About directory membership

Phapano Directory supports professional visibility and discovery. Membership does not guarantee enquiries, referrals, bookings or clients.

Membership, billing and cancellation

Does applying cost anything?
No. Submitting an application creates no charge and asks for no payment details. You will not be asked to pay anything at the point of applying.
When am I asked to pay?
Only after we have checked your registration against the public HPCSA register. Payment is requested after that check, never before it, and the system will not let us request payment from anyone whose registration has not been checked.
When does my listing become publicly visible?
Once three things are true: your registration has been checked, your membership is active, and we have published the listing. Publishing is a separate manual step, so a successful payment does not put your profile live on its own.
What if my registration cannot be verified?
We will contact you and explain what we found. Because payment is only requested after the register check, there is nothing to refund at that stage: an application that does not pass verification has not been charged.
Do memberships renew automatically?
Yes. Monthly membership renews each month and annual membership renews each year, through PayFast, until you cancel. There is no fixed end date and no minimum number of months.
What happens when the introductory price ends?
Monthly members pay R99/month for the first 3 months, after which the rate becomes R199/month. Annual members pay R1 499 for the first year, after which renewal is at the standard annual rate, currently R1 999 a year. PayFast notifies you before a recurring amount increases.
How do I cancel?
Email info@phapano.com and we will cancel future billing for you. Cancelling stops the next payment; it does not shorten the period you have already paid for, and your listing stays visible until that period ends. There is no self-service cancellation in your account yet.
How do I have my listing removed?
Email info@phapano.com. We will take the listing down, and can erase the application and photograph entirely if you would like us to.
What happens if a payment fails?
Your listing does not disappear over one failed payment. The membership is marked past due and stays visible for seven days, so there is time to sort out a card or a bank issue. If no successful payment arrives in that window, the membership lapses and the listing becomes ineligible to stay public until it is settled.
Do you offer refunds?
Cancelling stops future payments rather than refunding past ones, and you keep the period you have already paid for. If something has gone wrong with a payment, email info@phapano.com and we will look at it individually.
