Billing
Billing + Refund Policy
Last updated · 21 April 2026Version · 2026.04-rev1Governing law · Republic of Ghana
This policy governs how Vedge charges tenants and how we handle refunds, failed payments, and chargebacks. It sits alongside §6 of the Terms of Service.
1. Billing cycle + currency
- Billing is monthly in advance. Annual commitments are available on request at a discount.
- Default currency is GHS for Ghanaian tenants, NGN for Nigerian tenants (on launch), and USD for tenants billed internationally.
- Payment rails — Paystack (GH / NG), Flutterwave (pan-African), Stripe (international). Mobile money is supported through Paystack and Flutterwave; cards through all three.
2. Pro-ration + mid-cycle changes
- Upgrading a plan or enabling a paid add-on mid-cycle: charged at sign-up for the remainder of the cycle, pro-rated to the day.
- Downgrading a plan: the new price applies from the next cycle. No partial refund of the current cycle.
- Cancelling an add-on: stays active until the end of the current cycle. No partial refund.
3. Failed payments + grace
- We retry a failed recurring charge up to 3 times over 7 days.
- Day 1 of failure: email reminder + dashboard banner to the tenant admin.
- Day 8 of failure (grace ended): Service is suspended. Tenant and Authorised Users can log in to export data and update payment; clinical workflows are paused.
- Day 38 (30 days suspended): Service is fully suspended and the tenant enters the data-export window; after that window, data is deleted per the DPA.
4. Refunds
SaaS fees are non-refundable except where:
- Termination follows a material breach by Vedge — pro-rata refund of the unused portion of the current cycle.
- A sub-processor change under the DPA is reasonably objected to and cannot be resolved — pro-rata refund of prepaid fees.
- Duplicate charges or obviously erroneous billing — full refund within 5 business days of verification.
5. Chargebacks
If a tenant initiates a chargeback on a card or mobile-money transaction without first contacting billing@tryvedge.com, the Service may be suspended pending resolution. A repeated pattern of chargebacks is a material breach of the Terms of Service §6.
6. Taxes
Prices quoted exclude VAT, NHIL, GETFund, and the COVID-19 Health Recovery Levy; we add them at the rate applicable on the invoice date. Ghanaian tenants with a tax-exemption certificate may submit it to billing@tryvedge.com for verification.
