VetMatrix vs Happy Websites

VetMatrix ties you to a term that renews itself. With us, you can leave anytime and take the site with you.

VetMatrix is the veterinary brand of iMatrix, part of Internet Brands. Plans start at $99, but it doesn’t list prices for each plan. Its terms set a term that renews automatically, charge the rest of the term if you leave early, and license the site to you rather than sell it.

VetMatrix, quickly

How much does VetMatrix cost?

Plans start at $99.

It doesn’t publish prices for its six plans, from Core to Dominate. Fees are in US dollars and charged monthly unless your order says otherwise.

Is there a VetMatrix setup fee?

Yes, but the amount isn’t published.

Setup, implementation and other one-time fees are due on the day you sign the order form.

Does VetMatrix have a contract?

Yes, and it renews itself.

Your order sets the first term, and each renewal is just as long. Leave early and the rest of the term’s fees are due.

Do you own your VetMatrix website?

No. You license it during your term.

iMatrix owns the site and its content, apart from your own data. Domains it registers for you are in your name, and moving a .com costs $15.

How do you cancel VetMatrix?

In writing, 30 days before the term ends.

Send the cancellation form from its billing team in that window too. Miss it and the term renews.

VetMatrix FAQ

Is VetMatrix legit?

Yes. VetMatrix is the veterinary brand of iMatrix, in business since 2001 and now part of Internet Brands, which also runs ChiroMatrix. iMatrix is BBB accredited with an A+ rating and one complaint in three years, from a customer held to a one-year contract.

How much does VetMatrix cost per month?

VetMatrix says its plans start at $99 but doesn’t list prices for its six tiers, so you get a quote on a consultation call. Setup and other one-time fees are extra and due when you sign. All fees are in US dollars.

Can I cancel VetMatrix anytime?

No. Its terms set a first term in your order that renews for the same length. To leave, give written notice and send its cancellation form at least 30 days before the term ends. Leaving early can cost the rest of the term’s fees.

Do I own my VetMatrix website?

No. iMatrix owns the website and its content and licenses it to you during your term. You keep your own data, and domains it registers for you are in your name.

Is Happy Websites a good VetMatrix alternative?

If you want a site you own with no term, yes: Happy Websites is $99 or $199 a month and you can cancel anytime. VetMatrix includes veterinary tools we don’t offer, like built-in booking, the Pet Nexus client portal and 100+ pages of pet-care content, plus SEO and ads on higher plans.
