DigitalNation BMS — Subscription

Day 8. The trial ended.

You’ve been using BMS for a week. Customers, sales, stock — everything running smoothly. The dashboard is your morning ritual now.

Then a message appears:

“Your trial ends today.”

Two thoughts hit at once:

  1. What if I lose my data?
  2. How much will this cost?

You open the Subscription page. You see plans. You’re not sure which to pick. You’re not sure if the money is worth it.

And then you do nothing for a few days — hoping it will sort itself out.

It won’t. And this small delay costs you the account.

DigitalNation BMS (Business Management Software) keeps it simple.

Your subscription is a small monthly payment — and it buys you:

  • The full system — every feature, every module
  • Your data preserved — nothing lost
  • Continuous updates — new features as they come
  • DigitalNation Support — real people, fast response

Choose a plan. Pay. Continue.

Takes 2 minutes. No hidden charges. No contracts.

Plans — what’s available

When you open the Subscription page, you see:

Plan Duration Best for
Monthly 30 days Trying it out long-term
Quarterly 90 days Steady use — small discount
Annual 365 days Committed — biggest discount
Lifetime Forever One-time payment, done

Prices vary by business type — Mobile Shops, Electronics, Installments, Pesticides each have their own pricing.

You’ll see your exact price — based on the type you chose at registration.

What’s included in every plan

Whatever plan you choose, you get the same full system:

  • Unlimited customers
  • Unlimited products and stock
  • Unlimited sales and purchases
  • Installments with guarantors and cheques
  • Repair jobs and warranty tracking
  • Complete reports — P&L, cash flow, stock
  • PDF invoices, thermal prints, WhatsApp sharing
  • Supplier Portal and Customer Portal
  • Bilingual interface — English + Urdu
  • DigitalNation Support — WhatsApp, email, call

No feature is locked behind a higher tier. The only difference is duration and price.

Step 2: Look at your current status:

What you’ll see Meaning

Expires on [date] Active subscription ending soon
Active until [date] Healthy subscription
Expired No active plan

Step 3: Choose your plan:

Done! Your business continues without interruption.

Renewing before expiry

Best practice: Renew 3-5 days before the expiry date.

Why:

  • No gap in service
  • No risk of missing days
  • Smoother verification

How:

  1. Subscription page shows “Expiring in X days”
  2. Click “Renew Now”
  3. Follow the same payment process
  4. New plan extends your current expiry — doesn’t reset it

Example:

  • Current expiry: 30 November
  • You renew on 27 November for 30 days
  • New expiry: 30 December (added on top of existing)

Highlight: "Expiring in X days" alert, "Renew Now" button

What happens if you don’t renew

Time since expiry What happens
Day 1-3 Limited access — read-only mode
Day 4-30 Grace period — data safe, system locked
Day 31+ Data scheduled for deletion
Day 60+ Data permanently deleted

⚠️ Don’t let it come to this. 30 days is a long time — but if you’re away, or distracted, it can slip. Set a reminder on your phone.

Upgrading from Monthly to Annual

If you started with Monthly and want to switch to Annual:

  1. Subscription page → “Upgrade”
  2. Choose the new plan (Annual)
  3. Pay the difference (adjusted for your remaining days)
  4. New expiry: today + 365 days

You don’t lose the remaining days — they’re credited toward the new plan.

Frequently asked questions

What happens to my data if I don't subscribe?

Your data is preserved for 30 days after expiry. After 30 days, it’s deleted permanently. Subscribe before that to keep it.

Can I pause my subscription?

Not directly. If you want to pause, contact DigitalNation Support — they may offer alternatives in special cases.

Do I get a refund if I cancel?

The subscription is for the period you paid for. If you cancel mid-period, no refund — but you retain access until expiry.

Can I switch from Monthly to Annual mid-cycle?

Yes. Upgrade any time — the remaining days are credited toward the new plan.

Is there a setup fee?

No. You pay only for the subscription.

Are prices negotiable?

Standard prices are fixed. For special cases — like a large business or multi-branch setup — contact DigitalNation Support.

Can I pay with a credit card?

Currently, we accept bank transfer, JazzCash, and EasyPaisa. Card payments may come in the future.

How long does verification take?

Usually within a few hours. During holidays or late nights — up to 24 hours.

Can I get an invoice for my business records?

Yes. After verification, click “Download Invoice” on the Subscription page. Includes your DN number, business name, plan, and amount.

What if my payment is rejected?

DigitalNation Support will explain why. Common reasons: wrong amount, wrong recipient, blurry screenshot, or an already-used transaction ID. Fix the issue and resubmit.

Do you offer a discount for multiple branches?

Contact DigitalNation Support for multi-branch pricing.

What is the "Lifetime" plan?

A one-time payment that gives you permanent access. Best for long-term businesses — no ongoing payments.

Can I downgrade from Annual to Monthly?

Yes, at renewal time. Your current annual period runs out first.

How do I know when my subscription is about to expire?

The dashboard shows “Expiring in X days” when 7 days remain. You’ll also get emails and notifications.
