# Billing

> Your plan, seats, usage, payment method and invoices.

Open the menu at your picture, select **Settings**, then **Billing**. You need the permission **Manage the organization**.

## Seats

Each member has a seat with a level: **Standard**, **Grow** or **Max**. Guests don't need a seat. People can have different levels. To change a level, open **Members** and select their seat. Your subscription follows automatically.

## Start a subscription

1. Choose **Monthly** or **Yearly**.
2. Select **Start 14-day trial**.
3. Add a card.

The first 14 days are free, for up to 3 seats. If Temperate gave you a trial without a card, select **Add a card** before it ends.

Without a trial or subscription, nobody can start new chats. Work that's running still finishes.

## Usage this month

* **Active guests**: guests who wrote or uploaded something this month. Some are included.
* **Files**: all seats share one storage pool. Admins get an email at 80% and when it's full.

## Payment and invoices

**Payment** shows your card, and **Invoices** lists your invoices. Select **Manage the subscription** to change your payment method or billing details, or to cancel. A cancelled subscription runs until the end of the period you paid for.

If a payment fails, select **Pay the open invoice**. Temperate keeps working in the meantime.
