How billing works — why Ordinary is monthly-only

Ordinary’s paid plans are billed monthly only. There’s no annual plan, and no annual discount.

Do you offer annual billing?

No. Every paid plan is a single monthly charge.

The reason is simple: your plan price scales with your store’s revenue. Bigger stores pay more; smaller stores pay less. That kind of usage-based pricing is billed monthly — Shopify charges it on your regular monthly Shopify bill — so there’s no annual option to choose and no “pay yearly to save” discount.

What you’re charged

  • One monthly charge per paid plan.
  • The amount reflects the revenue tier your store is currently in. As your store grows into a higher tier, the monthly price moves up to match; if it settles back down, so does the price.
  • Free is always $0/mo.

See Understanding your plan for the full plan ladder and Understanding your GMV tier for how the revenue tiers work.

Cancellation

You can cancel any time — Settings → Billing → Change plan → Free.

  • You keep paid access through the end of the current monthly cycle.
  • No further charges after that.
  • Your historical data and integrations stay intact, and reappear if you upgrade again later.
