Notice for customers who sign up via free trial:

HealthSapiens pre-authorizes all credit / debit cards for the full price of the plan, unless otherwise stated. The pre-authorization will be returned if you cancel before the end of the Trial Period, however the time to release the funds back to your account depends on your bank or card issuer. Verifying your payment information makes for a seamless auto-renewed subscription, avoiding any future billing issues and ensures that your access to HealthSapiens is not interrupted. This is a standardized payment practice. The money is not charged, but reserved.

We require a valid payment method upfront because we are providing you with access to US Board Certified Doctors. If someone decides not to cancel their subscription, we need to have a valid credit card on file to charge them for it. This also ensures your payment method on file for our subscription service is valid and is authorized as the standard payment method when your free trial is over.

In some cases, such as pre-paid credit cards, this pre-authorization/”Hold” can be shown as a completed charge. Please be aware that this is due to the nature of the card. If you choose to cancel the subscription during the free trial period, this amount will be released back to your card.
