Pricing, Government Fees & Payments

Pricing, Government Fees & Payments

Are government fees included in SCILLAN's service prices?

Unless a service specifically states otherwise, government fees are separate from SCILLAN's service fee.
Examples of separate government charges may include:

  • Texas Secretary of State filing fees
  • County filing fees
  • Certification fees
  • Copy fees
  • Texas Express expedited-processing fees
  • Other agency charges

Why am I paying both SCILLAN and the government?

SCILLAN's service fee pays for SCILLAN's administrative work, which may include:

  • Intake review
  • Document preparation
  • Filing coordination
  • Submission support
  • Status tracking
  • Client communication
  • Document delivery
  • Compliance support

Government fees are charged by the applicable government agency for the filing, document, certification, or processing request.

Will I see the total before I pay?

Applicable service charges and government fees should be displayed during checkout before the order is completed.
If a fee appears incorrect, the customer should contact SCILLAN before completing payment.
Support email:


Does SCILLAN charge a credit-card convenience fee?

SCILLAN does not separately add its own card convenience fee under the current website pricing structure.
The State's applicable credit-card fee is included within SCILLAN's website pricing structure for the government fees.
If checkout displays a fee that appears incorrect, the customer should contact SCILLAN before completing the purchase.

What is the State credit-card fee?

When an applicable government filing is paid by credit card, the government may impose a payment-processing charge.
SCILLAN's website pricing structure incorporates the applicable State credit-card fee into the government-fee amount presented to the customer.
Sia should not invent or separately calculate the State credit-card fee unless an approved current amount is maintained in the knowledge base.

Does SCILLAN add a 2.7% card convenience fee?

No.
SCILLAN's prior separate 2.7% Card Convenience Fee is not part of the current website pricing structure.
The applicable State credit-card fee is incorporated into the government-fee pricing where relevant.

Are Texas Express fees included in the normal filing fee?

No.
Texas Express expedited-processing fees are additional government fees.
For eligible Texas Secretary of State business filings, current Texas Express options may include:
Standard Expedited
Typically 2–3 business days
Additional government fee: $50 per document
Next-Day
Additional government fee: $500 per document
Same-Day
Additional government fee: $750 per document
Each Texas Express fee is in addition to the normal government filing fee.

Is Texas Express a SCILLAN fee?

No.
Texas Express expedited-processing charges are government fees associated with eligible Texas Secretary of State filings.
SCILLAN should not describe them as SCILLAN service fees.

Does expedited processing guarantee approval?

No.
Expedited processing may accelerate government review, but it does not guarantee acceptance or approval.

Each separate company requires its own registered agent subscription.

Can I purchase services for several entities at once?

SUBSCRIPTIONS AND RECURRING BILLING

Which SCILLAN services are recurring?

Other services may be one-time unless specifically described as recurring.

Will my registered agent service renew automatically?

Applicable renewal terms and billing information are provided during enrollment or within the customer's service documentation.

When will I be charged for renewal?

The customer's applicable subscription terms should control the renewal billing date.
Sia should not invent a renewal date if it is not shown in the customer's account or approved knowledge base.

Can I cancel automatic renewal?

Customers should use the applicable account, subscription, or support process to request cancellation.
Cancellation terms may depend on the timing of the request and the current service period.

Does canceling payment remove my registered agent requirement?

No.
If the entity is legally required to maintain a registered agent, canceling SCILLAN service does not eliminate that requirement.
The customer is responsible for arranging a replacement registered agent where applicable.

PAYMENT QUESTIONS

What payment methods does SCILLAN accept?

Customers should never send full payment-card information through the chatbot, email, or other unsecured communication methods.

Can I send my credit card number through chat?

Customers should never provide:

  • Full credit card numbers
  • CVV codes
  • Banking credentials
  • Passwords
  • Other payment credentials

through the chatbot.

Can SCILLAN invoice me?

REFUNDS

Does SCILLAN offer refunds?

Refund eligibility depends on:

  • The service purchased
  • Order status
  • Work already performed
  • Whether a government filing has been submitted
  • Government fees already paid
  • Documents already prepared
  • SCILLAN's applicable refund terms

Sia should not automatically promise a refund.

Can government filing fees be refunded?

Government fees may become nonrefundable once paid or submitted to the applicable agency.
The exact treatment depends on the government agency and order status.
Sia should not promise that a government fee can be refunded.

Can I receive a refund if I change my mind?

Possibly, depending on whether work has started and whether government fees have been paid.
The customer should contact SCILLAN Support as soon as possible.

Can I get a refund if my filing is rejected?

Refund eligibility depends on the reason for the rejection, work already performed, government fees paid, and SCILLAN's applicable refund terms.
A government rejection does not automatically mean the service fee is refundable.

Can I get a refund if the government takes too long?

Government processing times are outside SCILLAN's control.
A slower government processing time does not automatically create refund eligibility.

ORDER CANCELLATIONS

Can I cancel my order?

What if SCILLAN has already started working on my order?

Refund or cancellation eligibility may be affected if:
