How to cite BioRender with your unique figure URL

When exporting your figure for publishing, you must export a publication license and cite BioRender using your unique figure URL (included in the publication license) to allow readers to click on the citation and view your figure. You will have the ability to determine the level of access a reader has when viewing your figure. To learn more about reader permissions and figure accessibility, please see the CC-BY Publishing and Reader Permissions article.

Whether you are using an original figure, reusing a template as-is without any content or design modifications, or citing a figure from an adapted template, you can copy your unique citation and place this in the figure caption, citations list, or footnotes/acknowledgments at the end of the article.

Of course, you can adapt the citation to match your citation style.

How to cite a published template

For templates published in the template gallery, please see the following:

• Citing a template, with modifications made to the template:
  • <AuthorLastName>, <AuthorFirstYear> (CurrentYear) Adapted from “FullTemplateName”. Retrieved from https://app.biorender.com/biorender-templates 
    
    
• Citing a template, without modifications made to the template:
  • <AuthorLastName>, <AuthorFirstYear> (CurrentYear). Reprinted from “FullTemplateName”. Retrieved from https://app.biorender.com/biorender-templates

Our citations follow APA style formatting, but you can adapt the citation to match your citation style as long as the unique figure URL link is not deleted.

Why was I charged after my Free Trial ended?

To start a 14-day Free Trial, you must input credit card information and select a subscription type and billing cycle. Once the Free Trial ends, the selected subscription starts, and your credit card is charged. This ensures there is no lapse in Premium access when transferring from your Trial to a paid subscription.

Note: The 14-Day Free Trial is a one-time offer. If you previously had a Trial, you'll be charged immediately upon upgrading.

Why was I charged after canceling my subscription?

Setting a cancelation applies the cancelation to the end of your current billing cycle, allowing you to use Premium features until the cycle's completion.

Why was I charged after pausing my subscription?

Pauses are applied to monthly subscriptions one billing cycle at a time, up to three times within a subscription's lifetime. When paused, your account is downgraded to BioRender Basic and your subscription does not renew for the billing cycle. Once a pause ends, your monthly subscription automatically reactivates and renews with the new billing cycle.

Why did my subscription renew early?

BioRender, based in Toronto, Canada, follows the Eastern Time Zone for subscription dates and times. To avoid renewal charges, cancel your subscription at least one day before the renewal date.

What are my billing cycle options?

There are monthly, annual, and semester (4-month) billing cycle options, depending on the subscription selected. All subscriptions are set to automatically renew at the end of the billing cycle unless canceled or paused. Renewal reminders are automatically sent to your billing email address seven days before a new billing cycle.

Why was I charged when I have institutional access?

It’s wonderful that you have access to BioRender Premium through your lab, institution, team, or company! Please contact our Support team via chat for assistance with canceling your personal subscription.

Are taxes applied to my subscription?

If you reside in Canada or the United States, additional taxes may apply to your subscription based on your billing address and local regulations. If your purchasing institution is tax-exempt, please see this article to learn more about where to send your tax-exemption certificate.

Do foreign transaction fees and exchange rates apply to my transactions?

If you live outside Canada, your bank or credit card issuer may charge foreign transaction fees. Your banking institution would be able to discuss such fees in more detail if applicable.

All BioRender subscriptions are billed in US Dollars. For specific exchange rate details, please contact your bank.

Why was I charged for a subscription?

To help you manage your subscriptions effectively, it's important to keep track of your accounts and billing details. If you have multiple accounts, there is a possibility of incurring charges if each account has an active subscription. Please ensure you monitor your BioRender subscriptions to prevent any unexpected charges.

If you are purchasing on behalf of another user, please let us know, and we can update the billing account to include your email to receive billing notices.

For further assistance, please reach out to us through chat or email (support@biorender.com). We're here to help!

If you'd like to cancel your free trial and start your subscription early, please follow the instructions outlined in this article!

Why was I charged after cancelling my subscription?

