Billing Update: Minute Pack Station and First Starter Pack 99OFF

What Changed

InterviewCC pricing is now a clearer “Minute Pack Station”: ¥10 / 30 minutes, ¥30 / 120 minutes, and ¥100 / 500 minutes. The pricing page no longer shows original prices, strikethrough prices, or limited 50% discount labels. Each minute pack shows its real price and approximate per-minute cost.

We also launched a long-term first-order offer: each account can buy the starter pack once with 99OFF, paying ¥0.10 for 30 minutes. This applies only to the starter pack, not the ¥30 / ¥100 packs and not one-session temporary payments.

Why

We want AI interview assistance billing to be simple: minutes never expire, you pay by actual usage, and unused interview time returns to your account. Removing signup bonus minutes makes account balance, recharge orders, and billing records easier to reconcile while still letting new users try the product at very low cost.

User Impact

• New accounts now start with 0 minutes.
• If eligible, the first starter pack costs ¥0.10 and grants 30 minutes.
• After any successful minute-pack purchase, the starter pack 99OFF offer is no longer available.
• Purchased minute packs remain valid long term and are deducted by actual interview usage.
• If duplicate starter-offer QR codes are paid, only the first successful order grants minutes; later duplicate payments are refunded in full.
