How Blinq Business billing works

Blinq Business charges per card seat rather than a flat team fee. Here's exactly how the minimum, monthly proration, and annual billing work in practice.

What you can do

  • Track your bill against the number of active cards in your workspace

  • Add cards mid-cycle and see the charge prorated to your renewal date

  • Remove cards without being charged again until your next renewal

  • Choose your starting card count during signup, before your first payment


Who can use this

Any Blinq Business team, on monthly or annual billing.


How billing works

  1. At the start of your billing cycle, you're charged for every active card in your workspace.

  2. A minimum charge equal to 5 cards applies to every Business subscription, regardless of billing cycle.

  3. Add cards mid-cycle and they're billed pro-rata, from their date of creation to your monthly anniversary (annual plans) or your monthly renewal date (monthly plans).

  4. Remove a card mid-cycle and its seat stays open at no extra charge. Assign a new card to that seat and you won't pay twice for it.

  5. If your card count drops during a cycle, your bill resets to match your current active card count at renewal.

Note: An active card includes any card that's been created and not deleted, even if the recipient hasn't claimed it yet. Unclaimed cards still count toward your seat total, because their QR code and link are already live and shareable.


Signing up

If you select more cards than the 5-card minimum during signup or your trial, you're charged for whichever is higher: the number you selected, or your active card count at the end of the trial.


FAQ
