The price paid at the time of having the MicroChip implanted is for the MicroChip and implantation procedure. Only a very small proportion of this money is received by the database service.
It is also important to remember that we want to provide a database service for the entirety of your pet's lifetime and not just this year or the next - the charges we make help to ensure this happens.
