Billing troubleshooting
Paid but credits or tier not updated
- Wait 1–2 minutes—Stripe webhooks can lag slightly.
- Open Hub → Pricing with
?transaction=successif you just returned from checkout (forces refresh in some layouts). - Confirm you purchased while the intended organization was active.
- Check Stripe receipt email for success.
Subscription status
Use Manage billing / customer portal from Pricing or Settings when available. Cancellations and payment method updates happen in Stripe’s portal (web) or the App Store (iOS), depending on where you subscribed.
Ask Ration can report live subscription tier, renewal or end date, and credit balance via get_billing_summary. For changes (cancel, update payment method), it directs you to Manage billing in Settings or the App Store — it does not mutate billing in chat. If chat and the app disagree, the app wins—refresh Settings or Pricing and update support docs if needed.
Wrong amount charged
Compare Stripe receipt line items to Pricing in-app. For disputes, use Stripe or your card issuer per their policies; Ration support can explain product mapping but cannot override processor decisions.
Tax or currency
Checkout shows final currency and tax as configured in Stripe. If something looks off, screenshot the checkout summary (redact card) for support.
What to send support
- Email on the account
- Approximate time of purchase
- Organization name
- Whether you used checkout vs portal
- Never send full card numbers, CVC, or API keys
