# Folify Billing: Manage Your Subscription and Payments

> Learn how to upgrade to Pro, downgrade to Free, cancel your Folify subscription, and manage payment methods, billing history, and invoices.

Folify offers a free plan and a Pro plan. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings — no lock-in.

## Upgrading to Pro

The Pro plan is **\$5 per month** and unlocks custom domain support, removes Folify branding, gives you access to premium templates, and includes advanced SEO tools and priority support.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Log in to your Folify account">
    Go to [folify.me](https://folify.me) and sign in with your email and password.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Account Settings → Billing">
    Click your avatar or name in the top-right corner, then select **Account Settings**. Navigate to the **Billing** tab.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click 'Upgrade to Pro'">
    Select the **Upgrade to Pro** button to begin the checkout flow.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter your payment details">
    Provide your credit or debit card information, or choose PayPal as your payment method. Your payment is processed securely through Paddle.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Your Pro features activate immediately">
    Once payment is confirmed, all Pro features are available on your account right away — no restart or republish needed.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Pro comes with a **14-day free trial** — no credit card required to start. You can explore every Pro feature before deciding whether to subscribe.
</Note>

## Downgrading to Free

If you decide the Pro plan isn't right for you, you can move back to the free tier without losing your portfolio content.

Go to **Account Settings → Billing** and click **Downgrade to Free**. The following Pro features will be deactivated at the end of your current billing period:

* Custom domain connection
* Removed "Built with Folify" branding
* Access to premium templates

Your portfolio content — projects, profile details, and all blocks — is fully preserved after downgrading.

## Canceling Your Subscription

Canceling stops future charges without immediately removing your access.

Go to **Account Settings → Billing** and click **Cancel Subscription**. After canceling:

* Your portfolio stays active on the Pro plan until the end of your current billing period.
* Once the billing period ends, your account reverts to the free plan automatically.
* You won't be charged again.

## Payment Methods

Folify accepts the following payment methods:

* All major **credit and debit cards** (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and more)
* **PayPal**

All payments are processed securely through **Paddle**, our trusted payment provider.

## Billing History

You can view and download all past invoices and receipts directly from your account. Go to **Account Settings → Billing → Invoices** to see a full list of your payment history.