Unless cancelled, our subscriptions and free trials are set to automatically renew at the end of your chosen billing cycle (e.g. after one month for monthly plans, one year for annual plans, or four months for undergraduate plans). This means if a subscription is cancelled after its renewal date, a charge attempt will still be made to the credit card on file. The end date of your plan can be found in the Plan & Billing tab.

That being said, we completely understand the frustration of being charged unexpectedly. We consider this to be a refund request and ask that you click here.

Why was my subscription cancelled without my knowledge?

If you've noticed that your subscription has been cancelled without your knowledge, it may be due to outstanding payments associated with your account.

Unless cancelled, we process BioRender subscription payments on the same day every month or year; however, if our payment attempts are unsuccessful after retrying four times within four weeks, your subscription may be automatically cancelled. This can also occur if you have an expired credit card on file. To avoid this, we ask that you please remember to update your billing information as needed!

If you would like to re-activate your subscription, you can certainly upgrade from your Account page! Simply follow the steps outlined in this article, and your plan should be up and running in no time 🥳

How will I know when I am approaching the end of my billing period?

Life can get busy, so we definitely understand how easy it is to forget when a payment is due. We try to help out our users by sending out email reminders about 7 days before a cycle is set to renew!

This reminder will be sent to the email associated with your BioRender account for both monthly and annual subscriptions and free trials. If you receive this reminder and choose to cancel, simply do so before the end of the period and you will not be charged for the upcoming cycle.

Can I cancel my subscription after one month?

If you are subscribed to a monthly billing cycle, you are certainly able to cancel after one month.

Along with amazing premium features, monthly subscriptions provide the benefit of pausing or cancelling your account when you don't need it for the month. Here is what you would select for monthly billing at the checkout:

When you are ready to return, simply re-subscribe and your account and illustrations will be there just as you left them 🎉

What will happen to my illustrations after I cancel my subscription?

After cancelling your premium subscription, your account will be downgraded back to our free plan - BioRender Basic. While on this plan, your illustrations will still be visible; however, you are only able to open and edit 5 illustrations at a time. If you choose to delete those illustrations, more will become available.

If you decide to re-subscribe to a premium plan, you will be able to open and edit as many illustrations as you'd like without limitations 💙

Definitions:

Completed Graphic: Includes any published or printed material, including websites and social media, containing BioRender Content.

CC-BY 4.0 license: Refers to the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) 4.0 license. It allows others to distribute, remix, adapt, and build upon the original work, as long as they give proper credit to the creator.  Most Open Access journals publish articles under this licensing model in support of open science communication.  

Publication License: This refers to the written permission from BioRender that allows users to publish or share the scientific figures they have created using BioRender in external publications such as journals, articles, or presentations.

For Authors:

When you (the author) publish your figure (Completed Graphic) in an Open Access journal subject CC-BY licensing (after you generate a Publication License in BioRender), that means your figure will be available for viewing, modification and re-use by a journal reader.  

When a journal reader wants to view your published figure in full resolution:

1. They will need to click on the unique figure URL link included with your published figure.
2. This action will take the reader to a visitor landing page which includes a full resolution image of your figure, citation and licensing information.  

3. The reader will need to select Request an editable version on the visitor page if the reader wishes to use and make edits to your figure as permitted under the CC-BY licensing of the Open Access journal.

4. This allows them to request to adapt your figure to be a BioRender public template for readers to view, copy, and modify the figure. You can determine the level of access you’d like to grant.

Please note that disabling public access for an open-access figure published under a CC-BY license will make the figure inaccessible to everyone and any CC-BY publication license granted for this figure will be revoked.

For Open-Access Journal Readers:  

The re-use/modification options below are available after the reader requests the author to adapt their figure as a BioRender template and the author has granted such access.   

