Everything about your subscription. Plan changes, cancellation, payment method, invoices. Lives on one page: Settings → Subscription.

The 4-Tier Model

PlanMonthlyAnnualBest for
Starter$149/mo$1,250/yrSmaller operators getting organized
Core$229/mo$1,925/yrRunning day-to-day operations
Growth$309/mo$2,595/yrOperating and growing the business
EnterpriseCustomCustomMulti-location, permissions, rollout

Every plan includes: unlimited users, no per-unit fees, no long-term contracts. Cancel anytime. Annual plans save ~30%.

7-Day Free Trial

All self-serve plans (Starter, Core, Growth) start with a 7-day free trial. Your card is authorized at signup but not charged until the trial ends. Cancel any time during the 7 days and you won't be billed.

Who Can Manage the Subscription

Only users with the Admin or Owner role see the plan management controls. Dispatchers, drivers, mechanics, and customers do not have access. If you need access, ask another admin to update your role in Settings → Team Management.

How to Change Your Plan

You can upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes take effect immediately and Stripe automatically prorates the difference.

  • Sign in as an Admin or Owner.
  • Go to Settings → Subscription.
  • Click Change plan in the Manage your plan card.
  • On Stripe's "Choose your plan" page, select your new plan and confirm.
  • Switching Monthly ↔ Annual

    On the "Choose your plan" page, each plan card has a Monthly / Yearly toggle. Pick the interval you want and select the plan. Same proration rules apply.

    Upgrades

    Immediate. You get access to the new plan's features right away. Stripe charges the prorated difference for the remainder of the current billing period.

    Downgrades

    Immediate. You'll lose access to features not included in the lower plan. Any unused portion of your current plan is prorated as a credit on your next invoice.

    How to Cancel

  • Sign in as an Admin or Owner.
  • Go to Settings → Subscription.
  • Click Cancel subscription in the Manage your plan card.
  • Confirm on Stripe's cancellation page.
  • No phone call or support ticket required. Cancellation is near one-click.

    What Happens After Canceling

  • Your subscription is canceled at the end of the current billing period: you keep full access until then.
  • You will not be billed again.
  • Stripe sends a cancellation confirmation email.
  • After the period ends, your account moves to a canceled state. Your data is preserved so you can resubscribe later without data loss.
  • Canceling During Your Free Trial

    If you cancel before the 7-day trial ends, you will not be charged. Your access continues through the end of the trial period.

    Refunds

    Plans are billed in advance. Canceling mid-cycle keeps your access through the end of the paid period rather than issuing a refund. Stripe prorates plan changes (upgrades/downgrades) as credits on your next invoice. If you believe you were billed in error, email support@portaprosoftware.com.

    Managing Your Billing Account

    Click View billing account on the Subscription settings page to open the Stripe billing portal, where you can:

  • Update your payment method: add a new card, set a default
  • Update your billing email: where receipts and invoices go
  • Update company name, tax ID, and billing address: appears on invoices
  • Download past invoices: click any invoice number for PDF
  • Subscription Status

    StatusMeaning
    TrialingActive 7-day free trial
    ActivePaid subscription in good standing
    Past DuePayment failed. Update your payment method
    CanceledSubscription ended. Resubscribe to restore access

    Past Due

    Stripe automatically retries and sends email reminders. You'll see a red Update Payment Method button on the Subscription settings page. If all retries fail, your subscription is automatically canceled.
