# Manage RudderStack Plan and Billing


RudderStack offers three plans — **Free**, **Growth**, and **Enterprise** — each designed for different event volumes and feature needs. You can manage your plan, payment methods, and billing details directly in the dashboard.

For a detailed comparison of the plan-wise features and limits, see the [Plan Comparison]({{< ref "dashboard-guides/billings-plans/plan-comparison.md" >}}) guide.

## Plans overview

- RudderStack's **Free** and **Growth** plans are self-serve — you can sign up, upgrade, and manage billing directly in the dashboard.
- **Enterprise** plan users can [contact Sales](https://www.rudderstack.com/enterprise-quote/) to manage their billing and plan.
- New users who sign up with a business email automatically start a [30-day Growth trial]({{< ref "dashboard-guides/billings-plans/growth-trial.md" >}}).

{{< announcement >}}
Users on the 30-day Growth trial have a cumulative cap of **25M events** over the trial period. They also get access to various Growth plan features like enhanced transformations limits, unlimited Tracking Plans, bot management, event replay, and more. At the end of the trial, they can either upgrade to a paid Growth plan or downgrade to the **Free** plan.

For full details on what the trial includes and what happens when it ends, see the [Growth Plan Trial]({{< ref "dashboard-guides/billings-plans/growth-trial.md" >}}) guide.

### Billing cycle

The billing cycle resets on the 1st day of every month.

## Growth plan pricing

The self-serve **Growth** plan is available in six volume tiers. You can choose between monthly and annual (15% discount) billing:

| Monthly events | Monthly price | Annual price <br />(per month) | Annual price <br />(per year) | 
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :-----| 
| 1M | $265 | $225 | $2,700 |
| 3M | $735 | $625 | $7,500 |
| 5M | $995 | $845 | $10,140 |
| 7M | $1,195 | $1,015 | $12,180 |
| 10M | $1,675 | $1,420 | $17,040 |
| 25M | $2,750 | $2,335 | $28,020 |

Note that self-serve **Growth** pricing is available for tiers up to 25M events/month. If you consistently exceed 25M events/month, [contact Sales](https://www.rudderstack.com/enterprise-quote/) to discuss an **Enterprise** plan with volume discounts.

## Overages

If your monthly event usage exceeds the volume included in your selected **Growth** tier, an overage amount is charged — it is calculated as the cost per million events based on your current plan's pricing.

{{< info >}}
Overage charges apply to **total event volume**, including collected and activated events.
{{< /info >}}

#### Example

Suppose you're on the **1M events/month** tier with monthly billing ($265/month) and you send **1.5M events** in a month. 

The overage calculation is as follows:

- **Tier price**: $265
- **Cost per million events** (based on 1M tier): $265
- **Overage**: 500,000 events (0.5M × $265) = $132.50
- **Total for the month**: $397.50

## Upgrade or change your plan

You can upgrade your plan or switch between plan tiers directly from the dashboard.

To change your plan:

1. Go to **Settings** > **Organization** > **Billing & plans**.
2. Click **Manage plan**.
