Business FAQ’s

Whether you’re searching for a business or running one, getting set up on Hello Pages only takes a few minutes.

Finding a business and getting listed are different journeys. One’s about search and comparison, the other’s about claiming your page and building it out. Here’s how both work.

Is there a limit on my business description length?2026-07-11T11:26:54+10:00

Yes, 1,500 characters on Pro and 5,000 characters on Premium.

Can I choose my listing’s category?2026-07-11T11:26:29+10:00

Yes. Every listing has one primary category, plus secondary categories where genuinely relevant. Stick to the most specific and accurate categories, stacking unrelated ones to game search isn’t allowed.

What types of businesses can’t be listed?2026-07-11T11:26:09+10:00

Adult or sexually explicit businesses, businesses operating illegally or without required Australian licensing, and fake or duplicate listings.

What can I add once I’m on Pro or Premium?2026-07-11T11:25:25+10:00

A business description (1,500 characters on Pro, 5,000 on Premium), opening hours, photos, logo, social links, and a map listing. Premium also adds review replies, deals and discounts, and multiple franchise locations.

Can I change plans later?2026-07-11T11:24:35+10:00

Yes, upgrade or downgrade any time from your account. If you downgrade, you keep your current features until your billing period ends.

What happens if my claim gets rejected?2026-07-11T11:24:18+10:00

We’ll email you the specific reason, whether that’s a details mismatch, a duplicate account, or something we couldn’t verify. You can fix the issue and resubmit, or contact us for help.

Can I cancel my plan and get a refund?2026-07-11T11:23:54+10:00

Verified, Pro and Premium can be cancelled any time, you’ll keep access until the end of your billing period. Refunds are handled case by case, contact us within 7 days if there’s an issue.

Can I list multiple locations?2026-07-11T11:22:49+10:00

Yes, with the Premium plan. Each location gets its own listing under your account.

My business details are wrong. How do I fix them?2026-07-11T11:22:30+10:00

Claim your listing and update the details yourself, or contact us and we’ll correct them for you.
