Subscription
Subscription section provides you with comprehensive details about your current billing plan. Here, you can easily access information about your next billing day and review any add-ons you have purchased.
This section also allows you to explore all available billing plans, providing the flexibility to upgrade or downgrade to a different plan whenever you need to. This enables full control over your subscription and the ability to customize it according to your requirements.
Upgrade / Change plan button
The name of your current billing plan will be mentioned at the top, near the Upgrade / Change plan button.
By clicking on the "Upgrade/Change Plan" button, you will be directed to the billing wizard, which provides an overview of all the available plans.
Within the billing wizard, you have the flexibility to downgrade or upgrade to any plan that suits your needs. The available plans may include options such as Starter, Professional, Custom, or the Ultimate Bundle. You can also downgrade to a free plan from any plan, including the trial period, which doesn't require any paid commitments.

Next Billing Date: This specifies the date when you need to renew your subscription, marking the end of your current billing cycle.

Team shared add-ons
Team shared add-ons section provides an overview of the various features available for your team: seats for users, mailboxes, cloud calls, LinkedIn accounts, as well as credits for email validation and data search.
These add-ons are shared among all team members, meaning that the total number of seats or limits per add-on is calculated collectively for the entire team.
For instance, let's say your subscription includes five mailboxes, and one team member has already utilized one of them. In this case, four mailboxes will remain available for your team to utilize.
Please note. If you are using Reply for organizations, add-ons will be calculated for the entire organization (which may possibly encompass multiple teams). Consequently, the team shared add-ons section will display the number of shared add-ons in your organization.
To adjust the number of add-ons, whether increasing or decreasing, you can visit the billing wizard in the Subscription section. For more detailed information, read the detailed article on the system of seats.
In this section, you can increase Email validation and Data search by clicking on the + button.
Clicking on the button will prompt the billing wizard to display the step for email validation or data search, where you can select the desired value from the drop-down list. After making your selection, click "Recalculate Total" to update the billing information accordingly.
User shared add-ons
User shared add-ons section is dedicated to individual user-specific limits, including the number of unique contacts a user can reach out to per month and the API limits available for their usage. The calculation of these add-ons is done separately for each user.
To view the specific number of used and available limits for a particular team member, you can select their name from the drop-down list located at the top of the section. This provides you with a clear overview of the limits usage for each individual within your team.
Furthermore, by clicking on the "Payment method & invoices" button, you can access detailed information about your payments and conveniently download your invoices. This ensures easy access to your billing history and allows you to keep track of your financial transactions accurately.
