What Is Pay As You Go?

The Pay As You Go payment method means you only pay when one of your LIVE filings is accepted by EDGAR. When you pay as you go, you will be charged a set rate for each of your LIVE filings that is accepted by EDGAR.

Using this payment method requires a valid credit card to be stored on GoFiler Online. Each accepted LIVE filing that you transmitted during GoFiler Online’s billing cycle will be placed on an invoice. At the end of the billing cycle, your credit card will be charged the amount shown on your invoice.

How Pay As You Go works:

  1. Add valid credit card and billing information to your account.

  2. Set your Payment Method to Pay As You Go.

  3. Create your submission as normal.

  4. Use the File Live function when you are ready to submit your Live filing.

  5. If your filing is accepted, GoFiler Online will add the filing to your outstanding bill for the billing cycle.

  6. At the end of the billing cycle, GoFiler Online will create an invoice for all your accepted LIVE filings and charge the credit card on file accordingly.

Helpful Hints:

  • You will be alerted when you File Live, so you will always be aware that you are incurring a charge on your credit card.
  • If your credit card is declined when GoFiler Online attempts to charge it at the end of the billing cycle, your account will be locked until you provide new credit card information. Locked accounts cannot launch Go16 Online or access a number of features.
