## **Manage subscriptions**

Depending on the paywall and its status, you will see the following options for managing your subscription:

- **Change billing cycle** : If your membership offers multiple pricing options, you can switch to a different billing frequency, such as monthly to quarterly.

- **Change plan:** &nbsp;If your membership is part of a group with multiple plan options, you can switch to another plan within that group, such as “Basic membership” to “Premium membership.”

- **Upgrade:** &nbsp;This option is available if you are currently on a trial subscription and wish to upgrade to a different plan within the group.

- **Cancel** &nbsp; **subscription:** &nbsp;This option is available when you have an active subscription. It's important to note that, depending on the admin's membership settings, you might need to reach out to them to cancel your subscription.

- **Restart subscription:** &nbsp;You can restart a subscription that is set to be canceled but it still has time remaining in the current billing period.

- **Renew subscription:** &nbsp;If your subscription has been canceled and is no longer active, you have the option to renew it.

> ℹ️ **Note:** When you change plans or upgrade your trial subscription to a different subscription plan, please note that your renewal date will be adjusted to match the new plan. For instance, if your current billing cycle renews on the 10th of the month and you change your plan to a different monthly subscription plan on the 15th, the new renewal date will be the 15th of every month going forward.

### **Upgrade**

When you sign up for a trial of a recurring membership subscription, you can switch to a different billing cycle within the same membership or opt for a new membership plan for added flexibility.

> ℹ️&nbsp; **Note:** The option to upgrade your trial will only appear if there are multiple pricing options for the subscription or paywall memberships available within the subscription group. For example, if the paywall has only one pricing option and it’s not part of the group, you won’t see the option to upgrade your subscription.
