How Ori Magazine Subscriptions Work

Ori subscriptions are automatically renewed according to your selected delivery interval and the products will be automatically delivered by the shop after each successful renewal.

For example, if you started a yearly subscription, then the system will automatically charge your credit card each year and you will our magazine to your doorstep every 6 months, without the need to place the order by yourself.

Can I pause or cancel my Ori subscription?

Yes, of course. You can pause or cancel a subscription any time you want in the customer portal, as seen in the screenshot below. The only time when the subscription can't be cancelled is if you started a subscription which requires a certain number of payments before you can cancel it.

The customer portal can be accessed through the magic link you received in the email that was sent to you when you placed an initial subscription order in the shop. You can also access your subscriptions if you create an account in your shop.

How can I skip or reschedule a charge?

You can skip or reschedule the charge in the customer portal. Each scheduled delivery will have a Skip payment button next to it, which you can use to skip the charge. You can reschedule the charge by clicking on the Reschedule button next to the delivery date.


Can I add products to my subscription?

Of course. You can add products to your subscription in the customer portal. Just click on the Edit button in the products card and edit, remove or add products to your subscription.


What happens if the payment can't be processed?

If the subscription can't be renewed because a payment can't be processed you will receive an email with a link where you can safely update your payment method.

Yolanda Olivia Kacili felt the excitement ignite in her belly. What started as a familiar fluttering radiated upwards, settling just behind her ears. At 22 years old, she’d been waiting for this day for over a decade, when she first started submerging herself in the electric blue waters off her West Papua home. Today was different. Today she was diving for her family and friends in Kampung Kapatcol, a micro township in Indonesia’s Raja Ampat Islands.

She smiled as the small group around her cheered. Four other villagers sat inside their small wooden boat, including two other women from Waifuna, the revolutionary female-led body overseeing these waters. It was around a 30-minute journey from the land in search of calm water and the ideal place for Yolanda to do what she did best.

In her red and white long-sleeved T-shirt and black soccer shorts, Yolanda plunged into the clear turquoise bay as it reflected the green, luxuriant trees of the island nearby. Using traditional diving tools made of wood, Yolanda fluttered down over 20 feet with calculated ease. 

Above, it was impossible to keep the boat stable as waves hit the gunnels from all angles. The boat driver maneuvered the boat in small circles, making turns to avoid the kind of surf that would capsize his vessel. 

Around a minute after she ducked below the surface, Yolanda appeared from the sea, still grinning. This time she carried a bounty of sea cucumber and lobster, this coastline’s prime catch, tossing them in a bag held by two women onboard. Then, as quickly as she had surfaced, she disappeared again.

Yolanda’s team wasn’t the only one navigating these waters. There were several other boats as well, each accompanied by a diver and spread 100 feet apart. The ocean farmers collected as many marine creatures as their hands and lungs would allow, celebrating the first day of marine harvest season as part of a yearly ritual known as Sasi Laut.

Sasi Laut is a common tradition in East Indonesia, specifically in the provinces of Maluku and West Papua—an established method of closing certain areas for around six to 12 months to let ecosystems heal and grow naturally. What wasn’t common on that March day in 2022 were the divers themselves. Like Yolanda, all 10 of the underwater hunters navigating the churning surf were women. Since 2009, a unique, women-led body known as Waifuna has led the Sea Sasi, or Sasi Laut, around Kampung Kapatcol, signaling a significant shift in Indonesia’s male-dominated waters. Led by Yolanda’s grandmother, Almina Kacili, Waifuna have become the matriarchs of the sea, protecting their marine home from overfishing and mismanagement while making sure it thrives for generations to come. 

Dipping under the surface one more time, Yolanda cleared her mind of on-land responsibilities, scanning the porous coral mountains for any sign of movement. Under the water she felt light. Free.
