How reservations work

Our apps are coming soon. You can reserve one at the launch price: today you only save a payment method, and you pay only if and when the app launches.

In short

Today No charge
When you pay On launch day
Reminder 7 days before
If the app doesn't launch No charge
Payment Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay

Step by step

1. Reserve On the app's page you'll find, in your currency, the launch price and the price the app will have after launch, plus the expected launch date. Enter your email and save a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Nothing is charged today.
2. Get a confirmation We immediately send you an email with a summary (app, price, expected date, payment authorization) and a link to the page where you can manage your reservation.
3. Reminder 7 days before A week before the charge we email you the date and amount.
4. Launch day We charge the price you reserved and tell you how to use the app. If the offer is a subscription, the first charge happens on launch day and renewals follow the terms written on the app's page.
5. If the app doesn't launch An app launches only if it collects enough reservations. If it doesn't launch by the expected date, your reservation is cancelled automatically: no charge, your payment method is removed and we let you know by email.

Frequently asked questions

Why don't I pay now?

Because the app doesn't exist yet: you only pay if it actually launches. So if it doesn't launch, there's nothing to refund.

Which currency will I pay in?

The one shown on the app's page and in your reservation confirmation.

Can the price change?

No: you pay the price you reserved, the one written in your confirmation. The price the app will have after launch is shown on its page.

What if the launch is delayed?

We'll email you before the expected date with the new date.

What will I see on my statement?

TINYORBIT, sometimes followed by the app's name. If you see a charge you don't recognize, write to us before disputing it with your bank: we'll check it and correct any error.

Who handles my card details?

Stripe, our payment provider, certified to the PCI DSS card security standard. We never see your full card number.

Who can reserve?

Anyone aged 18 or over. A reservation is personal and covers the app and price shown in your confirmation.
