Activating Your Subscription
You've built your full profile. This is the final step — starting your subscription is what makes your profile visible to buyers in Tijuana. Your first 3 months are free.
Your First 3 Months Are Free
Every new seller starts with a 3-month free trial. You choose a plan and add a payment method up front, but you are not charged until the trial ends — and you can cancel anytime before then at no cost. After the trial, billing begins automatically on the plan you chose.
Choose Your Plan
Both plans include the same 3-month free trial. The only difference is how you are billed once the trial ends.
Monthly Plan
Billed month-to-month after your trial — cancel anytime
Best for sellers who want maximum flexibility once the trial ends. No long-term commitment.
Annual Plan
Save ~2 monthsBilled once a year after your trial
Best value for committed sellers. Paying annually works out to roughly two months free each year compared with paying monthly.
How the Checkout Works
Select your plan (monthly or annual)
You will see both options with their pricing clearly displayed.
Click to start your free trial
You will be taken to a secure Stripe checkout page.
Add your payment method
Your card is saved securely for when the trial ends — no charge is made now. Vendoralia never stores your card details; Stripe handles everything.
Your profile goes live
Once your subscription is confirmed (usually within moments) you are sent back to Vendoralia with your profile active and visible in search results. You will not be billed until the 3 months are up.
If a Payment Fails
You are not charged while adding your card, so a failure usually means the card could not be saved (or, later, a renewal charge could not be processed). No charge goes through if it fails. Common causes and fixes:
→ Incorrect card details — double-check the number, expiry, and CVV
→ Insufficient funds — try a different card or payment method
→ Card blocked for online transactions — contact your bank to enable it
→ Bank requiring authorization — check your banking app for a pending approval
Important
Do not close your browser during checkout. Wait for the confirmation page before navigating away.
Best Practice
Have your payment method ready before you start checkout. The Stripe session has a time limit.
