2.2 Cancellation Policy. If you are using and have signed up for a subscription of the Services that provides for auto-renewal, you agree that Loan Atlas may, and authorize Loan Atlas to, through Loan Atlas’ third party credit card processing company, charge you automatically for the renewal, unless you notify Loan Atlas that you want to cancel or disable monthly auto-renewal. We require 30-days notice for cancellation in year 2+. By converting to a month-to-month subscription, you acknowledge that the total balance for the then current month is due regardless of cancellation of the renewal.

In the case of a chargeback, it will be your responsibility to demonstrate that you have fulfilled your installment obligations or have provided proof that cancellation was processed in compliance with the agreed terms Section 2.2 and 2.3 of this Agreement. We may use a third party credit card processing company, and you hereby agree to provide complete and accurate information to such credit card processing company as may be requested from time to time. You agree to update your billing and credit card information to keep it current and notify us and the third party credit card processing company if your credit card is cancelled.

Monthly installment payments are due on or before the monthly anniversary of the date you signed up. Access to the Platform (including, without limitation, coaching webinars, calls and events) will be revoked if payment is not received within thirty (30) days following the due date. All subscription payments—including any past due amounts—remain due and payable, even in the event of an early cancellation prior to the completion of the subscription term. No refunds will be issued for unused time or early termination. 

2.4 Sales Offers and Promotions. Loan Atlas may, from time to time, offer promotional discounts or special pricing on subscriptions or digital content. These offers may vary based on subscriber status and are subject to change at our sole discretion. Once a promotion ends or is modified, it cannot be retroactively applied to previous purchases.

The price applicable to your subscription will be the one in effect at the time of purchase. Promotions and discounts must be selected during checkout and cannot be applied after the transaction is completed.

Subscriptions purchased under a promotional rate will renew automatically at the discounted rate only if: The discount applied to the entire initial 1-month term, and the account remains active and in good standing.

If the discounted monthly subscription is canceled at any time after the first year, the discount will also be forfeited. Any future reactivation or new subscription purchase will be at the current pricing offered at the time of sign-up, and a new first-year term commitment will apply.
