3. Subscriptions and Billing
Some parts of the Service are billed on a subscription basis. You will be billed in advance on a recurring and periodic basis (“Billing Cycle”). Billing cycles are set either on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the type of subscription plan you select when purchasing a subscription.

A valid payment method, including credit card or through the relevant app store (Apple App Store or Google Play Store), is required to process the payment for your subscription. All payments are processed through Apple's App Store or Google Play, and are subject to their respective terms and conditions.
4. Free Trial
Nesteia UG may, at its sole discretion, offer a subscription with a free trial for a limited period of time. You may be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for the free trial. If you do enter your billing information when signing up for a free trial, you will not be charged by Nesteia UG until the free trial has expired.
