This is a production-ready draft for app launch, but it should still be reviewed by a qualified lawyer in Maharashtra, India before public release.
1. Two types of credits
ModVala uses two separate, non-interchangeable credit buckets:
- Free credits — granted every month to every user (Free or Pro). Earned through the in-app quiz. Used for everyday actions such as joining a Gang Trip, decorating a photo, asking the AI Mechanic, and creating the first vehicle QR.
- Premium credits — granted only to ModVala Pro subscribers each month, or purchased as a one-time credit pack from inside the app. Used for higher-tier actions such as creating a Gang Trip / Community, exporting garage data, and adding additional same-type vehicles.
Free credits and Premium credits are tracked independently. Free credits cannot be used where Premium credits are required, and Premium credits are not consumed for actions that already accept Free credits.
2. Free plan
- 1 Car slot and 1 Bike slot in your garage at no cost.
- 3 Free credits every month.
- Access to basic mod planning, maintenance logs and the photo timeline.
- App theme is limited to Light or Dark mode. Premium colour accents are visible but locked and require ModVala Pro to apply.
3. ModVala Pro plan
- Subscription price: Rs 99 per month, billed through Google Play Billing.
- 15 Premium credits + 3 Free credits every month for the duration of the subscription.
- No carry forward — both credit buckets reset at the start of each billing month and any unused balance is forfeited.
- Unlimited vehicle types in your garage (additional same-type vehicles still cost Premium credits — see Section 5).
- Combined budget dashboard, advanced charts, preset comparisons, reminder-ready maintenance and premium app themes including the full colour accent palette.
- +10 verified Garage Score added to your profile every month while the subscription stays active.
4. Actions paid with Free credits
| Action | Cost |
|---|---|
| Join a Gang Trip | 2 Free credits |
| Visual Decor on a photo | 2 Free credits per photo |
| Ask the AI Mechanic a question | 1 Free credit per question |
| Create your first vehicle QR / Vehicle Owner Call code | 2 Free credits (one QR per account at the Free-credit price) |
Once you have created your first vehicle QR using Free credits, every additional vehicle QR is treated as a Premium-credit action (see Section 5).
5. Actions paid with Premium credits
| Action | Cost |
|---|---|
| Create a Gang Trip | 3 Premium credits |
| Create a Community | 3 Premium credits |
| Export Budget, Garage specs or any garage data as PDF or Excel | 2 Premium credits per export |
| Add a 2nd or further vehicle of the same type (e.g. a 2nd car or 2nd bike) | 2 Premium credits per additional vehicle |
| Add any further vehicle QR / Vehicle Owner Call code beyond the first | 2 Premium credits per QR |
6. Credit packs (one-time purchases)
Both Free and Pro users can top up Premium credits at any time by purchasing a one-time credit pack from inside the app. Credit packs are sold through Google Play Billing.
| Pack | Price |
|---|---|
| 3 Premium credits | Rs 33 |
| 5 Premium credits | Rs 49 |
| 10 Premium credits | Rs 99 |
Credit packs add to your existing Premium credit balance and do not change your subscription state. Purchased Premium credits are subject to the same monthly reset rule and do not carry forward beyond the calendar/billing month in which they were purchased, unless ModVala explicitly states otherwise inside the app at the time of purchase.
7. Bonus credits and earnings
- Quiz reward: every 5 correct answers in the in-app Q&A awards 2 Free credits, capped at a maximum of 5 Free credits earned per user per week from the Q&A. The weekly cap resets every Monday 00:00 IST.
- Pro monthly Garage Score: ModVala Pro users receive +10 verified Garage Score every month while their subscription is active.
- Bonus and earned credits are added to the Free credit bucket unless explicitly stated otherwise in-app.
8. Expiry, carry-forward and resets
Both Free and Premium credit balances reset at the start of each billing month. Unused credits, including bonus credits and credits purchased through credit packs, do not carry forward to the next month unless ModVala explicitly states otherwise inside the app at the time the credits are issued.
Free credits granted to a user remain available to that user's account only and cannot be transferred between accounts.
9. Billing, renewal and cancellation
The ModVala Pro subscription and all credit packs are billed through Google Play Billing using RevenueCat as the payment-management provider. Pro subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period until cancelled by the user in their Google Play account settings. Cancelling Pro stops future renewals but does not refund the current month; you keep Pro benefits and unused credits until the end of the paid period.
If a payment fails, Pro benefits and Premium credit grants for that billing period may be paused until the payment succeeds.
10. Refunds
Refunds for the ModVala Pro subscription and for credit packs are handled by Google Play under their refund policy. ModVala does not directly process refunds. To request a refund, users should follow Google Play's standard refund process.
Credits that have already been spent inside the app are not refundable. Where Google Play refunds a purchase, the corresponding credits and/or Pro entitlement may be revoked from the user's ModVala account.
11. Misuse and abuse
ModVala may reverse, withhold or revoke credits that were obtained or used through fraud, abuse, exploitation of bugs, automation, multiple accounts, false quiz answers, payment chargebacks or violations of the Terms of Service, Community Guidelines or applicable law.
12. Changes to this policy
ModVala may update credit prices, action costs, monthly allowances, bonuses and credit pack contents from time to time. Where changes are materially adverse to existing users, ModVala will provide at least 7 days' prior notice via in-app notification or email. Continued use of credits after the effective date of an updated policy constitutes acceptance.
