We accept all four major credit card providers: MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover. Your payment will be automatically deducted every billing cycle (typically every 30 days from the date of purchase). If for some reason your card fails, we will send you an email notifying you to update your credit card on file and pay the past due invoice.

Paypal: Movie tutorial
If you pay using PayPal, by default, your payment is a one-time payment and will not be taken automatically every month.

Paypal Subscription
This is how you can tell PayPal to make your payments automatically. Please understand that HostGator will not be in control over the amount of money you send or when PayPal sends it. If you want the automatic payments to stop, you must cancel the Paypal Subscription.
Please do not subscribe when your payment is late; this will cause all of your payments to be late. Instead, pay one-time and wait until the next invoice to setup the subscription (on time).

Switching Payment Methods
You are welcome to switch how you pay at any time; there is usually no need to contact HostGator. Please follow the instructions for a one-time payment using the new method. If you pay an invoice before we charge your credit card, then we will not charge your card automatically.
If you want to permanently change your payment method, please contact our support team via live chat, telephone, or email sales@hostgator.com.
Past Due Invoices
We allow you ten days to pay any past due invoices. If an invoice is not paid within ten days after we create it, your account will be suspended and a $10.00 late fee will be added. You will have an additional ten days to pay all open invoices before your account may be terminated.
