Understanding your invoices

Each invoice shows:

• Billing period covered (e.g. “14 April 2026 – 14 May 2026”)
• Line items, tier name, price
• GST, GardenBuddy.au is GST-registered. GST is included in the price and itemised on invoices.
• Payment method, last 4 of your card
• Paid status with date
• Our ABN, 86 081 237 087 (Dutch Digital Dynamics Pty Limited)

Sample invoice breakdown

Line	Amount
Pro Annual membership (14 Apr 2026 – 14 Apr 2027)	$53.64
GST (10%)	$5.36
Total	$59.00

One timing note for a brand-new subscription: every paid plan starts with a 30 day $0 trial, so your first real charge lands when the trial ends, about a month after signup, not on the day you enter your card. Your first invoice reflects that.

If a payment fails

Stripe retries the card automatically several times over the following days; the fastest fix is updating your card on /my-account/.

1. A payment-failure email goes to your address when a charge fails.
2. If every retry fails, your membership is suspended, access to /my-garden/ revoked, garden data preserved.
3. Update your card at /my-account/membership-billing/. Access restores within 60 seconds of successful payment.

Common reasons a payment fails

• Card expired, replace with the new card you received from your bank
• Over credit limit, pay down the card or use a different one
• Bank fraud hold, call your bank to clear the transaction (Stripe charges appear as international processor)
• Card cancelled/stolen, update to the replacement card once you get it

GST and tax time

All invoices are GST-inclusive and carry our ABN. Print or download for your tax records.

Business use

If you use GardenBuddy.au for a business purpose:

• Market garden / CSA operator, subscription is a business expense, GST claimable if GST-registered
• Farmers’ market stallholder, same as above
• Food bloggers / recipe content using own produce, may qualify depending on income structure
• Consultants advising home growers, professional-development expense

Check with your accountant, we don’t give tax advice. But we provide properly-formatted GST invoices so whatever your accountant decides, you have the paperwork.

Corporate / bulk billing

Not currently supported. If you want to pay for a community garden, a school program, or a workshop series, email us, we handle these case-by-case with manual invoicing outside the normal PMPro / Stripe flow.

Typical cases:

• School garden program, 5–20 student accounts, teacher admin access
• Community garden, single shared account used by committee
• Workshop / training, temporary Pro access for attendees

What happens when you cancel

Cancelling stops the next charge. It does not refund what you have already paid. Your invoice history will show the charges you made and no reversal against them, which is expected rather than an error.

You keep full access until the end of the period you paid for. Cancel 4 months into an annual plan and GardenBuddy.au stays open to you until month 12, then the account drops back to free. Nothing further is billed.

If a charge on your statement genuinely looks wrong, that is a different matter. Send us the invoice date and amount from this page and we will look into it.
