<Warning>
  With a payment method added, your subscription starts automatically when the trial ends. Review your checkout total before starting the trial. Use **Manage subscription** in **Plan & Billing** to manage your subscription.
</Warning>

## Change seats as your team grows

As the organization Owner, you can change seats at any time during your free trial or while your paid subscription is active. When new people join your team, add seats if you need more capacity.

Return to **Settings → Billing → Plan & Billing** and select **Change seats**, highlighted in the previous screenshot.

1. Set **Number of seats**, then select **Continue**.
2. Review the new seat count, today's charge and the next invoice estimate.
3. Select **Confirm seats update** to apply the change.

* **During your free trial:** no immediate charge. The updated total starts when the trial ends.
* **On a paid subscription:** adding seats creates a prorated charge for the remaining billing period. Reducing seats applies a prorated credit to your next regular invoice.

You cannot reduce the seat count below your active member count or the plan minimum.

The example below shows a seat change during a free trial. Your confirmation shows the charges for your own subscription.
