- Cancellations made during an active billing period
- Partial use of features or services
- Dissatisfaction with the platform or services
- Changes in business needs or requirements
Fee Disclosure: Resident online payments include a platform transaction fee in addition to Stripe processing fees. Current rates are 0.75% (with a $5.00 minimum) for PMC-managed HOAs and 1.25% for standalone HOAs.
