Subscription and Billing

About 5 min

At Kanorio, website plans are applied to a single website rather than your entire account. However, your wallet balance, billing currency, and referral rewards are shared across your personal account for all your sites.

This category covers all rules regarding "subscribing to Kanorio plans, managing usage add-ons and invoices, and accessing education offers, referral commissions, and wallet credits." You can manage your daily website billing in the dashboard under "Website Settings › Subscription" and "Website Settings › Usage", while your wallet and referrals are located under "Account Settings" via your profile icon in the top right.

Not sure which plan to choose? If you want to compare the full specifications of the Free, Pro, and Business plans—including custom domains, storage, AI credits, monthly sending limits, and store platform fees (9% / 3% / 0%)—please read our guide for beginners.

Single Website vs. Personal Account: What is site-specific and what is shared?

When managing multiple websites, use the table below to quickly identify the level at which each benefit and billing setting applies:

Scope	Includes	Management Portal
Per Website	Plan level (Free/Pro/Business), billing cycle (billed monthly/annually), monthly AI credits (1,500/15,000), monthly email quota and add-ons, media storage and add-ons (Free plan shares 200 MB across all free sites in your account), historical invoices	Sidebar: "Site Settings > Billing" and "Usage". Storage add-ons are in the "Media Library".
Per Account	Default billing currency (8 supported currencies, locked after first payment), balance (automatically applied to eligible invoices across all your sites), verification, 150 trial AI credits and 200 MB storage shared by free sites, saved default credit card	Avatar menu: "Account Settings > Wallet / Refer a Friend"

Three Types of Charges on Your Bill

Base Website Plan Fee: The monthly or annual fee for subscribing to a Pro or Business plan (billed in advance for the next period).
Usage and Transaction Fees: Add-ons purchased by quantity, such as Email sending limits, storage space, and database collection entries (annual plans can be aligned to the annual billing cycle for a 5% discount), as well as online store monthly platform fees accumulated when using LINE Pay or JKO Pay. These fees are intelligently merged into your plan bill or charged once they reach a separate billing threshold (approx. US$5.00). See for details.
Custom Domain Registration and Renewal Fees (Billed Separately): If you purchase a dedicated domain (e.g., .com) directly through Kanorio, it is an independent asset registered annually with international registries and billed via a separate invoice. See for details.