1. View-Only/Free Plan Use: A reader who wishes to only view the Completed Graphic may do so in the BioRender Services as either a BioRender Free Plan user or simply as a viewer. By becoming a BioRender Free Plan user, the reader may view, modify (as permitted by author) and re-use the Completed Graphic as permitted under BioRender’s Basic License Terms (e.g. personal use only, no publishing or commercial use permitted).  
2. Re-Use/Publish with No Modifications:  For any re-use and re-publication of a Completed Graphic with no modification(s) to the Completed Graphic made by the reader, a reader may do so by citing the original author using the citation noted in the BioRender-hosted visitor landing page that displays the Completed Graphic. The reader must also comply with the underlying License Terms which apply to the Completed Graphic (e.g. no commercial use for Academic License). 
3. Re-Use/Publish with Modifications: For any re-use and re-publication of a Completed Graphic with any modification(s) made by the reader (e.g. adding onto, deleting components of, or other editing of the Completed Graphic for subsequent publishing use), the reader may do so by becoming a BioRender user themselves under either a paid Academic or Industry Plan, citing the original author using the unique figure URL with the Completed Graphic and complying with the applicable License Terms.  Please see our Academic and Industry License Terms for the use permissions and restrictions for the Academic and Industry plans.

Hey there!

We’ve heard the recent concerns from our customers regarding figure ownership, the ability to publish in Open Access journals, and the first author citation requirement for publications. To address these, we’ve made important enhancements to our publication and citation requirements, as well as updates to the associated terms.

These updates are meant to improve your experience with BioRender and are effective as of September 5, 2024. You don’t need to do anything differently — just continue using BioRender, and you’ll start benefiting from these improvements automatically. By continuing to use BioRender, you’re agreeing to these changes. 

We have updated our Terms of Service, Academic License Terms, Industry License Terms, Basic License Terms, User Content Terms and Help Center articles as described below.  

All BioRender customers/users will need to follow our new publication and citation requirements if you would like to publish your Completed Graphics.

Summary of Changes:

CITATIONS AND OPEN ACCESS PUBLICATIONS: We have updated all of our License Terms and Help Center articles to refer to and describe our new citation requirement for publishing a Completed Graphic. In short, by following the new citation requirement, you may publish your Completed Graphic in an article submitted to journals, such as Open-Access journals that are subject to CC-BY licensing.  

• You’ll need to generate a Publication License in the BioRender webapp and use the citation provided in the Publication License in the article (as a figure caption or footnote).
• This new citation requirement now gives a BioRender user more control over their figures when they publish them in an article that allows further sharing (such as Open-Access articles).   
• Read more about the Publication License and new citation workflow in our Help Center article here: Citing BioRender     

FIGURE OWNERSHIP CLARIFICATION: We have added plain English commentary for our Basic License Terms, Academic License Terms, Industry License Terms and User Content Terms to make it easier for users to understand the legal language. The commentary is intended to clarify, among other things, the ownership rights on figures created in BioRender and modifications made to our BioRender icons/templates. In short, we don’t own the work you create in BioRender - we only intend to own, and continue to own, our library icons and templates.   

CHANGES TO THE NAMED FIRST/CO-FIRST AUTHOR LISTING REQUIREMENT: We have edited Section 1(e)(i)(E) of our Terms of Service and our Help Center articles so that a BioRender user on an Academic Lab/Institution plan or an Industry Team/Enterprise plan is no longer required to be listed as a named author of any publication article as long as our citation requirements are followed. If a BioRender user is on any Individual plan, the user must be listed as either the first, co-first or the last author of the article.  Read more about these requirements here.

If you have any questions or concerns, open the chat messenger (on the bottom right corner) or email us at (support@biorender.com).

To ensure our users are always able to identify the source of the content they are viewing, we require that any BioRender Content is credited appropriately. 

Except as expressly granted in our Terms of Service (including the relevant content license that applies to your subscription), we retain all rights, title and interest in and to our icons & templates in our BioRender library (what we call our “BioRender Content”). Since the ownership of BioRender Content belongs to BioRender, credit of that ownership with your unique citation ensures proper usage in line with the relevant content license that applies to your subscription.

