Billing & Pricing FAQs

Current Availability
Can I use Be Here Meow for free?
Yes. The active Daily Reflection service is available for $0. Paid membership routes remain absent until Inner Garden is released.
Can I start or manage a paid subscription in the app?
After Inner Garden is released, open Account → Billing. The page offers Join Inner Garden and sends you to Stripe's hosted checkout. Existing members can open Stripe's customer portal from the same page.
Do not enter payment details into a support message. Be Here Meow does not collect card numbers directly.
What is Inner Garden?
Inner Garden is the optional $7-per-month membership. The core Daily Reflection journal remains available without a subscription. The Pricing and Billing pages show whether enrollment is currently enabled.
What happens after Stripe checkout?
Stripe sends a signed billing event to Be Here Meow. The Billing page reflects paid access after that event is verified and recorded; the browser's checkout return URL alone never grants access.
Existing Billing Questions
How do I ask about a historical charge or subscription?
Open Account → Billing to manage the subscription through Stripe. For a historical charge or anything the portal cannot resolve, use the contact page or email [email protected].
Will canceling delete my journal?
No. Canceling Inner Garden and deleting an account are separate actions. Account deletion explicitly cancels any Stripe customer subscription before permanently deleting the account and journal.
Are refunds or discounts available?
The app does not publish an automatic refund or discount workflow. Contact support with the relevant account and charge details so the request can be reviewed.
