One-time monthly payments, real-time bank transfers, and virtual account payments are not supported. Eligible cards are as indicated on the payment screen. For corporate customers with a separate written agreement, payment methods, billing cycles, and payment terms are governed by that agreement.
Payments are processed through a payment gateway (PG) provider. The Company does not directly store detailed payment method information such as card numbers. Payment approval information, transaction identifiers, and recurring payment identifiers processed by the Company are governed by the Privacy Policy.
When the User selects a plan, registers a card, and subscribes to recurring payments, the fee for that plan is charged and subsequent payments are made monthly until the subscription ends. Before the recurring payment subscription is submitted, the Company informs the User of the amount, billing cycle, and cancellation and refund conditions and obtains the User’s consent.
and the cancellation request must be completed at least 7 days prior to the next billing date.Article 9 governs subscription cancellation requests and when cancellation takes effect. Article 10 governs payment cancellations and refunds.
Once payment is completed, the Company issues a payment confirmation email and an electronic tax invoice (or receipt) to the User.
Users may pay the usage fee using any of the following methods.
A. Credit Card / Debit Card: Payment through major domestic and international card companies
B. Account Transfer: Real-time account transfer
C. Virtual Account: Deposit into a virtual account issued by the Company
Payments are processed through a PG (Payment Gateway) company, and the Company does not directly store payment-related personal information (card numbers, account numbers, etc.).
Users may select one of the following two payment methods.
A. Short-term payment (1 month): A method of paying the usage fee for the corresponding month in a lump sum
B. Regular Subscription: A method in which payments are automatically billed each month using the payment method registered by the user. Users may cancel their regular subscription at any time,
and the cancellation request must be completed at least 7 days prior to the next billing date.In the case of virtual account payments, the virtual account will automatically expire if the deposit deadline (3 business days from the date of issuance) passes.
Upon completion of the payment, the Company shall issue a payment confirmation email and an electronic tax invoice (or receipt) to the user.
Article 8 (Billing and Payment of Fees)
The monthly subscription fee is automatically charged to the registered card each month based on the date of the first paid transaction. The start date of the free trial is not used as the recurring billing
For a recurring subscription, if the scheduled payment date does not exist in a given month, payment will be made on the last day of that month.
If payment fails due to insufficient funds, exceeded card limits, or similar reasons, the Company will notify the User. If payment is not successfully retried within five business days after notice, use of the Service may be temporarily suspended.
If fees remain unpaid, use of the Service may be restricted until the outstanding amount is paid.
The monthly subscription fee is billed regularly every month based on the service start date.
In the case of a regular subscription, if the payment date does not exist in the applicable month, the payment will be processed on the last day of that month.
If the user's payment fails due to reasons such as insufficient balance in the payment method or exceeding the card limit, the Company will notify the user, and if repayment is not made within 5 business days after notification, the use of the service may be suspended.
If unpaid usage fees occur, service use may be restricted until the user pays the unpaid amount.
Article 9 (Service Cancellation and Termination)
Users of online subscriptions may request cancellation at any time through My Page within the Service or the customer support center (email: info@watanow.com). For corporate customers with a separate written agreement, cancellation conditions and procedures are governed by that agreement.
If cancellation is requested within seven days of the payment date for the relevant billing cycle, the subscription is terminated during that cycle and a refund is issued after deducting the amount proportional to the days of use in accordance with Article 10. If cancellation is requested after that period, the User may continue using the Service until the end of the current paid subscription period. The subscription will then terminate automatically in accordance with the cancellation request received, and no payment will be made for the next billing cycle.
Cancellation and settlement of initial setup costs (including digital twin map creation, platform configuration, and system integration) are governed by the scope of services actually performed, applicable law, and the individual contract terms disclosed in advance. A full refund is provided for cancellation before work begins. The User’s rights to withdraw, rescind or terminate the contract, or receive a refund under applicable law or due to causes attributable to the Company are not restricted.
If cancellation is requested during the WATON View free trial period of 30 days, no service fee is charged for that free trial.
Users can apply to cancel the service (cancel the subscription) at any time. Cancellation requests can be made through My Page within the service or via the Customer Center (Email: info@watanow.com).
Applications for subscription cancellation must be completed at least 7 days before the next payment date, and if the cancellation request is completed, the service will be terminated at the end of the current subscription period.
Initial setup costs (digital twin map creation, platform setup, system integration, etc.) are in principle non-cancelable and non-refundable once the service has commenced, due to the nature of the service. However, in the case of cancellation prior to commencement, a full refund will be provided.
No separate fees will be charged if you apply to cancel during the free trial period (30 days).
Article 10 (Refund Policy)
If a User of an online subscription requests cancellation within seven days of the payment date for the relevant billing cycle and has not used the Service at all, the full payment for that cycle is refunded. If the Service has been used in part, a refund is issued after deducting the amount proportional to the days of use. For corporate customers with a separate written agreement, refund conditions are governed by that agreement, without limiting statutory refund rights.
The prorated refund is calculated by deducting the amount attributable to the period of use from the amount actually paid for the relevant billing cycle. Refund = amount actually paid for the cycle − (amount actually paid for the cycle ÷ total days in the subscription period for that cycle × days of use).
An ordinary subscription cancellation requested more than seven days after the payment date takes effect at the end of the subscription period under Article 9. As the Service remains available for the remaining period, no refund is provided for that remaining period. However, any refund requirements under applicable law or due to causes attributable to the Company take precedence.
If the Service is not provided normally due to causes attributable to the Company, such as server outages or service errors, the Company reduces or refunds the fee in proportion to the duration of the disruption. This does not limit the User’s other rights under applicable law.
Refunds are generally processed by fully or partially reversing the charge to the original card. Where a withdrawal or other cancellation falls under the Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, Etc., the Company refunds the payment within three business days of the legally prescribed starting date and takes necessary measures, including suspension or cancellation of payment claims, as appropriate for the payment method. The time when the refund appears in the card transaction history or statement may vary according to the card issuer’s processing schedule.
Refund requests may be submitted by email (info@watanow.com) or through the customer support center (031-707-3717).
The general refund rules in this Article do not restrict the User’s statutory rights to withdraw, rescind or terminate the contract, or receive a refund. Applicable statutory requirements take precedence.
The service is a digital content (subscription SaaS service) pursuant to Article 17 of the 「Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, etc.」 and Article 28 of the 「Content Industry Promotion Act」, and the following refund policy applies.
A. Refund Policy
① If you have not used the service at all within 7 days from the payment date, a full refund of the payment amount will be issued.
② If you have partially used the service within 7 days from the payment date, a refund will be issued after deducting an amount proportional to the number of days used,
and the refund amount is calculated as follows: Refund Amount = Payment Amount – (Payment Amount ÷ Number of days in the corresponding month × Number of days used)③ No refunds are available after 7 days from the payment date.
However, this excludes cases where the service is not provided due to reasons attributable to the Company.④ In the case of regular subscriptions, refunds for the remaining period based on the time of cancellation will not be provided.
(According to the characteristics of digital content services that have already started being provided)
In the event that the service is not normally provided due to reasons attributable to the Company (server failure, service error, etc.), the fee will be reduced or refunded in proportion to the duration of the failure.
Refunds are, in principle, processed using the same payment method used at the time of purchase (card cancellation, bank transfer refund, etc.), and refund processing may take up to 5 to 10 business days.
Please submit refund requests via email (info@watanow.com) or through the customer center (031-707-3717).
