Your payment or subscription shows as active. Billing is confirmed, and there are no visible errors.
However, premium access still hasn’t been enabled.
This often happens because access permissions activate in stages — not instantly.
How Access Activation Typically Works
- Payment authorization is processed first
- Subscription status updates next
- Permission servers refresh entitlement data
- Session tokens update after re-login
These systems do not always synchronize at the same time.
How Long Activation Delays Can Last
- A few minutes after renewal
- Up to several hours during peak processing times
- Longer if verification checks are triggered
If access is still unavailable after a reasonable sync window, manual refresh may be required.
How To Trigger Permission Refresh
- Log out and log back in
- Clear browser or app cache
- Restart the device
- Access from a different network
- Contact support if delay exceeds expected timeframe
In most cases, delayed access activation is a synchronization timing issue — not a failed subscription.
