Manage Your Subscription

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 Pro, Livestorm Business, and Livestorm Enterprise. At a certain point you might need to upgrade or downgrade your plan, update your payment method, and download your invoices. In this article, you'll learn everything about how to manage your subscription.

Upgrade Your Livestorm Plan#

You might need to host longer events or be able to add more hosts and attendees than the Livestorm Free plan offers. In that case, you can upgrade your plan to a Pro one, which will allow you to have up to 1000 monthly active contacts.

Upgrade to Livestorm Pro Plan#

1Go to Billing under your account settings and click on Upgrade plan.

• Your limit of monthly active contacts (1)

• Your billing cycle (monthly or yearly) (3)

3Once you've made your selections, a summary of your total cost will show at the bottom.

4Then click on Subscribe.

5A window will open so you can add your billing address.

6Then, enter your billing details.

7Once your payment is processed, Livestorm Pro will be active immediately and will renew automatically (as it's a subscription).

8On your Billing tab, you will now see Manage plan under Livestorm Pro and you will see when your next billing date is under Invoices.
