Subscription Frequently Asked Questions
Inspirations Magazine Subscription – How it Works
Traditionally magazine subscriptions are billed 1 or 2 years in advance, however with Inspirations our print subscription utilizes a more flexible and affordable Pay As You Go method.
A Pay As You Go subscription features the following benefits:
- Subscribers are billed quarterly one issue at a time
- We send you a heads-up email before incurring any charges
- You have complete flexibility and can cancel your subscription at any time
- Never miss an issue and no need to renew as your subscription is ongoing
- More affordable as the money stays in your account longer
- No locked in or long-term commitments, you are always in control
Costs for a Print Subscription
Australia – AU$18.95 per issue
New Zealand – AU$23.90 per issue
North America – AU$26.95 per issue
Rest of World – AU$28.95 per issue
All prices are quoted per issue, billed quarterly (4 issues per year) include delivery to your door and are in Australian Dollars (use a currency conversion calculator).
How Long After Billing will My Subscriber Copy Arrive?
Great question – we’re glad you asked! Inspirations Magazine is published, billed and dispatched four times a year. Please refer to our schedule below for current billing and dispatch dates. Your subscriber copy is dispatched 4-5 weeks after a payment is debited as follows:
Week 1 & 2 – After the billing date, we follow up failed payments to ensure no-one misses an issue.
Week 3 – Finalise global mailing lists including error checking addresses
Week 4 – Lists sent to global mailing houses where they are processed and fly sheets printed
Week 5 – Magazines are packed, sorted and dispatched
Once your subscriber copy leaves our mailing houses, the relevant postal services take over and depending on where in the world you live, it can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks to reach its final destination.
