Mobile app
Can I buy a premium design or a plan in the app?

In short
On Android, Pay and publish opens the website's checkout in a sheet and the app publishes once the payment clears. On iPhone, premium items read Premium with the plan that includes them, and plans are managed on nimanto.com, unless in-app purchase is switched on. Cancelling works everywhere.
Apple and Google each set rules on selling inside an app, so what the Nimanto app can sell depends on your phone. The prices and rules are the website's; only what the app may show and do differs.
On Android
- Premium designs, envelopes and effects show their price as information.
- At publish, Pay and publish opens the website's checkout in a browser sheet. The app waits, then publishes by itself once the payment settles: "The payment came through. Publishing your invitation now."
- Plans can be started, upgraded, changed to yearly or cancelled, and promo codes entered, by handing off to the website in the same way.
On iPhone
- Premium items read Premium and Included from the plan that includes them, with no amount shown.
- At publish, the Premium items card offers a way on instead of a payment: Choose a free design, Use the design's own envelope or Use the design's own effect. To publish with the premium design, pay on the website and the app follows.
- Plans are shown for information. You can Cancel a plan, Keep one and Resume a cancelled one, but starting or changing a plan is done on nimanto.com.
In-app purchase, where it is on
Where Nimanto has switched on in-app purchase, the app sells through Apple or Google Play directly: a premium design, envelope or effect, the card style add-on, an extra date change, and the paid plans billed yearly.
- Unlock shows the item and one button with the store's price in your currency. The phone's own payment sheet confirms it.
- A plan bought this way renews and is cancelled in the phone's subscription settings. The website's billing page says so.
- Restore purchases under Account re-reads anything bought with your Apple ID or Google account.
- Refunds are given by Apple or Google; what the purchase unlocked is taken back when they refund.
- Promo codes do not apply to in-app purchases, and a plan bought on the website cannot be bought again in the app.
Receipts
Every payment, wherever it was made, is listed under Account → Plan in the app and under Payments & billing on the website. Receipts are always e-mailed.
See Paying in the mobile app for the plan side, and the pricing page for what each plan includes.
