How do automatic invoices and payment work?

At Hodi, billing for your services is automated so you can pay your renewals with complete peace of mind, without any service interruption. Here's how it works.

Automatic invoice generation

A renewal invoice is created and sent automatically by email before your service's due date, to give you time to pay it:

• Annual services: the invoice is generated 60 days before the due date.
• Monthly services: the invoice is generated 15 days before the due date.

You receive the invoice by email as soon as it is created, followed by automatic reminders for as long as it remains unpaid. You can find all your invoices in your Client Area, under "My invoices".

Automatic payment

If you have a payment method saved to your account (credit card, bank account, or PayPal) and automatic payment is enabled, Hodi attempts to settle your invoices automatically before the due date: you don't need to do anything.

• For annual invoices, a first round of attempts takes place 4 weeks before the due date, then, if unsuccessful, 3 weeks and 2 weeks before the due date.
• Starting 7 days before the due date, a new attempt is made every day for as long as the invoice remains unpaid.

As soon as a payment succeeds, the invoice is marked as paid and a receipt is sent to you by email.

Enable or disable automatic payment

To enable or disable automatic payment, or to update the payment method saved to your account, contact our customer support. If automatic payment is disabled (or if you pay by bank transfer), it is your responsibility to pay each invoice manually before the due date.

Tip: to avoid any service interruption, make sure your saved card is still valid, especially before an annual renewal.
