# Billing

> Plans, upgrade flow, and subscription management

ClawLink keeps billing simple. You can start with a **30-day trial**, then continue on a paid plan for **\$4.99/month**.

## Plans

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Trial" icon="sparkles">
    **\$0 for 30 days**. Try ClawLink before billing starts.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Paid Plan" icon="rocket">
    **\$4.99/month**. Keep access active and manage billing through Polar.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## How billing works

* New accounts get a **30-day trial**.
* After the trial ends, you need an active paid subscription to keep ClawLink access enabled.
* Billing is **not** based on one free app or distinct integration counts.
* Billing is also **not** based on monthly request quotas in the current setup.

## What you see on the Billing page

In **Dashboard > Billing**, ClawLink shows:

* Your current billing status
* Whether your access is active
* Your trial period, if applicable
* Your renewal date when a paid subscription is active
* A direct upgrade or **Manage subscription** action

If you return from checkout and still see the free plan for a moment, wait a minute and refresh. Billing state is synced after checkout completes and the webhook lands.

## Upgrading to Pro

To upgrade:

1. Go to **Dashboard > Billing**
2. Click **Upgrade to Pro**
3. Complete checkout in Polar
4. Return to the dashboard and refresh if needed

Your paid plan becomes active as soon as checkout and billing sync finish.

## Managing your subscription

If you already have an active subscription, use **Manage subscription** on the Billing page to:

* Update your payment method
* View invoices and receipts
* Cancel renewal for a future billing period

ClawLink sends you to the Polar customer portal for those actions.

## Billing FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Do I need a credit card to start?">
    Not for the initial trial period. You can start with the 30-day trial first, then subscribe if you want to keep access active after it ends.

  <Accordion title="Is billing based on how many apps I connect?">
    No. The current billing setup is not based on a one-app free limit or distinct integration counts.

    Yes. Once you're on Pro, open **Dashboard > Billing** and click **Manage subscription** to open the Polar customer portal.
