How do I pay based on the number of visits?
You buy credits, where one credit = one unique visit. You choose the amount of purchased credits at your own discretion.
How do I make a payment?
You can order credit after logging in to your account, we support payments by bank transfer and credit card.
Can I have a monthly fee instead of credits?
Yes, we will be happy to tailor the offer of lump sum payments according to the expected traffic to your site.
