On which plans? All

If you signed up with Livestorm before June 13, 2022 you may have a plan that is priced per h ost.When you sign up to Livestorm, you automatically get Livestorm Free which is our basic, free plan. It allows you to try the platform for an unlimited amount of time. Livestorm also offers different paying plans according to your needs: Livestorm Premium, Livestorm Business, and Livestorm Enterprise. At a certain point you might need to upgrade or downgrade your plan, change your payment method, and download your invoices. In this article, you'll learn everything about how to manage your subscription.

Livestorm Premium Downgrades#

You might not need as many admins or live attendees as your plan offers anymore. You can change your options for your next billing cycle.

Don't forget to downgrade your plan before your next renewal date. For example, if your renewal date is on the 11th of the month and you cancel on the 7th, you will still have access to your features until the 11th and your subscription will end on the 11th.

Downgrades come to effect at the end of the current billing period.
