If you're not already billing manager for the organization, an organization owner at your client will need to add you to the organization as a billing manager. See AUTOTITLE.

Renewing a client's paid plan

If your client's organization already has a valid payment method, the plan will automatically renew at the start of each billing cycle. Otherwise, you or the client will need to add a payment method.

{% data reusables.organizations.billing-settings %} {% data reusables.dotcom_billing.update_payment_method_organization_account %}

1. Under "Payment method", click New Card. {% data reusables.dotcom_billing.enter-payment-info %}

Upgrading the number of paid seats

{% data reusables.organizations.billing-settings %} {% data reusables.dotcom_billing.add-seats %} {% data reusables.dotcom_billing.number-of-seats %} {% data reusables.dotcom_billing.confirm-add-seats %}

After you add seats, the payment method on file for the organization will be charged a pro-rated amount based on the number of seats you're adding and the amount of time left in your billing cycle.

Downgrading an organization's plan to free

{% data reusables.organizations.billing-settings %} {% data reusables.dotcom_billing.downgrade-org-to-free %} {% data reusables.dotcom_billing.confirm_cancel_org_plan %}
