These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the HelpWise platform, operated by HelpWise ("Company", "we", "us", "our"). By accessing or using HelpWise, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you may not use the platform.
If you are using HelpWise on behalf of an organisation, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.
HelpWise is a cloud-based customer support platform that enables teams to manage support tickets across email, chat, portal, and other channels; publish a knowledge base; configure SLAs and automations; manage assets and contacts; and report on service performance. The service includes web-based access to the agent application, customer-facing portal, public API, and related functionality as described on our website.
New organisations are granted a 14-day free trial with full access to Pro plan features. No payment details are required to start the trial. At the end of the trial period, organisations must subscribe to a paid plan to continue using HelpWise. There is no perpetual free tier.
The Growth plan is billed at £12 per agent per month (or £10 per agent per month when billed annually). It includes unlimited agents, knowledge base, automations, ticket and SLA management, agent groups, business hours, CSAT surveys, and core analytics.
The Pro plan is billed at £35 per agent per month (or £29 per agent per month when billed annually). It includes everything in Growth, plus live chat, AI-powered ticket classification and reply suggestions, the public REST API, webhooks, the Slack integration, SMS channel access, two-factor authentication, and scheduled reports.
The Enterprise plan is billed at £55 per agent per month (or £45 per agent per month when billed annually). It includes everything in Pro, plus MSP mode (multi-tenant company management), single sign-on (SSO/OIDC), audit logging, the Jira integration, IT asset management, and white-labelled customer portal branding.
SMS messaging is metered and billed via either top-up packs (£4 / £16 / £28 for 100 / 500 / 1,000 messages) or a monthly subscription (£3 / £12 for monthly bundles), in addition to your base plan.
Paid plans are billed on a per-agent basis, either monthly or annually. Payment is due in advance for the billing period selected at checkout. Annual billing provides a discount compared to monthly billing as shown on the pricing page. You may add or remove agent seats at any time; changes are prorated for the remainder of your billing period.
We may change our prices from time to time. We will give you at least 30 days' notice before any price increase takes effect. Price changes will apply at the start of your next billing period.
Payments are non-refundable except where required by law. If you cancel a paid plan, you will continue to have access until the end of your current billing period.
If you downgrade from a paid plan to a lower tier, you may need to reduce the number of agents, channels, or integrations to comply with the lower plan's limits before the downgrade can take effect. Any features not available on the lower plan will become inaccessible at the start of your next billing period.
