Contests, Sweepstakes and Promotions
Any contests, sweepstakes or other promotions (collectively, “Promotions”) made available through Service may be governed by rules that are separate from these Terms of Service. If you participate in any Promotions, please review the applicable rules as well as our Privacy Policy. If the rules for a Promotion conflict with these Terms of Service, Promotion rules will apply.
Subscriptions
Some parts of Service are billed on a subscription basis (“Subscription(s)”). 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.
At the end of each Billing Cycle, your Subscription will automatically renew under the exacta same conditions unless you cancel it or Writesonic, Inc. cancels it. You may cancel your Subscription renewal either through your online account management page or by contacting Writesonic, Inc. customer support team.
A valid payment method, including credit card or PayPal, is required to process the payment for your subscription. You shall provide Writesonic, Inc. with accurate and complete billing information including full name, address, state, zip code, telephone number, and a valid payment method information. By submitting such payment information, you automatically authorize Writesonic, Inc. to charge all Subscription fees incurred through your account to any such payment instruments.
Should automatic billing fail to occur for any reason, Writesonic, Inc. will issue an electronic invoice indicating that you must proceed manually, within a certain deadline date, with the full payment corresponding to the billing period as indicated on the invoice.
Free Trial
Writesonic, Inc. may, at its sole discretion, offer a Subscription with a free trial for a limited period of time (“Free Trial”).
You may be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for Free Trial.
If you do enter your billing information when signing up for Free Trial, you will not be charged by Writesonic, Inc. until Free Trial has expired. On the last day of Free Trial period, unless you cancelled your Subscription, you will be automatically charged the applicable Subscription fees for the type of Subscription you have selected.
At any time and without notice, Writesonic, Inc. reserves the right to (i) modify Terms of Service of Free Trial offer, or (ii) cancel such Free Trial offer.
Fee Changes
Writesonic, Inc., in its sole discretion and at any time, may modify Subscription fees for the Subscriptions. Any Subscription fee change will become effective at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle.
At any time and without notice, Writesonic, Inc. reserves the right to (i) modify Terms of Service of Free Trial offer, or (ii) cancel such Free Trial offer.
Your continued use of Service after Subscription fee change comes into effect constitutes your agreement to pay the modified Subscription fee amount.
Refunds
We issue refunds for Contracts within seven (7) days of the original purchase of the Contract with the condition that your words usage is less than 5000 Premium quality or equivalent words for any plans.
Fair Usage Policy (FUP)
As part of our commitment to providing a high-quality, fast and reliable service, Writesonic has a Fair Use Policy (also referred to as the FUP) despite time to time launched unlimited credits/words plans to prevent excessive use of our service. We expect every user to use this tool in a reasonable and responsible manner and there are some limits and restrictions that OpenAI, our partner company, requires and every user is required to follow these guidelines mentioned below.
We assure that our fair usage policy allows genuine users to fulfil their daily and monthly usage requirements comfortably despite fulfilling certain conditions mentioned below. We further assure that the provision of our services works fairly for everyone and with the best possible user experience. This should always mean the quality of service to every user, in an even-handed and equitable way. Overusing the service by one user may affect usage speed and quality of other users.
By using this service, you are committed to choose a plan according to your profession and business size. If you are having very high usage, you should switch over to the next higher plan or ask us for a custom plan or use our business API.
It is our intent to prevent automated and robotic behaviour and ensure the safety of our service and that of our partners. To check any misuse of our services in our earlier credit based unlimited plans, we assume that in our Professional, Startup and Agency plans, users will not make articles/blog posts using our AI Article Writer 1.0 and 2.0 more than 20 numbers, 40 numbers and 80 numbers per day respectively. Any usage higher than these limits will not be considered as normal usage. But our AI may give some flexibility in these limits seeing the overall usage pattern of any users in previous and present months.
Additionally, our AI engine restricts some kinds of use cases such as distributing their unlimited account login details to others in lieu of monetary gains and considers such activities as illegal activities. One seat is basically for one user only and multiple users in one login account are not permitted. Thus, our system identifies such behaviour and automatically adjusts certain parameters temporarily based on abnormal, heavy usage patterns within a short period of time. When such activity is detected by the system, you might notice a decline in quality of the output. This usually resolves itself with the renewal of your monthly cycle.
Additionally, for any abnormally high usage and for any illegal activity of sharing login details of your account with others, your account may be blocked or permanently deleted without any notice. No claim of any sort in this regard will be accepted and no refunds will be issued. By using our service, you commit us that any of your claim/dispute in this regard raised by you or by your bank will be automatically rejected.

Our AI service provider “Open AI” does not permit the generation of sexual, religious and political content and hence you are strictly prohibited from generating any such content. If even by mistake, you try to generate such content, our system will give you an error message of “Unsafe Content” the first time and this is to be considered the final warning. If you try to generate such content again, your subscription will be cancelled and you will be debarred from using our services again and no refunds will be issued.

Use Service in any manner that could disable, overburden, damage, or impair Service or interfere with any other party’s use of Service, including their ability to engage in real time activities through Service.
