Pricing
Free to start. A few dollars for the whole library.

What counts toward the limit?
Books are the ones on your shelf. Books you've borrowed and your want-to-read list don't count. If you share a shelf with someone you live with, your books count together, and a shared shelf holds 200.
Friends don't count at all. Add everyone you might lend to.
What if I reach the limit, or stop paying?
Nothing is ever deleted or hidden. You just can't add more books until you're back under the limit or on Plus again. Lending, notes and everything else keep working.
Paying and canceling
Payments go through Stripe, so Stacks never sees your card. Prices are in US dollars, and sales tax or VAT is added at checkout where it applies. Plus renews automatically; cancel any time from Settings and it stays on until the end of the period you've paid for.
More detail is in the terms, and what Stacks keeps about you is in the privacy policy. Questions? Send a note.
