Hello,

lets say I have two plans:

- Basic: allows up to 5 users ($100)
- Pro: allows up to 10 users ($150)

A company signs up for the basic plan, but mid month they realize they need at least 6 users so they have to upgrade to the pro plan. How would I go about implementing that and how to collect the difference in payment (~$25)?

Should I update the subscription to the new plan? Or cancel the old subscription and create a new subscription? Do I calculate the difference and create a payment or does the API do it?

thanks!

Hi,  
It is not possible to update a subscription with a new plan. See [Update subscription](https://docs.rapyd.net/build-with-rapyd/reference/subscription-object-collect#update-subscription) for all supported fields that may be updated. I suggest to cancel the old subscription and create a new one. Note that a monthly subscription can start at any day of the month. See also description of `interval` in [Plan object](https://docs.rapyd.net/build-with-rapyd/reference/plan-object-disburse).

Hope this helps

If you set the `billing` field of the subscription to **send\_invoice** when you create it, the invoice will take care of calculating the moneys due and collecting them. If you want to process it manually, you can create a payment or an invoice. See [Invoice Object](https://docs.rapyd.net/build-with-rapyd/reference/invoice-object).
