Is the payment collected for all the portal users?

Currently the payment is collected for all the portal users with the exception of the users with the Disabled status.

How many users can be added to the portal during the trial period?

You can add as many users as you wish. When the trial period is over you will be offered the pricing plan considered most suitable for the number of users the portal has at the trial period end.

Is it possible to pay for the portal for several months in advance?

Yes, currently it is possible to select yearly payment for portals. And if you would like to pay just for several months you can set up the recurring payments in your 2Checkout myAccount.

How can I set up the recurring payment?

When you make your payment, 2Checkout payment system provides an Enable auto-renewal for this order option at the Review and Place Order section. In case you tick it, the payment will be repeated automatically every month.

You can stop the recurring payments by logging in to 2Checkout myAccount, going to My Products area and by clicking Stop automatic license renewal beneath ONLYOFFICE product that has this option enabled.

How can I switch to another pricing plan with a bigger number of users?

In case the added users exceed the number of users allowed by the pricing plan, other users will be added as guests with view-only permissions within limits of the purchased license (2 guests per user). You can switch to another pricing plan with a bigger number of users right away and then change the guest roles in the 'People' module.

Once you buy a new subscription,

• The new pricing plan is applied immediately.
• The current payment period ends and the new payment period starts.
• Change from the first payment (for the current pricing plan) is redistributed according to the new pricing plan. The new payment period also extends according to the change. See the following question to find out more details on how it is calculated.

I switched to a new pricing plan with a bigger number of users while my current payment period has not yet ended. How is the end date of the new payment period calculated?

The change (i.e. the amount of money for unused days of the first payment period) is redistributed according to the new pricing plan, and the new payment period extends to the calculated number of days. The following example illustrates the case when you switch from the monthly Business pricing plan with 3 users to the one with 5 users:

Payment	Number of users	Price	Price per user/day ($n)	Payment date	Unused days	Change	Days extension	End date of payment period
			{Price}/{Number of days in a month}		{Number of days in a month}-{2nd payment date}	{Unused days}*{($n) for the 1st payment}	{Change}/{($n) for the 2nd payment}
1st	3 active users	$18	$18/31=$0.58	January, 1	31-3=28 days	28 days*$0.58/day = $16.24	-	February, 1
2nd	5 active users	$30	$30/31=$0.96	January, 3	-	-	$16.24/$0.96=16.9	February, 3 + Days extension February, 3 + 16.9 = February, 19

How can I switch to another pricing plan with a smaller number of users?

In case the number of users is changed to a smaller value during the current payment period, no money will be returned, but starting with the next payment period the price will be changed.

How can I switch from the Business pricing plan to the Startup pricing plan?

To be able to switch to the Startup pricing plan, you should disable some services which are available for the Business pricing plan only:

• LDAP,
• SSO,
• automatic backup,
• DNS in the Portal settings,

• 5 active users - other users should be disabled,
• 1 administrator,
• 0 guests,
