Customer emails work in every country, and so do the stamp card and the back office.
- Billing and cancelling
The paid plan renews by itself until you cancel. You can cancel at any time: open Settings, press Your plan, then Manage billing or cancel.
Our payment partner is the seller of record, named on the checkout before you pay. They take the payment, handle sales tax and appear on your statement, and their invoice is your receipt. The refund policy says what we return and how to ask.
- Free plan
- The free plan has no time limit and nothing is charged until you start the paid plan yourself. The paid plan is $39 a month, or $390 a year, per shop (plus sales tax where it applies), with 30 days free for a new business.
- More than one shop
- An account holds up to 5 shops. The free plan covers one, and each shop after it is $39 a month. More than that is a conversation rather than a button: write to us and we will tell you honestly whether KANJIN suits you yet. Write to us.
What the paid plan does for you
5 things, and they all run on your own list
- Slow-day email
- On a slow day, or the evening before rain, email your regulars in one tap. Up to 1,000 customers, 2 sends a week.
- Google review requests
- On the free plan, KANJIN sends 20 a month. On the paid plan there is no monthly cap. Each customer gets one request after a visit, plus one reminder 4 days later if they did not click, then not again for a year. Only to customers who left an email and agreed to hear from you.
- Win-back email
- When a regular stops coming, KANJIN emails them once, at 6 pm your time. No campaign to build.
- Creator discovery
- Instagram and YouTube creators near your shop, found by city and trade and searched in the language they post in. The invitation comes drafted; you send it.
- Supplier payments
- Every supplier invoice for a week or a month, grouped by supplier, with what is paid and what is still owed. Profit analysis beside it shows where the money went, by category. Print either for your accountant. The ledger itself, and printing it, stay free.

KANJIN writes the email to your regulars for a quiet day, and you press Send. The rainy-day email goes out by itself, in your words. It also finds local creators to invite. Google review requests have no monthly cap here, instead of 20 a month on the free plan. A regular who stops coming gets a “we miss you” email by itself.

Questions
What owners ask before they start
- Is the free plan a trial?
- No. The calculators need no account. Your shop’s numbers need a free account, with no card and no time limit. Your customers’ data is yours. We never sell it, staff see only what you allow, and you can download or delete everything.
- Why per shop and not per user?
- Adding a receptionist should not cost you more. A second shop doubles the work KANJIN does, so a second shop is what you pay for.
- When do I start paying?
- Only when you choose to. The free plan has no time limit, and nothing starts or charges on its own. Start the paid plan from your back office when your list has people worth emailing: it is $39 a month, or $390 a year, with 30 days free for a new business. You can export everything and leave at any time.
- Who do I ask about a charge or a refund?
- Write to billing@kanjin.app. A person reads it and answers within two working days, as the refund policy says. You can cancel online at any time without writing to anyone.
- Do you guarantee creators will come?
- No, and be careful of anyone who does. We promise you can find local creators and invite them. Whether your offer appeals to them is up to you.

Put your stamp card on the counter this week
A discount cuts the price for everyone who would have paid anyway. KANJIN emails your regulars only on the days you need them, and finds local creators you can invite.
