Membership Terms
Effective: September 1, 2026
1. The Membership and what it is
Select Anime Membership is a paid membership. Your monthly fee is the price of your membership, which is a bundle of access and benefits offered by Select Anime. It is not a deposit, and it is not the purchase of stored value that you can spend later.
Each membership tier gives you a set of benefits for as long as your membership is active. The Member Reward described in Section 4 is one of those benefits. It is a discount that we apply to your order. It is not money held on account for you, it is not a gift card, and it has no cash value.
Your membership begins when your first payment is taken and continues for as long as it renews. If your membership ends, your access and benefits end at the close of your current paid period, as described in Section 3.
2. Billing, automatic renewal, and the charges you agree to
When you enroll, you agree to a subscription that renews automatically. Here is what that means, stated plainly:
- What you pay: Standard is $19.99 per month, Premium is $29.99 per month, and VIP is $59.99 per month. All amounts are in US dollars.
- How often: You are charged once every month, on the same date your membership began.
- Automatic renewal: Your membership renews on its own each month and your card is charged each time, until you cancel.
- No end date: There is no fixed term. Renewals continue until you cancel.
- How to cancel: You can cancel yourself at any time from your account, using the same online path you used to join. See Section 3.
We will show these terms clearly and close to the button you use to enroll, and we will ask for your express agreement before your first charge. We keep a record of that agreement.
If we ever change your price or your benefits, we will tell you first and give you the chance to cancel before the change takes effect. See Section 8.
3. Cancelling your membership
You can cancel at any time. Cancellation is done online, from the same place you manage your membership, in the same simple way you joined. We do not ask you to call us or wait for a reply.
When you cancel:
- Your membership stays active, with all of its benefits, until the end of the period you have already paid for.
- You are not charged again after that period ends.
- We do not offer partial refunds for the unused part of a period, except where the law requires it. If you live in the EU or the UK, please also read Section 7.
After your paid period ends, your member tags, your Member Reward, your discount codes, and your access to Members-only items come to an end.
4. Your Member Reward
Each month, your membership includes a Member Reward. It is a discount that we apply to your order:
- Standard includes a $25 Member Reward each month.
- Premium includes a $35 Member Reward each month.
- VIP includes a $70 Member Reward each month.
How your Member Reward works:
- It is applied automatically to one order during each monthly billing period. You do not need to enter a code.
- It is a discount only. It is not money on account, it cannot be saved up, it cannot be transferred to another person, and it cannot be paid out as cash.
- It lasts for the billing period it belongs to. When your membership renews, a fresh Member Reward replaces the previous one. A Member Reward that you do not use does not carry over.
- If your order is smaller than your Member Reward, the difference is not carried over and has no cash value.
- Your Member Reward does not apply to your membership fee.
- It is issued once per calendar billing cycle for each customer. Cancelling and rejoining within the same cycle does not issue it again.
- If you return an item that had a Member Reward applied, we refund the amount you actually paid for that item after the reward. The reward for that period is treated as used.
Your monthly Member Reward can help offset the cost of international shipping and more. Shipping is charged separately, by weight and destination. The Member Reward is a discount on your order, not free shipping.
5. Members-only discount codes (Premium and VIP)
Premium and VIP include a members-only discount code in addition to your Member Reward:
- Premium: a code for 3% off, once each month.
- VIP: a code for 5% off, up to twice each month.
These codes are for your account only and are not transferable. A code is valid for the billing period in which it is issued, and it does not carry over to the next period. Codes are issued once per calendar billing cycle for each customer, and cancelling and rejoining within the same cycle does not issue them again. Your discount codes do not apply to your membership fee. You can use a discount code together with your Member Reward on the same order.
6. Members-only items
Some items are reserved for members. Premium and VIP members can view and buy Members-only items while their membership is active.
Because these items are for members, an order for a Members-only item cannot be completed without an eligible membership. If you place one without an eligible membership, we cancel the order and refund it in full, and we send you information on how to join so you can buy it as a member. If someone repeatedly tries to buy Members-only items without an eligible membership, or works around the member requirement, we may decline their future orders.
7. If you live in the EU or the UK
If you are a consumer in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you have a legal right to withdraw from your membership within 14 days of joining.
When you enroll, you can ask us to start your membership right away so that your benefits are available immediately. If you ask for this, you agree that your membership begins at once. If you then withdraw within the 14-day period, you may be asked to pay for the part of the membership already provided up to the moment you withdraw. Once the benefits for your first period have been fully provided, the right to withdraw for that period no longer applies.
You can withdraw during the 14-day period at any time, using the withdrawal function in your account. Withdrawing is as simple as joining.
8. Changes to these terms, and keeping a record of your agreement
We keep a record of the terms you agreed to and the date you agreed, and we hold that record for three years or for one year after your membership ends, whichever is longer.
We may update these terms, our prices, or the benefits of a tier from time to time. If a change would affect your current membership, we will tell you in advance and give you the chance to cancel before it takes effect. A change to your price or benefits applies only from a renewal after we have given you notice. We do not reduce the benefits of your current membership, or raise its price, during a period you have already paid for.
9. General
Select Anime Membership is operated by Soir Studio Inc. These membership terms work together with our Refund Policy, our Shipping Policy, and our Legal Notice. If any part of these terms cannot be enforced, the rest still applies.
These Membership Terms are governed by the laws of Japan, and we agree to submit disputes to the Tokyo District Court in Japan, to the extent permitted by law. Nothing in this section deprives you of the protection of mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country or state of residence, or of your right to bring proceedings in your local courts where such laws so provide.
Japan-specific consumer disclosures under the Specified Commercial Transactions Act are provided in our Legal Notice.
