Terms of service

Last updated 24 September 2026 · For the FLAMES mobile app (package flame.xoxo).

Who can use the app

To subscribe you must be 18 or older and able to enter a contract, and the UPI account you authorise must be your own or one you are permitted to use. Your subscription covers your own use of the app; please do not share or resell access.

Your account

Your account is anonymous and tied to this install of the app. If you uninstall the app or clear its data, the account cannot be recovered — including any access you paid for — and a UPI Autopay mandate you set up keeps running until you cancel it in your UPI app. Please cancel before uninstalling. What we store is set out in the privacy policy.

What the subscription costs, and when

Subscribing registers a UPI Autopay mandate: a standing permission to collect payments from your UPI account on the schedule below, without you approving each one. The mandate is created and held by our payment provider, Razorpay.

• Today — ₹1. Your first 2 days.
• The next 7 days — ₹249 a day. One charge a day, seven times.
• From then on — ₹249 a week. Every 7 days, until you cancel.

So if you do not cancel, the trial and the first week cost ₹1 + (7 × ₹249) = ₹1,744, and it is ₹249 a week after that. All prices are in Indian rupees and include any taxes that apply.

The ₹249 limit you approve is not what you pay today. A UPI mandate has to be authorised for the largest single payment it will ever take, which here is ₹249. That is the figure your UPI app shows on the approval screen. Today’s charge is ₹1.

You will get a message before each payment. UPI Autopay sends its own pre-debit notification about a day before every charge. It comes from your bank or UPI app, not from us, and is a normal part of autopay.

If a payment fails — insufficient balance, a revoked mandate, a bank outage — access pauses once your paid period and a short grace period have run out. We may try the charge again on a later day. We never take more than one payment a day, and never more than the ₹249 limit you approved in any single payment.

Price changes. If we change the price we will tell you in the app before it applies to you, and you can cancel before it does. A higher price needs a new mandate, which only you can approve.

Promo codes

A promo code grants a fixed number of days of access — no payment, no mandate, nothing to cancel. Codes are single-use per account, may be withdrawn, and have no cash value.

Cancelling

Cancel at any time from the subscription screen in the app (the badge at the top right), or by removing the autopay permission for FLAMES in your UPI app. Either stops all future charges. Your access continues until the period you have paid for ends; after that, the app returns to its subscription screen.

To cancel directly in your UPI app:

• Google Pay — tap your profile picture (top right) → Autopay → pick this subscription → Cancel autopay.
• PhonePe — tap your profile icon (top left) → Autopay → pick this subscription → Cancel Autopay.
• Paytm — tap your profile icon → UPI & Payment Settings → Automatic Payments → pick this subscription → Cancel.
• Any other UPI app — look for Autopay, Mandates or Automatic Payments under your profile or settings.

Menu names differ slightly between app versions. Revoking autopay stops future payments; it does not refund a payment already taken.

Refunds

Payments are non-refundable. Cancelling stops every future charge and your access runs to the end of the period already paid for, but a payment once taken is not refunded.

That is separate from money taken that was never owed. If you were charged in error — a duplicate, a charge after you cancelled, or one you did not authorise — write to harshdbugger@gmail.com and we will put it right. Nothing here affects any right you have under Indian consumer law.

What FLAMES is

FLAMES is a game, played for fun. Its results come from crossing out letters in two names; they are not predictions or advice about any relationship.

Using the app fairly

Please do not try to break, overload or reverse-engineer the app or our servers, get around the subscription, or use another person’s number or UPI account. We may end access for an account that does, or that abuses promo codes or payments.

Availability and liability

We try to keep the app available but cannot promise it will never be interrupted. If we ever discontinue it, we will stop taking payments and tell you in advance. The app is provided as it is; to the extent the law allows, our total liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the three months before a claim.

Changes to these terms

If we change these terms we will update this page and the date at the top, and announce significant changes in the app. If you do not accept a change, you can cancel.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and disputes are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of India.
