Upgrading your plan without disrupting campaigns

Move from Starter to Growth or Autopilot Pro with a clean billing transition and no avoidable campaign interruptions.

When an upgrade is the right move

An upgrade should follow operational evidence, not just ambition. The strongest trigger is repeated pressure on your current plan boundaries while campaign quality remains stable.

If your team consistently approves recommendations, maintains clear conversion tracking, and needs more throughput or autonomy, upgrading usually improves execution speed.

Common pathway: Starter for setup, Growth for scaling, and Autopilot Pro for mature high-autonomy workflows.

Preparing your team before you upgrade

Before changing plans, align the people who review budgets, approvals, and billing ownership. A fast technical upgrade with unclear internal ownership often causes avoidable confusion afterward.

Document who can change plan settings, who monitors invoice impact, and who owns post-upgrade checks in the first two weeks.

  • Confirm billing admin access in your organization
  • Set a post-upgrade check window on your team calendar
  • Define what success looks like after the plan change

How Stripe plan upgrades are applied

Betatron subscriptions are managed through Stripe. When you upgrade, Stripe applies the new plan with clear proration behavior based on your billing cycle timing and prior usage window.

You can review expected charges before confirming changes, which helps avoid surprises for finance or procurement stakeholders.

Keep your billing details current before upgrading to reduce the chance of authorization failures during the transition.

What changes immediately after upgrade

Once the upgrade is active, plan-gated capabilities become available in your workspace. Existing campaign data, account connections, and configuration context remain intact.

You should still treat the first week as a stabilization period: monitor pacing, review recommendation profiles, and validate that team workflows align with newly available features.

  • No forced reset of existing campaign structures
  • New plan capabilities become available once billing is active
  • Operational cadence should be revalidated in the first week

Avoiding upgrade-time disruption

Schedule plan changes during normal operating hours for the team that owns campaign monitoring. Avoid making billing transitions immediately before major launches or seasonal peaks unless required.

After upgrading, run a short checklist: confirm subscription status, confirm workspace access behavior, and confirm recommendation flow appears normal.

If anything looks off, pause non-urgent changes and contact support early rather than improvising multiple config edits simultaneously.

Who to contact for upgrade help

For upgrade planning, proration questions, or plan-fit advice, email support@betatron.ai with your current plan, target plan, and preferred effective date.

Include whether you are moving from Starter to Growth or from Growth to Autopilot Pro, plus any procurement constraints. This helps support provide exact next steps quickly.

If your organization has approval workflows, request written billing detail from support before finalizing so finance stakeholders can pre-approve with confidence.
