Upgrade and subscription
Extra features extend Clockify's core functionality, giving you more power and control over who can do what.
You can enable extra features by subscribing to one of our paid plans. The prices are based per user seat.
Before you upgrade, make sure you're logged in to the workspace where you want to have the extra features. If you have more than one workspace, you will have extra features available only in the workspace you decided to upgrade.
Please note that the upgrade is per the number of active users you have in the workspace regardless of users' roles or what feature they will use.
Free trial
You can try out all the extra features (except from the Enterprise plan) for free for 7 days, no credit card required.
To activate the free trial, log in to your Clockify account and click on this link OR click on the "Upgrade" button in the top right corner and then on the "Activate free trial now".
The free trial is available only in workspaces which never had extra features activated. If you wish to try out the extra features but don't see the free trial link, you can create a new workspace and activate the free trial there.
After 7 days, the trial will automatically expire.
User seats
User seats represent the number of active users you can have in your workspace.
When first subscribing to a paid plan, you must buy a seat for each active user, plus you have the option to purchase more user seats if you plan on inviting more users after.
Note: the active user is every user in the workspace regardless of their role and what feature they will use.
Every time you invite someone to your workspace (or they automatically join), they take up one user seat. If there are no available user seats left, you won't be able to invite users and they won’t be able to join your workspace.
Note: you will be charged each billing cycle for the total number of user seats you have. This means you can have more user seats than actual users in the workspace and you will be charged for all user seats regardless if they are all used.
You only need a seat for an active user in your workspace. This means, for example, that if you pay an annual license for one seat, you can have one active user for a few months, and then deactivate them, and invite some other user who will take up their seat (each time you deactivate a user, you free up the seat they occupy).
Adding and removing user seats
Only owner/admins of the workspace can manage subscriptions and add or remove user seats.
If you've used all available user seats in your workspace, you can add more users by purchasing additional user seats from the Subscription section in the left sidebar.
The progress bar in the Subscription section provides information on the number of used vs purchased user seats. This progress bar is also shown on the Team page which you use to invite users, set them as inactive, or delete them.
If there are available user seats in the workspace, the bar will be blue, if there are no available seats left, the bar will be red.
Additional user seats can be purchased anytime by selecting the Add option.
The option to remove user seats will only be shown if you have more available user seats than used ones. In other words, only unused user seats can be removed.
By selecting Remove or Add option, you will get the pop-up where you specify the number of user seats to add/remove.
There are no refunds for removed user seats.
If a subdomain has the auto-join option enabled, new users will be able to join only if there are available seats.
In case all seats are occupied, users trying to auto-join will get a message that there are no seats available and to contact their admin to purchase more seats. Owner/admins will receive an email notifying them that someone is trying to join their workspace but there are no user seats available.
To help you proactively manage your account, Clockify will also notify owner/admins when 90% or more of user seats are used up and instructions on how to purchase more.
Payment process
Currently, we only support payments by credit card.
Once you enter your credit card and click Pay, you'll be immediately charged and get access to the extra features.
The subscription cost is in USD.
Payment is tied to the workspace. If you have multiple workspaces, you can choose which ones you want to pay for.
The payment is done securely through Stripe. We don't store any credit card information.
Your subscription is automatically renewed each month so you don't have to worry about forgetting to renew the subscription and thus disabling some features (like locking timesheets).
We generally don't offer refunds, unless there was some system error. In that case, contact our support at support@clockify.me so we can sort things out.
Failed payments
If you've had a valid subscription, but for some reason a payment fails, you'll get a two weeks grace period (payment overdue).
During the grace period, you can go to your Subscription section and update your payment information, and our payment processor will try to perform the payment again.
Once the grace period ends, you'll be downgraded to the free plan (you won't lose any data, only access to the extra features).
Annual payment
In addition to monthly billing, you can also pay annually. If you pay annually, you'll get 20% off.
You can switch to annual billing at any time from your Subscription section (the link for annual payment appears on the left side, beneath your current plan).
Once you switch from monthly to annual billing, you'll be immediately charged a prorated price (ie. annual price minus the remaining calculation from your current plan).
If you're trying to switch from the monthly to annual subscription from your phone or tablet and you don't see the link in the Subscription section, go to the Upgrade page and you'll see the annual billing link next to the monthly.
Downloading invoices
You can get all your invoices by clicking on the Subscription button in the sidebar and then switching to the Invoices tab. There, you'll see Past Billing statements where you can download your invoices.

Legacy plans
Users who upgraded their workspace before March 1st, 2021 are using one of our legacy plans: Plus, Premium, Enterprise (old).
You can continue to use these legacy plans until further notice, meaning you will not be automatically switched to the new pricing, and your subscription on the legacy plan will continue to auto-renew per legacy pricing.
However, if you upgrade or cancel your subscription, you won't be able to go back to legacy pricing.
If you want to upgrade, you can only upgrade to one of the new plans (Basic, Standard, Pro, or Enterprise).
If you cancel an existing subscription to the legacy plan, you would be able to subscribe again only to new plans.
Important note: If you're currently using a legacy plan and switch plans or cancel your subscription it's impossible to go back to your old pricing.
