Frequently Answered Questions
Answers to common questions we get asked. We’d be more than happy to answer any additional questions you may have!
Will the free services always be free?
Yes. All Jetpack services that are currently offered for free will always be offered for free.

There are many plugins offering similar services, and the choice is yours. Customers love Jetpack because they get everything they need in one bundle rather than multiple plugins, and because Jetpack is brought to you by the people who manage and secure millions of WordPress sites on WordPress.com.
Satisfaction guarantee
If for any reason you’re not satisfied we will issue a full refund within thirty days. No questions asked.
Doesn’t my host provide backups and security?
Yes. Most hosting companies nowadays provide a backup service (if yours doesn’t, we’d recommend finding one that does!). But if your site represents your brand or directly generates revenue, we don’t recommend relying on a single backup point.
A backup you can rely on should something go wrong with your host can avoid a lot of panic (and lost traffic) at critical moments.
