Storing your payment method
Overview
This article describes how to store the payment method for your own Kyvento invoice — that is, the payment for your Kyvento plan. (How your end customers pay you is configured separately under "Settings" → "Payments".)
The billing page
In the sidebar under "Account", open "Billing". There you'll find:
- Your active plan or the status of your trial, including quota usage
- Your payment methods
- Your invoice history with PDF download and e-invoice XML
- a preview of your next invoice
Add a payment method
- In the payment methods area, click "Add payment method".
- In the secure payment form, choose between credit card and SEPA direct debit and enter your details. Processing runs through our payment service provider Stripe — your payment data never reaches Kyvento in plain text.
- Confirm with "Confirm payment method".
Trial and plan selection
Your trial runs for 14 days with restricted quotas. Here's what happens afterwards:
- Choose a plan via "Choose plan" — either as a reservation (billing then starts only at the end of the trial) or as an immediate booking. Your account continues seamlessly.
- Without a plan selection, Kyvento grants a grace period of 3 days after the trial and reminds you by email during that time. After that, the account is paused.
- The pause is lifted automatically as soon as you book a plan and the first payment is successful — your data is of course retained throughout.
