What the price includes, and what it does not.

Currency: AED. VAT is additional only if applicable. Third-party costs are excluded unless the package explicitly says otherwise.

Launch availability
Launch pricing applies to the first three signed clients, subject to availability. In exchange, the client agrees that Mayantha may request an honest testimonial and a portfolio case study after delivery.
Deposit and payments
Fixed projects are 50% to start and 50% before launch/delivery. Monthly services are paid in advance.
Revisions
A revision round means one consolidated set of feedback. Work outside the stated rounds or scope is quoted and approved first.
Change control
Any page, integration, workflow, edit, shoot, asset count or support request beyond the package cap is a change request and will be priced before work begins.
Retainer terms
Automation Run, Marketing Managed, Marketing Full Stack and Whole Department start with a three-month minimum term. Photo and video retainers are monthly with 30 days' notice.
Fees outside the price
Media spend, hosting/provider fees beyond the stated plan, software/API fees, travel outside Dubai city limits, talent, location, permits, specialist equipment and authority charges are client-paid unless stated otherwise.

Every number above is what you would actually pay. Here is what it bought the people who paid it.
