Changing or cancelling your plan

  1. Go to Billing > Plan.
  2. Click Change plan.
    • Upgrades take effect immediately, and you are charged the difference for the rest of the period.
    • Downgrades take effect at the next renewal date. If you have more active listings than the new plan allows, you will be asked to choose which ones to close.
  3. To cancel, click Cancel plan at the bottom of the page. Your listings stay live until the end of the paid period.

Downloading invoices

Every payment creates an invoice in PDF format.

  1. Open Billing > Invoices.
  2. Find the invoice by date or number. Invoice numbers follow the format HW-2026-004812.
  3. Click Download PDF.

To have invoices sent to your finance team automatically, add their address under Billing > Invoice recipients. You can add up to three addresses.

Tip: Need your purchase order number on the invoice? Add it under Billing > Tax details > PO number before the payment is made. We can’t add it to invoices that have already been issued.

VAT and sales tax

How tax is calculated depends on where your business is registered and whether you have given us a valid tax number.

Your location VAT number provided What you pay
Netherlands Yes or no Plan price + 21% Dutch VAT
Other EU country Yes, validated Plan price, reverse charge applies
Other EU country No Plan price + VAT at your country’s rate
United Kingdom Yes or no Plan price + 20% UK VAT
United States Not applicable Plan price + state sales tax where required
Rest of world Not applicable Plan price, no tax added

Adding your VAT number

  1. Go to Billing > Tax details.
  2. Enter your registered business name and address exactly as they appear on your VAT registration.
  3. Enter your VAT number, including the country prefix, for example DE123456789.
  4. Click Validate and save. We check EU numbers against the VIES database, which usually takes a few seconds.

The reverse charge applies from the next invoice onward. We can’t reissue past invoices without VAT. If you have a question about a specific charge, please contact the billing team with the invoice number.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I change my billing currency?

    Yes, but only between billing periods. Go to Billing > Plan, choose a new currency, and it will apply from your next renewal date.

  • Why was VAT added to my invoice?

    VAT is added when we don't have a valid VAT number for your business, or when your business is in the same country as our billing entity. Add your VAT number under Billing > Tax details to apply the reverse charge.

  • Can I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?

    Monthly plans are not refunded for unused days, but your listings stay live until the end of the period you paid for. Quarterly and yearly plans can be refunded pro rata within 14 days of renewal.

  • Can I pay by bank transfer?

    Bank transfer is available on yearly Growth and Pro plans. Choose Pay by invoice at checkout, and payment is due within 30 days.

  • Who issues the invoices?

    Invoices are issued by HireWise B.V., registered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The company details and our VAT number appear at the top of each invoice.
