Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as a "deployment"?

A deployment is a unique production environment running nself services. Development and staging environments do not count against your deployment limit.

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan?

Yes, you can upgrade at any time and the difference will be prorated. Downgrades take effect at the next billing cycle. Contact us if you have specific questions about plan changes.

What happens if I exceed my developer limit?

You'll receive a notification when approaching your limit. You can add additional developer seats or upgrade your plan. We won't automatically charge you - we'll work with you to find the right solution.

Do you offer discounts for startups or non-profits?

Yes! Early-stage startups (pre-Series A) may qualify for a 50% discount. Registered non-profits and educational institutions can use nself for free under our community program. Contact us for details.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards, ACH transfers, and wire transfers for annual payments. Enterprise customers can arrange invoicing with NET-30 terms.

Is there a refund policy?

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee for all new subscriptions. If you're not satisfied within the first 30 days, contact us for a full refund.
