# Can I pay by check or wire transfer?

Just like all other internet service providers with service subscriptions, monthly payments are automatically processed via credit card. This is similar to your cable TV, cell phone, web hosting, amazon prime or other technology services. This ensures all included services such as monthly package minutes, channels, storage, and any other recurring services are available instantly without delay and to keep your apps up and running on your connected publishing platforms.

SaaS (Software as a Service) companies like Lightcast.com, require credit card payments because we need to trigger the payment to the card. It is Lightcast's responsibility to trigger the payment on time to ensure the automated system provides all services continuously without interruptions.

That said, check or wire transfer payments are possible, but only with annual payments, not for monthly payments.
