# Upgrade or Downgrade Your Plan

> Switch AnyTrack plans at any time. AnyTrack does not refund payments on plan changes. Billing is prorated and unused plan time is credited to the new plan.

Change your AnyTrack plan at any time from your dashboard. AnyTrack does not refund a payment when you change plans. Instead, AnyTrack prorates your billing automatically: the unused time on your current plan becomes a credit toward the price of the new plan.

## How proration works

When you switch plans, you do not pay twice for the same period. Stripe calculates the unused time on your current plan and credits that amount toward the price of the new plan. Your invoice lists each proration line, so you can verify the amounts.

  A plan change is not a refund event. AnyTrack does not send money back to your payment method when you change plans. To read the full refund terms, see the [Refund Policy](/docs/refund-policy).

## Upgrade your plan

1. Open **Usage & Billing** in your AnyTrack dashboard.
2. Go to **Manage Your Plan**.
3. Select the new plan.

Upgrades take effect immediately. Your payment is prorated to reflect the new plan, and all details appear on your invoice.

## Downgrade your plan

Your account must fit the limits of the lower plan before you downgrade. Each plan includes a set number of Properties. If your account has more Properties than the lower plan allows, delete Properties until the count matches the plan limit. See [Compare Plans and Features](/docs/plan-comparison) for the limits of each plan.

  When you delete a Property, AnyTrack removes its tracking data, reports, and configuration permanently. Choose the Properties you keep before you downgrade.
</Callout>

There is no refund for the unused time on your current plan when you downgrade. AnyTrack prorates your billing automatically and credits the unused time toward the price of the new plan.

If your goal is to stop the subscription rather than change plans, see [Cancel Your Subscription](/docs/cancelling-subscription-plan).

    {
      question: "Will I pay twice if I switch plans in the middle of a billing cycle?",

    },
    {
      question: "Is a plan change the same as cancelling my subscription?",
      answer: "No. When you cancel, your service continues to the end of the current billing period and future charges stop. A plan change moves you to a different plan with prorated billing. See <a href='/docs/cancelling-subscription-plan'>Cancel Your Subscription</a>."
