At the time of sign-up, a credit or debit card must be added to the account for automatic payment of monthly invoices containing all fees incurred each month, including Plan Fees and On Demand (Excess Users and SMS) fees.

Below are instructions for how to pay for CommCare by credit or debit card. Paying by credit or debit card is the recommended method to safely make payments that reflect in your account in real time.

How to Prepay by Credit or Debit Card

  • Pay Monthly Subscription: If you would like to prepay by credit or debit card, you can use your card to buy credits that apply to future invoices. You will receive an email with a summary of your payment once the payment is processed. Prepaid credits will be applied to all fees incurred each month, including Plan Fees and On Demand (Excess Users and SMS) fees.

  • Pay Annually Subscription:

    • You can pay the annual plan fee invoice that you would have received at the start of your subscription by credit or debit card. Note that if you wish to pay your annual plan fee invoice via credit or debit card, you need to manually make a card payment by following the steps outlined here on how to prepay by credit or debit card. You may separately set up a card for autopay but this will only apply to monthly on-demand invoices towards Excess Users and SMS fees.

    • Note: Prepayment invoices are not listed in the Billing Statements section of your Subscription page. Please refer to the prepayment invoice that you would have received in your inbox at the time of subscription sign-up for payment reference.

Do I lose my unused prepaid credits when my subscription ends?

Prepaid credits are non-refundable after 30 days from the start date of your subscription but they do not expire. Should your subscription end and you still have credits left, your credits will still be available in your account for future use upon re-subscription.

Pay by Wire Transfer

This option is available to Pay Annually customers only.

Below are instructions on how to prepay for your CommCare subscription via wire transfer. Please note, it can take up to 7 business days for wire payments to be reconciled and reflected in your account. So please make sure that you initiate the wire payment reasonably ahead of your invoice due date.

All Pay Annually customers will receive an annual prepayment invoice invoice upon activation of a subscription. Please follow the instructions provided in the prepayment invoice to make payment via wire. For any queries, please contact us at accounts@dimagi.com.

Pay by Flywire (international payments only)

This option is available to Pay Annually customers only.

Autorenewal

All new and renewed Pay Annually subscriptions will by default be set to automatically renew at the end of the subscription term. Customers can disable auto-renewal at any point, and instead either manually renew or allow their subscription to pause at the end of their term.

  • At the end of the Subscription Term, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement or your Order, your Subscription Plan may automatically renew at the rate of Dimagi’s then-current published list price.

  • The pending auto-renewal status of your Subscription will be visible from within the Services. You may choose to cancel your Subscription at the end of the Subscription Term by providing notice of non-renewal.  Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement or your Order, the notice of non-renewal must be received before the next Subscription Term begins.

  • You may provide this non-renewal notice by disabling auto-renew from within the Services.

Manually renew

If your current subscription is ending within the next 90 days, you can renew at any time by clicking “Renew Plan” under your Project Settings > Current Subscription. 

All Admins of your CommCare Project will receive Subscription Ending email reminders from CommCare 30 days, 10 days, and 1 day prior to your current subscription end date.

  • If you are renewing a Pay Annually plan, you can make payment as per instructions provided to Prepay above:

  • If you are renewing a Pay Monthly plan, you can make payment as per instructions provided to Postpay above:

Change Your Subscription

Upgrade or Downgrade Your Subscription

You can upgrade or downgrade your subscription to the Advanced, Pro or Standard Plan at any point in time. If you downgrade to a lower-level subscription, please note that the features that were only available in the higher subscription level will be made inactive. You cannot downgrade to the Free Edition.

For monthly subscriptions, please note that:

  • All upgrades require a 30 day minimum commitment. You will not be able to downgrade your subscription before your subscription has been active for at least 30 days.

  • The subscription will take effect as soon as you make the change in your project settings. If you change your subscription in the middle of the month, you will only be billed for the portion of the month when your subscription was active.

Pause Your Subscription

In some cases, it’s possible that you may want to pause your subscription, or your subscription may automatically pause due to non-payment.

Cancel Your Subscription

If you wish to fully cancel the remainder of your subscription, you may do so.

Please note that cancellation is subject to billing terms as outlined above: https://dimagi.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/commcarepublic/pages/2143955299/Subscription+Management+Billing#Select-to-Pay-Monthly-or-Pay-Annually
