What is tiun?
tiun is a secure payment service that lets you access premium content or features without needing a subscription. Instead of paying monthly or yearly, you only pay for the time you accessed and used the service (e.g. 30 minutes).
Businesses use tiun to provide their customers with a convenient option to access their service so you can enjoy it without having to sign up and subscribe from the start. It’s fast, simple, and designed for occasional use.
What does it mean if my session is ‘active’ or ‘paused’?
An ‘active’ session means you’re using the service and time-based billing is running—indicated by a green lightning badge. If you step away (like switching tabs, becoming inactive on the page, or switching to free content), your session is ‘paused’ and the badge turns gray. Billing stops automatically and only resumes when you return and actively re-engage.
How do I end my session?
You can end your session at any time by clicking the “End Session” button, usually found near the badge or in the interface. This stops billing immediately. You can also simply close the tab or window—your session will automatically pause and eventually close if not resumed.
What happens if I forget to end my session?
No worries—if you forget to end your session, tiun automatically pauses it when you step away. That means if you switch tabs, stop interacting, or leave the site open, billing stops in the background. You’re only ever charged for the time you were actually active.
What is the monthly limit?
The monthly limit is the maximum amount you’ll be charged for using a specific service through tiun in a single month. Once you hit that limit, you can continue using the service for free until the month ends—no extra charges. You can always see your progress toward the limit by clicking the badge.
Should I be scared of overcharges?
Not at all. tiun is designed to be fair and transparent. You only pay for the time you’re actively using the service—nothing more. Sessions auto-pause when you become inactive, and you can check your spending anytime by clicking the badge. Plus, if you reach your monthly limit, the rest of the month is free.

Why am I seeing tiun on this site?
The website or app you’re using has partnered with tiun to offer more flexible payment options. Rather than locking everything behind a subscription, they grant you unlimited access to their service and let you pay only for the time you actually use it.
What are the benefits of tiun?
tiun makes it easy to access content without the hassle of subscriptions or account creation. There’s no need to sign up or commit—just connect your preferred payment method and pay for the time you consume. It’s fast, frictionless, and built for moments when you want instant access without strings attached.
How does tiun work?
tiun works like a digital meter: you start using a service, and only pay at the end for the time you actually used it. In two clicks you can start a session—no signup or prepayment required. When you’re done, tiun calculates the exact usage time and charges you accordingly. It’s like hopping on an e-scooter: quick to start, no upfront commitment, and you’re only billed for what you consume.
Do I need to create a tiun account?
No. You can pay directly without creating an account. It’s fast, secure, and doesn’t require any signup.
How does the pricing work?
tiun uses time-based pricing—you pay a small minimum fee to unlock the service, and then you’re billed for the minutes you actually use. Each service sets its own time-based rate (like a per-minute price), and you’re only charged at the end of your session based on total usage. No upfront commitments, no surprises. You can always see the rate before starting and track your spending live via the badge.
Is time-based the same as pay-per-view?
No—it’s actually more flexible. With tiun, you only pay for the time you use, whether that’s 2 minutes or 30. Unlike pay-per-view, you don’t have to pay upfront for something you might not enjoy. You’re free to switch content during your session without being charged again, giving you more freedom and value.
What should I know when using tiun?
With tiun, you’re not paying per article or per click. Once you start a session, you get full, unlimited access to all content or features during your time—just like a subscription. You’re free to browse, explore, and switch between content without hitting constant paywalls. It’s designed to feel seamless, so you can enjoy the experience without interruptions.
Why do I need to connect a payment method?
Connecting a payment method lets tiun track your usage and charge you only when you’re done—no upfront payment, no subscription. It’s like opening a tab: you use the service, and once you’re finished, we bill you for exactly what you used. It’s secure, fast, and avoids interrupting your experience with paywalls or forms.
Note: Some payment methods require a temporary authorization (e.g. €3). This is refunded after the session—only the actual usage amount is charged.
What happens after I connect a payment method?
Your session starts instantly, giving you full access right away. A green lightning badge will appear to show that your session is active and billing is in progress. You can always click the badge to check your progress.

How can I check how much money I’ve spent during a session?

What if I am interrupted during a session?
tiun automatically detects when you’re inactive—like if you stop scrolling or clicking, switch to another tab or app, or stay on a landing page without engaging. When that happens, your session is ‘paused’ and billing stops until you return. You’re only charged for the time you’re actively using the service.
