When am I billed for my subscription?

Understanding Scento subscription billing dates, payment timing, and how to update your payment method.

Written by Peter

How Billing Works

First Payment

Your first payment is charged immediately when you join SCENTO+.

New members currently receive:

✓ First month for €1.95
✓ Instant 10% off your first order
✓ Immediate access to member pricing and benefits

Your membership benefits activate right away.


Recurring Renewals

After joining, your membership renews automatically every month.

You'll be charged on the same date you originally subscribed.

Example:

Join March 15 → Renew April 15 → Renew May 15


End-of-Month Billing Dates

If you joined on the 29th, 30th, or 31st, some months may not have that date.

In those cases, your renewal moves to the last available day of the month.

Example:

Join January 31 → Renew February 28 (or 29)

Failed Payments

What Happens If Payment Fails?

If a renewal cannot be processed:

• We'll retry automatically
• You'll receive an email notification
• You may be asked to update payment details

To avoid interruption, update your payment method as soon as possible.


If Payments Continue Failing

After multiple failed attempts:

• Your membership may become inactive
• Member benefits may pause temporarily

You can reactivate anytime by updating your payment details.


Can I Change My Renewal Date?

Your renewal date is linked to the day you originally joined and usually cannot be changed manually.

If you'd prefer another billing date, you can:

• Cancel your membership
• Join again on your preferred date


Common Questions

Is there a yearly membership option?

Not currently.

We keep SCENTO+ monthly to give you complete flexibility.

Pause, cancel, or return anytime.


Why was I charged a different amount?

Possible reasons include:

• Promotional pricing ending after your first month
• Currency conversion by your bank
• Taxes or regional payment differences


Can I download invoices?

Yes.

Open Manage MembershipBilling History to access your invoices.


What time am I charged?

Renewals are processed on your billing date. The exact hour can vary.
