Managing your billing information

Your billing information includes your payment methods and billing address. Most fees charged by Shopify are recurring payments that follow varying billing cycles, which might not align unless specific conditions are met. For example, if you start on a plan with 30-day billing and install all of your apps on the same day, then the billing cycle for your plan and all of the apps will be on the same day.

Update your billing cycle

The billing period, or billing cycle, refers to the time interval between bills, typically set at 30 days by default. You need to be the store owner or a staff member with the Manage plan permission to update your billing cycle.

Considerations for changing your billing cycle

Review the following considerations for updating your billing cycle:

  • Longer billing cycle: If the option is available for your plan, then you can earn a discount by agreeing to a longer billing cycle. However, you can't choose which day of the month you receive the bill on.
  • Shorter billing cycle: If you choose to switch from annual to monthly billing, then you lose any features included with your annual plan. To switch from annual to monthly billing, you need to contact Shopify Support.
  • Non-refundable subscription charges: Subscription charges are non-refundable. For more information, refer to Shopify's terms of service.

Steps:

  1. Log in to your store.
  2. From your Shopify admin, click Settings, and then click Plan.
  3. In the Plan details section, click Change plan.
  4. In the Pick your plan and billing cycle page, select Pay monthly or Pay yearly. If these buttons aren't displayed, then you can't change the billing cycle for your current plan.
  5. Review the description of the credit card charges that you're agreeing to.
  6. Click Confirm changes to accept the new agreement.
