Questions about becoming VIP

Wed Nov 10, 2021 6:08 pm

Good day,

When I open opensubtitles.org I get a banner above my screen with a message about my adblocker. Following this remark it then states I can become VIP for €10. When I want to pay through PayPal, I get to the FlixTools Store. Here the amount is
"€13,45 yearly".

1. What is with the €3,45 difference?
2. Does "yearly" imply this donation is recurring on a yearly basis?
3. How is known which account is to be upgraded? Is the e-mailaddress you fill in in the FlixTools Store cross referenced with the e-mailaddress used for registration on opensubtitles.org?
4. And once VIP-status is obtained, is this usable on opensubtitles.com as well?
(Because when I tried to login with my account from opensubtitles.org I didn't succeed. I did check username/password multiple times. Perhaps I made a mistake many times... Or it just isn't possible.)

Thanks in advance!

>1. What is with the €3,45 difference?

we want people using crypto currencies, paypal is the worst company for this (high fees, blocking accounts...)

> 2. Does "yearly" imply this donation is recurring on a yearly basis?

when you using fastspring (where is also TAX added), then yes, it is recurring, but you can cancel subscription any time.

you can become VIP only if you are logged-in, so yes.

> 4. And once VIP-status is obtained, is this usable on opensubtitles.com as well?

yes
