Gestionar la suscripción y facturación para tu espacio de trabajo

As a Workspace Admin or Owner, managing your workspace’s subscription and billing settings is essential for accessing paid features and ensuring your team’s needs are met. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of managing subscriptions, upgrading or downgrading plans, and understanding billing cycles and user seats.

Conceptos clave #

Before diving into subscription management, it’s important to get familiar with some key concepts:

• Puestos de usuario: Each active user in your workspace occupies a “seat.” You’re charged based on the number of active seats in your workspace, regardless of the user’s role or features
  
• Bundle seats: If you’re subscribed to the CAKE.com Productivity Suite, you may have additional bundle seats across different apps (Clockify, Pumble, Plaky)
  
• Usuarios completos y limitados:
  
  • Full users: Team members with complete access to the workspace
  • Limited users: Team members with restricted access, mainly for clocking in and out. These users may be charged with some additional fees.

Billing & user seats #

Resumen #

• You are charged for the total number of active user seats in your workspace, regardless of whether they are actively using the features
• If a user is deactivated, you can free up their seat and invite another user to take it
• You must buy a seat for each active user in your workspace

Gestionar puestos de usuario #

To ensure you have enough user seats available:

• If you run out of available seats, you can purchase more via the Subscription page
• Vacant seats can be removed, but once removed, they cannot be refunded

Only Workspace Owners and Admins can manage subscriptions, including adding and removing user seats.

Navigate Subscription page #

Your Subscription page is where you manage all billing-related settings, including your current plan, user seats, and payment information. 

There are three key tabs:

• Facturación:
  
  • Tracks your current subscription plan, the number of used vs. available seats, and your billing information
  • A progress bar shows how many seats are in use (blue for available, red for unavailable)
• Facturas:
  
  • View all past invoices and billing statements for your workspace
  • You can download invoices for future reference
• Planes:
  
  • View available subscription plans and the option to upgrade or downgrade

Intervalos de facturación de suscripción #

You can choose your preferred billing cycle:

• Annual billing: Pay once a year and get a discount on your total bill
• Monthly billing: Pay on a month-to-month basis

Switching between billing intervals #

You can switch between monthly and annual billing cycles at any time from the Subscription page:

• Annual to monthly: You’ll switch after the current year ends
• Monthly to annual: You’ll be charged a prorated price, adjusting for the time left on your current plan

Upgrade your subscription #

If you need more features or seats than your current plan offers, you can upgrade your subscription.

To upgrade:

1. Go to the Subscription page
2. Switch to the Plans tab
3. Haz clic en Actualizar debajo del plan que quieres
4. Select your billing period and confirm your upgrade

When you upgrade, you’ll be charged a prorated price for the new plan. Your user seat count will remain unchanged, but you’ll gain access to additional features.

Downgrade your subscription #

If you find you don’t need as many features, you can downgrade to a lower-tier plan.

To downgrade:

1. Go to the Subscription page
2. Switch to the Plans tab
3. Click Downgrade below the plan you want
4. Confirma la acción

Downgrading removes access to any additional features from your higher-tier plan. You’ll retain your data, but your access to premium features will end when the current subscription period finishes.

Cancel or reactivate your subscription #

You can cancel your subscription at any time. If you later wish to return, you can reactivate it.

To cancel subscription:

1. Go to the Billing tab
2. Navigate to the right side of the screen and click Cancel subscription
3. Confirma tu decisión

After canceling:

• No se harán más cargos
• You can still download your past invoices
• You can continue using premium features until the end of your billing period
• After the paid period ends, your workspace will automatically switch to the Free plan

To reactivate your subscription, go back to the Subscription page and follow the prompts to restart your subscription.

Descargar facturas #

If you need a record of your billing history:

1. Ve a la página de Suscripción
2. Cambia a la pestaña de Facturas
3. Download any past invoices by selecting the appropriate statement
