*August 22, 2026*

Perisclaw now shows local INR pricing for India and gives you more ways to pay, while making plan changes and account removal safer behind the scenes.

## Pay monthly with UPI AutoPay

Customers in India can now choose either card or UPI when starting a monthly Perisclaw Pro plan. Alpha pricing is shown clearly as a discount from the standard ₹2,000 monthly price, so the amount in Perisclaw matches the amount you see at checkout.

## Choose a prepaid annual plan

Annual plans in India can be paid by card or UPI as a one-time purchase. The first year shows the standard ₹20,000 price alongside the applicable Alpha discount. The plan selector highlights that annual billing includes two months free. Existing subscribers open **Change plan** when they want to compare these choices, keeping the saved plan view compact. The plan renews manually rather than creating an automatic annual UPI mandate.

## Safer billing when an account is removed

Removing or banning a connected phone now confirms that every ongoing Stripe subscription has been canceled first. If that cannot be confirmed, Perisclaw stops the removal instead of risking an inaccessible account that continues to be billed.

Existing subscriptions keep their current currency and billing terms.
