Just went through the same payment flow as when I signed up for Orion lifetime, looking to find a way to pay for one month search. Unfortunately, my account was credited sucessfully, however, I'm still in the same flow loop witout a successfull way to pay for search without auto-renew.
I assume this is a bug. Users who do not resonate with subscription (such as myself) may be deterred from using any feature which seems to encourageg auto-renew payment. I love the product and would be happy to 'top-up' balance, and pay for usuage ad-hoc. When I require. But surely will not have any auto-renew feature.
Perhaps this is specific to culture, social-demographics. But just wanted to share my expereince.
I expected to be able to pay without auto-renew enabled.
