Watch for: Guard Cloud plans are priced in US dollars, monthly or annually; annual billing is shown only as a lower per-month rate billed once a year, about a fifth cheaper per month on Pro and Team (the vendor's two months free label holds for Solo), with no yearly total on the page. The terms say subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled, fees are non-refundable except where law requires, and cancelling or downgrading keeps local protection while cloud features stop at the end of the billing period. The vendor does not mention GST invoices. The Guard page states a three-day trial on Solo that rolls into a monthly charge unless cancelled; other trial terms are shown at checkout, and Pro and Team need a payment method at activation.
HOL Guard bills in USD, so an Indian card charges about 3.5% over the mid-market rate on every payment. This is the real, unavoidable India premium, and unlike GST it is not reclaimable.
18% GST applies, but it is not a flat add-on. A GST-registered business reclaims it as input credit, and foreign B2B is reverse-charged so the vendor bills no GST. Only an unregistered buyer bears the full 18%, and some Indian vendors already include it.
Indicative, not a bill. The exchange rate is a single mid-market reference, not a live feed. Confirm current pricing on the vendor site. Pricing last verified 12 Nov 2026.
