13 plan / billing-period records, all listed; — means that period is not recorded.

[1] Credits valid for 1 month

[2] One annual payment; tax is calculated after billing address entry. Amount comes from checkout, not multiplication of rounded monthly equivalents.

All four annual charges were confirmed at checkout. Ultra $239.90/year and Ultra MAX $479.90/year differ from rounded monthly equivalents multiplied by 12. The feature FAQ advertises free removal and batch ZIP export without quantifying free counts/limits. Removal credit conversion and top-up expiry are not separately stated in reviewed pages. Tax depends on billing address.

Verification has gaps; unknown prices and quotas are not inferred.
