Your new plan takes effect immediately after you confirm the upgrade.
What If I Have a Custom Subscription Agreement?
If your shop has a custom agreement, self-serve upgrade cards won't appear. Instead, you'll see a message directing you to your Customer Growth specialist for plan or pricing changes.
How Does Subscription Prorating Work?
If you upgrade during an active billing cycle, CommentSold prorates the upgrade. You pay the difference between your current and new plan for the remainder of the billing period.
When you upgrade:
- Your new plan starts immediately.
- The prorated difference is charged when you confirm the upgrade.
- Your next invoice includes the full monthly price of the new plan.
- Your new commission rate applies to sales processed after the upgrade.
- The new commission rate does not apply retroactively to earlier sales.
Example of a Prorated Upgrade
If you upgrade halfway through your billing cycle, you don't pay the full new monthly price again. Instead, CommentSold charges the applicable difference for the remaining portion of that billing period.
Your next billing cycle then begins at the full monthly price of your new plan.
When Does My New Commission Rate Take Effect?
Your new commission rate applies to sales processed after your plan upgrade takes effect.
Sales processed before the upgrade continue to use the commission rate that applied at the time of those sales. The new rate is not applied retroactively.
How Do I View My Subscription History?
You can review previous plan changes from Setup > Account.
- Select Setup from the side menu of your CommentSold dashboard.
- Select Account from the options listed at the top.
- Select Subscription History from the options listed at the top.

- Commission rate

Billing history can include prorated upgrade charges, along with the payment method and payment status for each charge.
