become account credit; overpayments are returned to the sending address within one business day.
Yes — Billing → Company details. Valid EU VAT numbers trigger the reverse-charge mechanism automatically, and past invoices can be reissued with the updated details on request.
USD by default, with EUR and GBP available at checkout. Prices are quoted excluding VAT, which is applied at your local rate where required. Enterprise contracts can be invoiced in additional currencies.
We retry three times over ten days and email you at each attempt. During that window your account drops to Free limits but nothing is deleted. Files follow the normal 30-day retention rule regardless of plan status, so you always have time to download.
Yearly billing costs the equivalent of ten months — two months free on every paid plan. You can switch between monthly and yearly at any time; the change is prorated against what you've already paid.
Try it before you pay anything.
