Before You Begin
Magic Hour accepts all major credit and debit cards: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover, as well as alternate payment methods like Apple Pay, Google Pay, AliPay, and more depending on your region. Payment processing is handled securely through our payment provider Stripe.
Change Your Payment Method
Sign in to your Magic Hour account.
Go to My Plan — you can navigate there via the sidebar, or by clicking your profile avatar in the top right and selecting My Plan.
On either the Current Plan card or the Payment Method card, click the "..." (three-dot menu) in the top-right corner of that card.
Click "Update payment method".
The Stripe billing portal will open. There, add or update your payment method details.
Save your changes in the Stripe portal.
Expected result: Your payment method is updated. Your new payment method will be used for all future charges.
Your payment method is updated securely. Magic Hour doesn't store full card details — only your payment provider (Stripe) has access to sensitive information.
Verify the Change
Confirm your payment method updated successfully:
Go to My Plan.
Check that your new payment method is shown in the Payment Method section.
Look for a confirmation email confirming the update.
Your next charge will appear on your bank statement for the new payment method you added.

Is it safe to add my card information? Yes. Magic Hour uses industry-standard encryption and secure payment processing. Your payment information is handled by Stripe and never stored directly on our servers.
How often can I change my payment method? You can update your payment method as many times as you need. Changes take effect immediately and apply to all future charges.
Will changing my payment method affect my current subscription? No. Your subscription and credits remain unchanged. Only the card used for billing is updated.
What if my payment fails? If a charge is declined, you'll receive an email notification. Update your payment method as soon as possible to avoid service interruption. You may also purchase a one-time credit pack if needed.
