Proration



All changes to your subscription are prorated. This includes:

Changing from one plan to another.
Creating a new rental.
Deleting a rental.

When you change your subscription in such a way that the price decreases, the price difference will be subtracted from your next bill.

Example 1



Situation:

You are on a $30 yearly plan, and you're billed on the 1st of every year.
You execute a plan change half way through the billing cycle (in this case, mid-year).
You have already paid $30 and used half of that (because you're in the middle of the year).
You switch to a new plan priced at $60.

Result:

The unused portion of the current billing cycle is applied as a credit: $30 x (6 months used / 12 months total) = $15.
The cost of the new plan for the remaining billing cycle (the outstanding 6 months) is a debit of $60 x (6 months remaining / 12 months total) = $30.
The final prorated cost of switching to the new plan is $15.

Example 2



Situation:

You are on a $60 yearly plan, and you're billed on the 1st of every year.
You change your plan 3 months into the billing cycle.
You have already paid $60 and used 3/12th of that (=$15).
You switch to a new plan priced at $30 per year.

Result:

The cost of the new plan for the remainder of the billing cycle (the outstanding 9 months) is $30 x 9/12 = $22,50.
The total price for the current period will be $37,50.
You have paid $60 - $37,50 = $22,50 too much for this billing cycle.
This $22,50 will be subtracted from your next bill.
Therefor, the next billing cycle will cost you only $30 - $22,50 = $7,50 instead of $30.
