Common questions

All prices shown are exclusive of GST. GST at 15% will be added to your invoice once SouthStack is GST-registered (required once revenue exceeds $60,000 NZD).
Yes — full IP transfer on final payment. The code, designs, and all content are yours outright. No ongoing licence fees, no platform lock-in, no dependency on SouthStack.
Extra pages beyond the base scope are quoted as an add-on and added to your Statement of Work before work begins. There are no surprise costs mid-project.
Hosting is typically free or very low cost — Cloudflare Pages (free tier) or Vercel (free tier covers most small sites). You pay your domain registrar directly (~$15–25/yr for .co.nz). We'll explain your specific ongoing costs clearly at handover.
Yes, but the 50% deposit is non-refundable. If cancellation happens after more than 50% of the project is complete, the full project fee is payable. This is standard NZ web dev practice and is documented in our Terms of Trade.
For larger projects we can discuss milestone-based payments. Get in touch and we'll work something out.
