# Change plan

> This page is about FlutterFlow (the app builder you use by describing your app), not FlutterFlow Studio.

Choose a paid plan, upgrade from Basic or Pro, or move to a lower plan from Plan & usage.

Choose or change your plan and its [allowance](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/glossary#teammates-plans-and-allowance) on **Plan & usage** in the account menu.

## Plan picker {#plan-picker}

The plan picker shows the three paid plans side by side: **Basic**, **Pro**, and **Max**. Each plan shows its monthly price and one button. The picker marks your current plan **Your plan** and its recommended plan **Suggested**.

Stripe takes the payment in the picker. Prices exclude tax. The checkout adds tax based on your location.

Plan prices depend on the country of your internet connection, so using a VPN or traveling can change them, and they may be lower than the US prices.

Upgrading from Pro to Max keeps your Pro currency and regional pricing. Refill prices use your plan's currency regardless of your location.

## Choose a plan {#choose-a-plan}

If you're on **Free**, start a paid plan:

1. In the account menu, select **Plan & usage**.
2. Under **Current plan**, click **Choose a plan**.
3. Under the plan that you want, click **Choose Basic**, **Choose Pro**, or **Choose Max**.
4. Complete the payment in the checkout.
5. When the picker shows **Welcome to** and your plan's name, click **Start building**.

You're on your new plan, and its monthly allowance starts right away. Stripe emails your receipt.

## Upgrade from Basic {#upgrade-from-basic}

When you upgrade from **Basic** to **Pro** or **Max**, the new plan replaces **Basic**, and you get credit for your unused **Basic** time:

1. In the account menu, select **Plan & usage**.
2. Click **Change plan**.
3. Under the plan that you want, click **Upgrade to Pro** or **Upgrade to Max**.

   A note above the checkout says how much credit for unused **Basic** time comes off today's payment. **Basic** ends when you pay.

4. Complete the payment in the checkout.
5. When the picker shows **Welcome to** and your plan's name, click **Start building**.

## Upgrade from Pro to Max {#upgrade-to-max}

When you upgrade from **Pro** to **Max**, **Max** starts right away, and you pay today for the rest of your billing month (or year if you pay yearly):

1. In the account menu, select **Plan & usage**.
2. Under **Need to build more?**, click **Upgrade to Max**.

   The **Upgrade to Max?** dialog shows the amount **Due today** and your **Next payment** with its date. If you pay yearly, it shows your **Renewal rate** instead of **Next payment**. Today's amount includes any credit for unused **Pro** time.

3. Click **Pay {amount} and upgrade**.

4. When you see **Welcome to Max**, click **Start building**.

## Move to a lower plan {#move-to-a-lower-plan}

To move from a **Pro** or **Max** plan you own to a lower paid plan, cancel your current plan and then select the lower plan after your current billing period ends. Three cases work differently:

- **Agency plan:** Change your plan in FlutterFlow Studio (**Plan & usage** shows **Manage in FlutterFlow Studio** instead of **Change plan**).
- **Studio team with more than two members on Max:** Move to **Pro** in Studio (clicking **Change plan** shows **Manage in FlutterFlow Studio** under **Pro**).
- **Failed last payment:** Pay the overdue balance before canceling or downgrading (**Plan & usage** shows **Complete payment** instead of **Change plan**).

For example, to move from **Pro** to **Basic**:

1. On **Plan & usage**, click **Change plan**.
2. Under **Basic**, click **Cancel Pro first**.
3. In the **Cancel Pro?** dialog, click **Cancel Pro**.

   You keep **Pro** and its refills until your billing period ends. At that point, your Studio plan ends too (for your whole Studio team, if the dialog names one) and your account switches to **Free**. Until **Pro** ends, **Basic** is disabled and shows **Choose after** with the end date.

4. After your billing period ends, click **Choose a plan** on **Plan & usage**, and then click **Choose Basic**.

FlutterFlow charges you for **Basic** only when you choose it. To stay on **Pro** before your billing period ends, click **Keep Pro** on **Plan & usage**.

## Troubleshooting {#if-something-goes-wrong}

- If a payment for your plan didn't complete, see [Troubleshoot your account and plan](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/troubleshoot-account#plan-payment-needs-attention).
- If a plan's button says **Manage in FlutterFlow Studio**, see [Troubleshoot your account and plan](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/troubleshoot-account#managed-in-studio).
- To cancel your plan without choosing another one, see [Cancel plan](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/cancel-plan).
