Domain Name

You can use your own domain name, or we can purchase one on your behalf.

If we purchase the domain for you:

  • You pay the one-off domain registration cost (typically $15–$30/year)
  • We manage the DNS and configuration while your subscription is active
  • The domain belongs to you. If you cancel, we transfer it back
3
Who Owns What

Your content. Any photos, logos, text, and branding materials you provide remain yours at all times.

The website code. The website (design, code, and build) is owned by MakeItScale until the build cost has been fully covered through your monthly subscription.

The build value of your website equals 36 monthly payments at your plan's rate (for example, Starter = 36 × $89 = $3,204). Each monthly payment reduces the remaining balance. After 36 months, ownership transfers to you.

Before 36 months: If you cancel, we disconnect the site. You're free to put up your own website or go back to what you had before. No website files are provided.

After 36 months: If you cancel, we provide a full copy of your website files (zip). Hosting and management become your responsibility from that point.

4
Early Buyout

You can take ownership of your website at any time by paying the remaining balance of the 36-month build cost.

Buyout = (36 − months subscribed) × your monthly fee
Example: cancel a Starter plan after 12 months → 24 × $89 = $2,136

There is no obligation to buy out. If you don't want to, you simply cancel and move on.

5
No Lock-In
  • There is no minimum term and no contract lock-in
  • Cancel at any time with 14 days' written notice (email is fine)
  • Cancel before 36 months without buying out: website is taken offline, no files provided
  • Cancel after 36 months: you receive your website files as described in Section 3
6
Payment
  • Payments are collected monthly via Stripe (credit or debit card)
  • Your first payment starts your subscription and the 36-month ownership period
  • If a payment fails and remains unpaid for 7 days, the website is taken offline
  • The website is restored once the outstanding payment is made
  • All prices are in Australian Dollars (AUD)
7
Our Responsibilities

We are responsible for:

  • Keeping your website online and accessible 24/7
  • Fixing any downtime, bugs, or security issues at no extra cost
  • Making the content changes you request in a timely manner
  • Ensuring your site remains secure and up to date
8
Limitation of Liability

While we take every reasonable step to keep your website secure and operational, our total liability for any claim arising from this agreement is limited to the fees paid in the 3 months prior to the claim.

We are not liable for losses caused by factors outside our control, including third-party service outages, force majeure events, or issues arising from changes you make after taking ownership.
