Terms of Service

Effective Date: August 15, 2026

Sender Terms

1. What inbux Does

inbux gives you a personal Pay Link (inbux.me/yourname) where people can pay to send you a message for review. You set the amount. Optionally, you can connect Gmail to manage senders Gmail has already placed in Spam.

2. Account Levels

inbux has three account levels:

Level What You Get Duration
Trial Pay link page, profile, interests 14 days
Subscribed Everything in Trial, plus subscriber features While subscribed
Gmail Connected Everything above + optional Spam Management Optional add-on

3. Trial Period

  • Your free trial lasts 14 days
  • During trial, you can use your pay link and set up your profile
  • If you do not subscribe, we may delete the account seven days after the trial expires
  • Your username may become available after account deletion

4. Subscription

  • Annual subscription fee as shown during signup
  • Renews automatically unless you cancel
  • Cancel anytime in account settings
  • After cancellation, your account remains active through the paid subscription period, followed by a 30-day reactivation grace period
  • If you do not reactivate during that grace period, we may delete your account and associated service data

5. Earnings & Payouts

You earn money when senders pay through your Pay Link. Earnings are applied to your annual subscription first at renewal, reducing or eliminating your renewal cost. If your eligible earnings exceed your subscription cost, the excess is paid to your connected bank account through Stripe.

Subscription Credit

  • At renewal, your earnings are automatically applied to your subscription cost
  • If eligible earnings exceed your subscription cost, the excess is paid to your connected bank account through Stripe
  • Earn enough and your subscription renewal is free
  • Subscription credits are applied immediately at renewal

Cash Payout

  • You must have a connected bank account (via Stripe) to receive payouts
  • Only eligible earnings remaining after your subscription credit can be paid out
  • Payout eligibility and status are shown in your account

Promotional Credits

  • inbux may offer promotional credits (e.g., welcome bonus) at our discretion
  • Credits follow the same subscription-first model
  • Credits are one-time, non-transferable
  • We may modify or discontinue promotional offers at any time

Cancellation & Earnings

If you cancel your subscription:

  • You have a 30-day grace period to reactivate, and eligible earnings remain associated with your account during that period
  • After the grace period, your account is deleted
  • You must complete Stripe Connect onboarding to receive any eligible cash payout

6. Gmail Integration (Optional)

Subscribers can optionally connect Gmail for spam management. If you connect Gmail, you grant inbux permission to:

  • Access Spam-label metadata: Sender addresses, subject lines, timestamps, message identifiers, and authentication-result metadata—not ordinary Gmail Inbox content
  • Send emails on your behalf: When you manually send a Pay Link or explicitly enable Auto-send Pay Links for eligible Spam-folder senders
  • Manage Gmail filters: To implement your allow/block preferences

Connecting Gmail does not itself enable Auto-send. You can pause Auto-send, disconnect Gmail anytime, or revoke access through your Google Account settings. Your Pay Link continues to work without Gmail connected.

7. Your Pay Link Page

  • Your email address is never shown on your pay link page
  • You choose what to display: name, title, company, interests
  • You can edit or hide this information anytime

8. Your Responsibilities

  • Provide accurate account information
  • Keep your account secure
  • Use the service for legitimate purposes
  • If using Gmail features, comply with Gmail's Terms of Service

9. Limitations

inbux is provided "as is." We're not liable for:

  • Service interruptions or downtime
  • Gmail API availability or Gmail's spam classification
  • Emails that bypass spam filters
  • A sender's decision to pay or a recipient's decision to respond
  • Indirect or consequential damages

10. Changes & Termination

  • We may update these terms with 30 days notice for significant changes
  • Either party can terminate anytime
  • Upon termination, your data is handled per our Privacy Policy
