# Pricing & Payment

## Pricing <a href="#distance-calculation" id="distance-calculation"></a>

|                      | Price                |
| -------------------- | -------------------- |
| Distance calculation | 0,01 EUR per route\* |
|                      | + PayPal & tax       |

### \*What is a route?

Each row in your document containing origin and destination will be charged. You'll get the final price after validating your input and duplicates recognition.

### Duplicates <a href="#distance-calculation" id="distance-calculation"></a>

Duplicate rows in the input are **automatically detected** and excluded from billing. A duplicate is defined as an entry with the exact same origin and destination values as another row. However, all duplicates are **reinserted into the final result** to match the structure of the original input file. This ensures compatibility when merging the distance results back into the original spreadsheet.

## Payment <a href="#payment" id="payment"></a>

1. **Pay After Validation:** Payment is only required after successful file validation. Only valid, unique route entries are counted—duplicates are excluded from the price but remain visible in the final results.
2. **Transparent Pricing:** Before payment, you'll see the total number of valid routes and the final price. No hidden fees—what you see is what you pay.
3. **PayPal-Only Checkout:** Payments are processed securely via PayPal. Once your payment is confirmed, the distance calculations will begin automatically.
4. **Only Charged for Unique Routes:** Files are scanned for duplicates and invalid entries before pricing. Only unique and valid routes contribute to the total cost.
5. **Immediate Processing After Payment:** Processing begins immediately after payment is completed—no delays, instant results, fully automated.

#### Alternative Payment Option

If access to a company PayPal account is not available, or if someone else will handle the payment, the payment link can be forwarded to them. To ensure successful delivery of the results, please make sure to enter an additional email address (optional) in the previous step. The final results will be sent to both the PayPal account email and the additional email address provided.

## VAT Invoice

To request a VAT invoice, please contact <info@distance.to> after receiving your results. Be sure to include all necessary invoice details such as company name, address, and VAT number (if applicable).

### To get started, please upload your file: <a href="#are-you-ready-start-here-and-upload-your-file" id="are-you-ready-start-here-and-upload-your-file"></a>
