Start a free trial, convert it to a paid subscription (Pro or Pro+), or reactivate your account after cancellation from the same **Subscription and Billing** page.

## Starting a free trial

If your organization does not have an active subscription yet, admins and Billing Admins can start a new trial directly from [**Subscription and Billing**](https://app.coderabbit.ai/settings/subscription). No credit card is required.

### Start a new trial from Subscription and Billing

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open subscription settings">
    Go to [**Subscription and Billing**](https://app.coderabbit.ai/settings/subscription) in your organization settings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start the trial">
    Click **Start Free Trial** to begin a 14-day Pro+ trial for the organization.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Begin using CodeRabbit">
    Install CodeRabbit on a repository and open a pull request, or continue configuring billing and seat settings from the same page while the trial is active.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Activating Your Subscription (Trial-to-Paid)

Your trial starts on the Pro+ plan. When you're ready to subscribe, you can choose either Pro or Pro+ based on the features you need. See [Plans and pricing](/management/plans) to compare what's included in each plan.

### Select your plan, seats, and activation timing

<Steps>
  <Step title="Initiate activation">
    Go to [**Subscription and Billing**](https://app.coderabbit.ai/settings/subscription) in
    your organization settings and click **Activate Pro** button
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose your plan">
    Select **Pro** or **Pro+** based on your needs. Pro covers all review
    features; Pro+ adds upstream/downstream workflow actions like issue planning,
    unit test generation, and higher limits.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose your seat count">
    Select the number of seats you need for your paid subscription. This is your
    initial seat count and can be different from the number of users who had
    seats during trial.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select activation timing">
    Choose when billing should start:

    * **Activate Immediately**: Billing starts now and your trial ends immediately
    * **Activate After Trial**: Billing starts when your trial period expires, giving you the remainder of your trial to continue evaluating
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete activation">
    Review your selections and billing impact. If you have a coupon code,
    enter it in the order summary and click **Apply** before you confirm the
    subscription. Add payment information if needed, then confirm activation.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  After activation, your seat assignment mode transitions from trial mode to
  manual approval. Learn more about [seat assignment
  modes](/management/seat-assignment).
</Tip>

## Reactivating a Cancelled Subscription

Returning to CodeRabbit after cancellation? Reactivation works similarly to trial activation, but without trial timing options since you're already a returning customer.

### Reactivate with custom seat count

<Steps>
  <Step title="Start reactivation">
    Go to [**Subscription and Billing**](https://app.coderabbit.ai/settings/subscription)
    and click **Upgrade Plan**
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select your seat count">
    Choose the number of seats you need. This can be different from your
    previous subscription - you're not locked to your old seat count. Adjust
    based on your current team size without needing to contact support.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete reactivation">
    Review the order summary, optionally apply a coupon code, then add or
    confirm payment information and activate your subscription. Billing starts
    immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>
  Need to adjust seats after reactivation? You can change your seat count anytime through [billing and plans](/management/billing#plans-and-seats).
</Info>

<Info>
  CodeRabbit supports one coupon at a time for subscription changes. If your
  subscription already has a coupon, the current coupon appears in the order
  summary and you cannot apply another one until the existing coupon is removed
  or expires.
</Info>

## Canceling a paid subscription

Admins and Billing Admins can cancel a paid CodeRabbit subscription directly
from [**Subscription and Billing**](https://app.coderabbit.ai/settings/subscription).
