Billing Portal FAQs

What if I want to switch plans? You can easily switch between plans, pause, or cancel your plan at any time through your billing portal. Billing is prorated based on when you upgrade the account.

What is a Monthly Active User (MAU)? A Monthly Active User (MAU) is defined as a unique, logged in user who attended at least one meeting or event in the same month. Anonymous visitors and attendees are not counted as monthly active users.

How often will I be charged? Billing can be done on a monthly basis, or you can choose to pay on an annual basis for a discount. You only have to pay for people who create user accounts and are actively using the platform & joining events or meetings (MAUs).


What if I exceed my MAU limit? If you exceed you MAU limit, no one will be blocked. At the end of your billing period, you will receive an invoice for $1.50 for each MAU over the limit. You can stay on your current MAU tier or simply choose an MAU tier based on the estimated number of regular, engaged attendees.

How often are MAUs calculated? Your monthly active users will be calculated at the end of your billing cycle, and will be re-calculated each month so you only pay for what you use.
