Swap Credits Terms

Last Update: March 25, 2024

Our swap credits are offered subject to the following conditions:

Eligible plans

1.1

Plans that are eligible for switch credits are limited to our shared hosting plans, our business hosting plans, our reseller hosting plans and our WP Orbit (managed WordPress) plans.

02

Evidence of previous hosting

2.1

The evidence you submit will only be approved for swap credits if it shows all the following:

  • Details of your current provider, which must be one of our listed competitors
  • The name of the account holder (whether a person, a business or any other type of organisation) on the evidence provided must match the new account details you are setting up with us
  • The period you have a service for (which must include tomorrow)
  • The price paid for the period which must be in GBP
  • Proof of payment for the period
  • The domain name associated with the service
  • A unique identifier for the invoice from your current provider

Multiple documents may be required to satisfy these criteria. A receipted invoice is ideal but we may require an invoice, proof of payment and a screenshot from your account with your current provider.

If we consider any evidence that has been provided to us has been amended or tampered with in any way, we reserve the right to reject your application for switch credits.

03

05

Switch calculation

5.1

Subject to the above, the value of the swap credits will be calculated as a prorated amount for the unused period shown on your evidence from your current provider and will be credited to your Hostingly account based on the account charges listed on our website on the date of the switch credits being approved by us. The prorating will be calculated as shown on the calculator on our site.

06

Switch more than once
