Billing Cycle

Starter & Pro Plans:
  • Monthly or annual billing — annual saves ~17% ($190/yr Starter, $990/yr Pro)
  • Example: Subscribed Jan 15 → Billed on the 15th of each month (or annually)
Enterprise Plan:
  • Annual billing (typical)
  • Custom billing terms available
  • Volume discounts

Tax registration ID

If your business is registered for GST, VAT, sales tax or a similar scheme, add its registration number and it prints on every invoice. Where to enter it:
  • At signup — the organisation step has an optional Tax registration ID field under the address. The type (GST number, ABN, VAT number, EIN, …) follows the country you pick.
  • Settings → Billing — Tax Registration ID in the subscription summary. Owners and admins can add, change or remove it at any time.
  • Settings → Account — the same field sits under the address, and saves with it, to the workspace you joined first. The page lets you change the address and tax ID there only if you are the Owner or an Admin of every workspace you belong to; otherwise it shows them read-only, and a workspace’s Owner or Admins change its tax ID on its Billing page.
  • When upgrading from Free — the Stripe checkout page asks for it too.
What happens next:
  • The number is attached to your billing account and appears on invoices from the next one issued. For registries Stripe can check (EU VAT, UK VAT, Australian ABN and others) the Billing page shows verified, verification pending or could not be verified.
  • Changing the number replaces it on your billing account; clearing the field removes it.
  • One tax ID per workspace. If you edit it in the Stripe billing portal instead, the Billing page picks up the change.
Supported types match Stripe’s list; the form only offers the types valid for your billing country.
