The minimum order unit is 1,800 characters with spaces (250 words). If the text provided by the customer is less than 1,800 characters with spaces (250 words), it will be rounded to the minimum order.

The cost of services is estimated in Ukrainian currency by multiplying the rate by the volume of text to be translated. Rates are set for each language pair individually. The most common language pair is English-Ukrainian: from 80 UAH to 140 UAH for a standard document.

An example of calculating a translation from Ukrainian to English:
(3600/1800) * 190 = 380
3600 — the number of characters with spaces
1800 — a unit of account
190 — the cost of translating 1 unit of account
380 — the cost of the order
