You pay for a specific number of slots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Annual Billing &#8211; <\/strong>You pay for the year upfront for a set number of seats.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Monthly Billing &#8211; <\/strong>You pay month-to-month. If you add seats mid-cycle, you will be charged a prorated amount for the remainder of the period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I add more seats after upgrading my plan?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can always add more user seats through the Subscription page. When you add seats, you will be charged based on the prorated cost for the remaining billing period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What happens if I downgrade my subscription?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Downgrading removes access to any additional features you were using in the higher-tier plan, but your data will remain intact. You\u2019ll lose access to premium features once the current subscription period ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I cancel my subscription?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. After canceling, you can continue using premium features until the end of your billing period, after which you will be downgraded to the Free plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do I switch between monthly and annual billing?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can switch from monthly to annual billing or vice versa from the Subscription page. Switching from annual to monthly will take effect at the end of your current subscription period. Switching from monthly to annual will be prorated based on the remaining time left on your current plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I get a refund for unused seats?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No, Clockify does not provide refunds for removed user seats. You can only free up seats by deactivating users, and then you can add new users to occupy those seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I download past invoices?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can download all your past invoices from the Invoices tab on the Subscription page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I update my billing information (Address, VAT, Email)?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Yes. You can modify your invoicing details in the <strong>Subscription<\/strong> page. Please refer to <a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/administration\/payment-process\">this article<\/a> for instructions on updating your billing information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the difference between full and limited users?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full users have access to all workspace features, while Limited users only have restricted access to clock in and out using the Kiosk. Limited users may incur additional charges depending on your plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do I upgrade my subscription?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To upgrade, go to the Subscription page, switch to the Plans tab, and click Upgrade under the plan you want. You will be charged a prorated amount for the new plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group related-articles\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"9-related-articles\">Related articles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list related-articles-list\">\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/administration\/subscription-plans\">Subscription plans<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/administration\/payment-process\">Payment process<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/administration\/subscribe-upgrade\">Subscribe &amp; upgrade<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/administration\/cancel-subscription-on-clockify\">Cancel subscription<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As a Workspace owner or admin, you can manage your Clockify subscription, update&#8230;","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_helpful_status":1,"_searchwp_excluded":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[82],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23277","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-getting-started-as-admin-and-workspace-owner"],"acf":[],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"tamara radijevac","author_link":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/author\/tamara-radijevac"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23277","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23277"}],"version-history":[{"count":67,"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23277\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28994,"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23277\/revisions\/28994"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23277"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23277"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23277"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
