How do I upgrade or change my plan?

Subscribing for the first time

Go to the Pricing page, use the Monthly/Yearly toggle to pick a billing cycle, and click Upgrade on Plus or Creator. You'll be taken to a secure Stripe checkout page (Stripe handles the actual card entry, we never see or store your full card number) to complete your subscription. As soon as payment succeeds, your account is upgraded immediately, no waiting period.

Already subscribed and want a different plan or billing cycle

Switching directly between an active Plus and Creator subscription, or between monthly and yearly billing, isn't supported yet, there's no in-place "change plan" step. This is deliberate: it avoids accidentally starting a second, separate subscription and being billed for both at once. While you have an active subscription, the Pricing page's buttons show Subscription is active instead of a new checkout.

How to actually move to a different plan or cycle

1. Go to your Profile page → Billing → Manage billing (opens Stripe's Customer Portal) and cancel your current subscription. See "How do I cancel my subscription?", you keep your current plan's features until the end of the period you already paid for.
2. Once that period ends and your account moves to Free, go to the Pricing page and subscribe to whichever plan or billing cycle you actually want, exactly like subscribing for the first time.

This means a switch isn't instant, you keep what you already paid for until it naturally runs out first, then start the new one fresh. There's no proration involved, since it's a new subscription rather than a modification of the old one.
