Common questions

What happens at the Free tier cap?
The 101st render of the month returns 429 with a clear message. There is no automatic upgrade and no surprise charge. Paid plans continue past the included quota with the disclosed metered overage rate.
Do paid plans unlock product features?
No. The current product surface is available on Free. Paid plans are only for higher usage limits and request rates, not hidden product features.
How is overage billed?
Paid plans include a monthly render quota. Successful renders above that included amount are reported to Stripe Meter Events and billed at the overage rate shown on the selected plan.
Can I switch plans?
You can start, manage, or cancel a paid subscription through the Stripe-hosted checkout and customer portal from the dashboard.
Do you store rendered PDFs?
By default, PaperJet does not archive rendered PDFs — the response is the PDF, your code keeps it. The render-history endpoint (/v1/renders) stores metadata (size, status, duration). If you send an Idempotency-Key, successful responses may be cached for up to 24 h for retry replay. Store PDFs in your own object storage if you need archival.
Where does the data live?
The service is built with EU/GDPR constraints in mind: short render-metadata retention, truncated IP addresses, stored templates you control, and no rendered-PDF archival by default. Idempotent retry replay can retain successful responses briefly. Regional/legal commitments should be confirmed before using PaperJet for regulated production data.
