How much does annual actually save?

In India, a year of Pro paid monthly costs ₹1,299 × 12 = ₹15,588; the annual plan is a ₹4,999 one-time payment — ₹10,589 less, about ₹417/month, with no auto-renew mandate on your UPI. Elsewhere, monthly costs $12.99 × 12 = $155.88/year versus $99/year on annual — $56.88 less, about $8.25/month. Beyond price: dasha periods and major transits play out over months, not weeks, so a year is the natural unit for actually watching a prediction resolve.

The astrological reason a month is too short

Saturn spends about two and a half years in a sign; Jupiter about a year; a Vimshottari Antardasha typically runs many months. A monthly subscription shows a slice of a story mid-sentence — a year covers a full cycle of transits over your Moon and usually at least one meaningful dasha transition, and it keeps you around long enough to score tracked predictions hit, partial, or miss.

Already on monthly?

Profile → Upgrade to yearly schedules the switch at your renewal date: the monthly period you already paid for runs to its end, and annual billing starts the moment it expires — never a double charge, never a gap.

About discounts — the honest part

Every discount AskSoma offers is a one-time, first-period coupon. The recurring price itself never drops, for anyone. What the pricing page shows is what everyone pays.

Can I cancel an annual plan?

The India annual plan is a one-time payment for 365 days of Pro — there is no recurring mandate, so there is nothing to cancel; it simply ends unless you renew. Recurring annual subscriptions (card/Stripe) can be cancelled any time from your Profile in the same number of taps as subscribing; you keep access until the end of the paid period.

Can I pause instead of cancelling?

Yes — eligible recurring web subscriptions (Stripe or Razorpay, monthly or annual) can be paused for 30 days from your Profile. Billing stops during the pause and resumes automatically; the option lives right next to Cancel.

What is the refund policy?

Purchases are generally non-refundable except where the law requires otherwise — the full policy is Section 5 of our Terms of Service. Subscriptions bought through the App Store or Google Play follow Apple’s or Google’s own refund process. EU residents have the statutory 14-day withdrawal right described in the Terms.

If I see a discount, does the price stay discounted every year?

No, and we say this plainly: any discount AskSoma offers is a one-time, first-period coupon. The recurring price never drops — a “30% off” annual offer means 30% off your first year only, then the standard rate. We would rather tell you that here than surprise you at renewal.

I pay monthly — how do I switch to annual?

From your Profile, tap “Upgrade to yearly”. The switch is scheduled at your current renewal date, so you are never double-billed: your monthly plan runs to the end of the period you already paid for, and the annual plan starts the moment it ends. On iOS and Android the same button routes through the store’s own plan-change flow with its proration.

How this page was made

AskSoma publishes this page. The explanatory writing is AI-drafted — by Soma, the same AI astrologer that answers inside the app — and published by the AskSoma team. No individual human author is credited, because none wrote it.

The astrology is not written from memory: every chart position, dasha period and panchang timing AskSoma shows is computed with the Swiss Ephemeris on the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa. How we calculate.
