Amount Payable
The amount payable NOW is calculated based on the number of days from the plugin activation date(today) to the next billing date of your Tagrain subscription. This means that if you activate a plugin somewhere in between your billing cycle, the application will prorate the “amount payable now” from today to the start of the next billing cycle.
Plugins in Tagrain are either Subscription Based or License Based. So the price that you pay for your plugins is based on the number of POS terminals that you have in your setup and the number of licences that you have acquired.
The subscription fee for Tagrain and its plugins is non-refundable. A plugin once purchased and activated, shall not be refunded. You may, however, choose to deactivate the plugin if you no longer want to use it. Upon deactivation, all the features and functionality added to the application upon plugin activation are removed. However, the application retains all the data pertaining to the plugin till the end of your current billing cycle. At the start of the next billing cycle, this data is purged from the application. However, in the case of payment processor plugins (Clover, Elavon, and Moneris) the data pertaining to these plugins is primarily associated with the reference numbers and auth numbers for the credit card transactions done, and so the data is retained and never purged from the application.
The plugin - Multiple Units of Measure, once activated, cannot be deactivated.
