Pricing FAQ

Can I cancel my retainer at any time?

Yes — all retainers are opt-in and cancellable at any time at no cost. There are no lock-in periods, cancellation fees, or penalties. Just give us a heads-up and we'll wrap cleanly.

What if my project is bigger than Blaze but I'm unsure about Inferno?

Reach out and describe your scope. We'll recommend the right tier and can split large Blaze builds into phased milestones to keep things manageable.

Is the one-time fee separate from the retainer?

Yes. The one-time fee covers your initial build or feature. The retainer is optional — for ongoing work like new features, updates, fixes, and monitoring after launch.

What does a retainer actually include?

Each month you get a set number of development or marketing hours, priority access to the team, bug fixes, minor feature additions, performance checks, and a monthly progress report.

Do you work with international clients?

Absolutely. We work with small and medium-sized businesses across Africa, Europe, North America, and beyond. Payments accepted in USD via Stripe, bank transfer, or other arrangements on request.

How quickly can you start?

We typically onboard new Spark and Ember clients within 3–5 business days. Blaze and Inferno engagements begin with a scoping call, usually within a week of first contact.
