Plans and billing

Amal has two plans, Standard and Pro. Both are one-time payments handled by Stripe.

Key Takeaways

  • Standard ($249 once) gives you the Grow and Save funds on both brokers, Alpaca and Trading 212
  • Pro ($999 once) adds thousands of other ETFs and mutual funds, custom fund investing, and priority support
  • The extra funds in Pro are available through Alpaca only. Trading 212 pies are built from Grow and Save on both plans
  • Billing and receipts live in the Stripe portal, reached from Settings → Account → Manage

Managing billing

The account page shows your plan with a Manage button. It opens the Stripe customer portal where you can download receipts and update your details.

Refunds and cancelling

Because plans are one-time payments there is nothing recurring to cancel. Your broker account and holdings are yours regardless of plan. If you want a refund, email [email protected] within 14 days of purchase.

Common problems

Paid but the plan has not changed. Stripe's confirmation can lag by a minute. Sign out and in again. If it persists, send us the receipt.

Card declined. Stripe shows the bank's reason. International cards work; some banks block first-time online payments until you approve them in their app.
