Subscription Activation

Mention offers multiple self-service subscriptions that you can purchase at any time through the pricing website or from your Subscription page.

If you are intending to purchase a new subscription for a new account and email, you will need to use the pricing website. After a new subscription is purchased, Mention will automatically activate your subscription and unlock the new features you purchased:

If you already have an account and seek to modify your plan to a new subscription, you will need to access your Subscription tab and click on Upgrade Your Plan. When you modify your subscription, your new features on the account will be activated and your mentions quota will reset:

Subscription Billing

You have the option of subscribing to a monthly or yearly plan depending on your preference. You also have the option of modifying your subscription to a different billing cycle when you adjust your plan.

  • If you purchased a monthly subscription, your account will automatically be renewed every 30 days for the subscription. Mention will charge the primary credit card that is on file for your account.

  • If you purchased a yearly subscription, your account will be automatically renewed on the following year of your purchase date. Mention will charge the primary credit card on file.

  • If you intend to change your subscription to a new plan, you will be given the option to choose the billing option of monthly or yearly.

❗️At this time, Mention does not allow you to change the billing cycle of your current subscription. For example, if you subscribed to a Pro Plan with monthly billing, then you cannot change this plan to yearly billing.

Please contact [email protected] if you want to change the billing frequency.

What To Do If Your Payment Fails

We've enhanced our payment update and retry process to make managing billing easier and more transparent. These improvements are available to all Mention users with active accounts on credit card-based plans. Note that these updates don’t apply to users paying via bank transfer.

What happens when my payment fails?

  1. Automated Payment Notifications
    Based on your payment status, you'll receive emails reminding you to update your payment details or retry failed payments.

  2. Retry Payment Button
    If your payment fails, you’ll find a "Retry Payment" button on your Billing Settings page. Clicking this button will initiate an automatic attempt to process your payment.

  3. Automatic Payment Collection
    When you update your credit card details, the system will automatically retry the payment using the new information without additional steps.

  4. Clear Error Messaging
    Should your payment fail, the exact reason (e.g., insufficient funds) will now be displayed directly in the app, helping you understand the issue and take corrective action.

    Mention will try to collect payment for 12 consecutive days. After that time, the subscription will automatically cancel.

    If you have clicked "retry payment," tried updating your card details, and your payment is still failing, please contact [email protected]




    If you have any questions regarding your Mention subscription, please do not hesitate to contact [email protected]. Thank you!
