Frequently Asked Questions
How do calculation limits work?
Personal plan allows saving up to 5 calculations. Family and Business plans offer unlimited calculations. The limit only counts saved calculations, not calculations you perform without saving.
Can I upgrade later?
Yes! You can upgrade from Personal to Family or Business at any time. You'll immediately get all the benefits of the new plan. Previously saved calculations will remain available.
What happens when my Business subscription expires?
You'll lose access to organization features, dashboard, and API. Your saved calculations will remain accessible. You can renew at any time to restore full access.
How do I add family members?
With Family plan, go to the Family Dashboard and click "Add Member". You can add up to 5 members and calculate zakat for each separately or see the family summary.

How do I get an API key?