How to Cite BioRender with a Publication License

When exporting your figure for publishing, you must export a publication license and use the provided citation that references BioRender and your unique figure URL (included in the Publication License). This citation can be placed wherever you see fit - such as in the figure caption, references page, acknowledgements section, etc.
 

The unique figure URL will allow readers to click on the citation and view your figure. You will have the ability to determine the level of access a reader has when viewing your figure. To learn more about reader permissions and figure accessibility, please see the CC-BY Publishing and Reader Permissions article.

If you are seeking to publish in an Open Access journal subject to CC-BY licensing (Creative Commons), please see this Help Center article:  Publishing in Open-Access resources.

If you are seeking to publish in a Closed Access journal or textbook, please see this Help Center article:  Publishing in Closed-Access resources.

If you’re creating figures that will not be published in a journal (e.g. for a thesis, website, social media, etc), please cite your figures using “Created with BioRender.com”.

***If you are using the BioRender web application to create a figure entirely from your own content—without incorporating any BioRender content or any content from the public BioRender Community galleries—you do not need a Publication License and you are not required to cite BioRender in your work.

If you have any questions or concerns:

Open the chat messenger (on the bottom right corner) or email us at (support@biorender.com).

Citing BioRender in Publications and Printed Materials

If you use a figure that includes BioRender icons or templates (referred to as "BioRender Content") in a publication or printed material, you are required to cite BioRender for that figure. This is because, according to our Terms of Service, BioRender retains all rights to the icons and templates found in our library.

What Do You Own?

You Own:

• Everything you create and/or upload to BioRender is yours.
• The entire figure you design in BioRender is yours (“Completed Graphic”).

What BioRender Owns:

• The icons and templates provided by BioRender (“BioRender Content”) that you include in your figures. While you own your finished figures, BioRender still owns the specific icons and templates you use from our library.

Rest assured that we do NOT own your figures. You have full ownership of your creations, including the layout and design of your figures. BioRender only retains ownership of the icons and templates in our library, which you can freely use to enhance your figures.

Feel confident using BioRender, knowing that your work remains fully yours!

Why Is Citing Important?

• Citing BioRender shows that you have permission to use BioRender’s icons and templates in your published figure. 
• When you use the citation, it also credits you as the creator of the figure. Proper citation ensures that if your figure is shared or used elsewhere on the internet, both BioRender and your authorship are clearly acknowledged. 
• Citing helps clarify ownership of content and prevents misunderstandings.

Ensuring Proper Usage and Compliance

Since BioRender owns the icons and templates, giving proper credit with a unique figure URL ensures you're using our “BioRender Content” in line with the terms of your subscription.

This applies to all license types:

• Basic (Free) Accounts
• Academic (Paid Premium) Licenses
• Industry (Paid Premium) Licenses

Each type of license has specific content usage rights, and proper citation helps ensure compliance with these terms. You can visit this page to learn more: Where can I use my illustrations?

How to Credit BioRender:

Any figure or graphic containing BioRender Content that is published or printed—including on websites and social media—must include a credit such as “Created with BioRender.com” or your unique figure URL, depending on your use case. This citation confirms that the BioRender Content is being used appropriately and in accordance with your subscription license.

Difference between open-access and closed-access? 

• Open-access publishing allows free public access to research, involving a Creative Commons license, granting broader rights for reuse. 
• Closed-access publishing restricts access to subscribers or paying readers, with the publisher usually holding copyright, limiting reuse and visibility.

If you're using the Basic Free plan or you are on a 14-Day Free Trial, the figures you create can only be used for academic purposes such as unpublished grant applications, posters, educational presentations, or unpublished theses/dissertations. It's important to note that you cannot use these figures in published works such as journals, periodicals, or any commercial projects without an active paid subscription.

If you’re looking to use your BioRender figures in published works or commercial projects, you will need to subscribe to one of our paid plans (Academic or Industry). With our paid plans, you have the flexibility to use your figures for a wider range of purposes.
