In this article you'll learn about Billing cycle, then explore Proration, and finally review Invoice breakdown.

Billing cycle

Links bills monthly (or annually at a 20% discount). Your billing cycle starts on the date you entered your payment method and becomes a paid subscriber.

Example: If you subscribe on March 15, your billing cycle runs March 15 → April 14, and you're invoiced on April 15.

Annual billing locks in the current price for 12 months. Monthly billing allows more flexibility if your team size changes frequently.

Proration

When you upgrade mid-cycle, you're charged only for the remaining days at the new plan rate, minus what you already paid for that period.

Example:

  • 30-day billing cycle, day 15 upgrade from Starter ($49/mo) to Business ($149/mo)
  • Remaining 15 days on Business = $149 × (15/30) = $74.50
  • Credit for unused Starter days = $49 × (15/30) = $24.50
  • Net charge at upgrade = $50.00

Proration credits appear as a line item on the next invoice.
