Buying & renewing membership
A membership is billed on the plans the circle owner sets. This page covers picking a plan, paying, and what to do when it expires.
Pick a plan
Section titled “Pick a plan”A circle uses one of these two pricing styles:
- Fixed price — a single price and duration (yearly or monthly).
- Subscription planA named membership plan set by the owner; different durations, different prices.Read more → — several named plans to choose from, like Monthly or Yearly, each with its own duration and price.
Subscription plans can come with an Intro priceA discount for a member's first purchase; renewals return to the standard price.Read more →: your first purchase costs less than the standard price, and renewals return to full price. Fixed price has no intro price. Once you’ve picked, pay as described in Paying on OhMy.xin — it takes effect within seconds.
Member tiers (Pro content)
Section titled “Member tiers (Pro content)”Some circles also sell member tiers: join free or paid as usual, then buy a tier separately to unlock deeper content. Find it in the Member tier section of the circle’s membership page, or on the unlock card attached to locked content.
- A tier only unlocks content; it never changes your role, membership, chat access, or red packet and lottery eligibility.
- When a tier expires, tier-only content locks again and nothing else changes. The bot messages you to renew, and you can buy again at any time.
- You cannot buy the tier twice while it is active; wait for it to expire.
- If your circle membership lapses first, renew it before you can read tier content, even while the tier is still valid. Your remaining tier time is preserved.
Renewals come with a discount
Section titled “Renewals come with a discount”The circle reminds you to renew before your membership expires. Many circles give existing members a Renewal discountA reduced price when existing members renew.Read more →, and the renewal page shows the discounted price up front. Renewal time stacks on top of your current expiry date, so no remaining days go to waste.
What happens when it expires
Section titled “What happens when it expires”When a membership expires you become an expired member: membership content locks again, but your profile and activity history are kept. Renew any time and everything comes back instantly.
Walk the lifecycle once
Section titled “Walk the lifecycle once”The expiry math is easiest to believe once you have pushed it around yourself. The lab below starts by joining a paid circle with a 7-day Trial (period)Free trial days with membership content open — nothing is charged automatically.Read more →: buy during the trial (watch the intro price and which day the term starts from), then skip time and renew once before expiry and once after — renewing early stacks the time, buying after a lapse restarts from the purchase day and does not backfill the gap. Switch to the fixed-price style to see that the renewal discount applies only while you are still a member.

Two more things worth knowing
Section titled “Two more things worth knowing”- Gifted time — the circle owner can gift membership time to members directly; when it arrives, your expiry date extends automatically.
- Check status and records — the Mine tab shows your expiry date and all your orders at any time; each order can be matched to its Mixin transfer by its TraceThe unique number of each transfer, shown on order details and linking to the original transfer in Mixin; console search calls it "trace id".Read more →.
If something goes wrong
Section titled “If something goes wrong”- Membership didn’t activate after paying — wait a few seconds and refresh. If it still hasn’t, look up the payment with its Trace on the order page, or contact the circle owner.
- Want to switch plans — just buy the new plan; the time stacks automatically. If you have questions about the price difference, contact the circle owner.
