Where To Find The Customer Portal
When you are logged in to the Greyscalegorilla website, just click on the gear icon at the top of every page.
Managing Your Subscription
If you are an Active Subscriber, go to your Customer Portal and click on the "Manage Your Subscription" button. Once there, you can make changes and updates to your Subscription, as described in the steps below.
How to Deactivate Auto Renew / Cancel Your Subscription
If you do not want to be charged for a renewal order, select the "Deactivate Auto Renew" button. You will have access to your subscription until the subscription end date. Your subscription will NOT automatically renew after you select "Deactivate Auto Renew".
If you accidentally cancel your Subscription by clicking "Deactivate Auto Renew", don't worry! You can simply select the "Activate Auto Renew" button that appears once a Subscription is cancelled, and it will go back to being a recurring Subscription.
How to Update Payment Method
If you'd like to change the card related to the subscription, simply select the "Update Payment Card" button.
How to Renew Early
If you'd like to renew your subscription early because you have received a promo code, choose the "Renew Now" option, and it will take you to the checkout page, and make sure to enter your coupon in the promo code field.
How to Change Your Subscription Term
If you are a Monthly Subscriber and rather switch to Annual, and vice versa, click the "Change Subscription Term" button, as shown below and follow the instructions.
How to Get a Receipt of Purchase
If you'd like to get the invoice of your Order, scroll down until you see the "Related Orders" section. Next to each order there is an "Invoice" button, which will allow you to download the invoice.
How to Get An Invoice with a VAT Included?
If you need your company's VAT information added to your invoice, please add it to the second address line during checkout or on your Customer Portal's Contact Information section, where you can change your billing address. (See below for instructions)
If you have already gone through the checkout process and need your first Order's invoice updated with the correct VAT information, please contact the Support Team and provide the proper information. During that process, we can also include it to your billing address for you, so all future invoices include the VAT information as well.
To contact support, click here and then select "Contact" at the top of the page, or email support@greyscalegorilla.com.
Updating Your Account Details & Preferences
Here we will be going over anything in your account that is outside of your Subscription, including changing your billing address, changing your passwords, and more.
How to Change Your Billing Address
To update your billing address, go to the Contact Information tab on the lefthand side, and you will see an option to "Edit Billing Address".
How to Change Or Add Payment Methods to Your Account
To change or add a new credit/debit card, go to the Payment Methods tab. Here you can delete old cards, or add new ones. (Your card's last four digits will appear, however for documentation purposes the example has been blotted out).
How to Change Your Name & Display Name
Go to the Account Details tab of the Customer Portal to change either your name and your display name. Your display name is the one that will be used on your account and it will default to being your first and last name. Make sure to select the "Save Changes" button after making changes.
