/billing/upgrade is the conversion entry point for
changing plans. Every paid plan transition — Free → Starter, Starter →
Professional, switching billing intervals — starts here.
If your account already has a subscription, switching plans now happens
entirely inside Bizzy: you review the prorated charge on a confirmation
screen and confirm. Only your first purchase (from the Free plan) still goes
through Stripe Checkout to collect payment details.
Prerequisites
- You must be an Owner or Admin to change the subscription
- Open the page from anywhere in the app at
/billing/upgrade, or from Settings > Account > Billing > Upgrade plan
What the page shows
The upgrade page is a full-screen, no-sidebar layout designed to make the choice clear:- Trial banner at the top if your account is currently trialing — shows trial end date and a reminder to add a payment method before it ends
- Tier cards for Free, Starter, Professional, and Enterprise with prices, included resource limits, and key features
- Billing-interval toggle for Monthly vs. Annual (annual saves about 17%, equivalent to two months free)
- Plan comparison table for a side-by-side view of features and limits
- FAQ covering proration, cancellation, and downgrade behavior
Choose a plan
Click the Upgrade (or Switch to) button on a tier card. Where you go next depends on your current state:
After payment or confirmation, the new tier takes effect immediately.
Review and confirm
For accounts that already have a subscription, the button opens the in-app plan-change screen at/settings/account/billing/subscription/change. It
shows everything you need to decide before committing:
- A summary of the switch — “Switching from current plan to new plan”
- Charged today (prorated) — the amount due now for the remaining time in the current billing period at the new plan’s rate
- A credit line when the change leaves a balance in your favor (common on downgrades and interval switches) — applied to future invoices
- Next bill — the recurring amount and the date it lands
When a downgrade is blocked
If the plan you’re switching to has lower limits than your current usage, the confirmation screen replaces the proration card with a breakdown of exactly what’s over the limit (for example, “Agents: 20 in use, 10 allowed”), and the Confirm change button is disabled. Reduce the listed resources, then return to the screen — the check re-runs automatically.Trials
The Starter plan includes a 30-day free trial — no payment method required up front. Professional and Enterprise plans do not include trials; you can start with the Starter trial and upgrade to Professional at any point during or after it. When your Starter trial ends:- If you’ve added a payment method, billing begins automatically
- If you haven’t, the account drops back to Free and any over-Free-tier objects become read-only (see Limits)
Frequently asked questions
Are plan changes prorated?
Are plan changes prorated?
Yes. Stripe credits the unused portion of your current period and
charges the prorated amount for the new tier on the same invoice. You
see the charged-today, credit, and next-bill amounts on the in-app
confirmation screen before confirming.
Can I downgrade?
Can I downgrade?
Yes — pick a lower tier on the upgrade page. Bizzy runs a
pre-validation check first; if your
current usage exceeds the target tier’s limits, the confirmation screen
lists what to reduce and disables Confirm change until you’re within
the new plan’s limits.
Can I cancel?
Can I cancel?
Yes — cancel in-app from Settings > Account > Billing > Cancel
subscription. Your plan stays active until the end of the current
billing period, then drops back to Free. See
Cancel your subscription.
What happens to overages or credits when I change plans?
What happens to overages or credits when I change plans?
Credits roll over and don’t expire. Current-period overage usage
continues to bill at your prior tier’s overage rate; the new tier’s rate
applies starting next cycle.
