Payment information
What payment methods can I use?
Resume Genius can only accept credit cards as a payment method. Unfortunately, we are unable to process payments through Paypal, Venmo, prepaid cards, or debit cards. If you are unable to pay with your credit card, you may need to reach out to your banking institution for authorization on the transaction.
I have received charges from Resume Genius and I do not remember subscribing. Do I have an account with you?
Here are some methods to confirm if you have an existing account:
- Search your email for any confirmation emails from Resume Genius, including your spam/junk folder.
- Try to log into Resume Genius. If you do not know the credentials, enter your email address on the "Forgot Password" page. If an account exists under that email, you will receive a password reset message which will allow you to choose a new password and grant access for account verification. If you’ve tried all of your emails and did not receive the password reset email, most likely you do not have an account with us.
