Billing Overview
The Billing Overview page gives you a snapshot of your current active subscription products and add-ons for your community. Your "Subscription Product" in this context is your chosen community type, Web or Full Suite. The Honeycommb Web Subscription includes a web-only community, while the Full Suite product includes the addition of iOS and Android mobile apps.
If you have purchased any additional add-ons, those will be displayed under Active Subscription Add-Ons. Click the Manage link next to each add-on if you would like to remove the add-on.
Explore Upgrades & Add-Ons - click this button to explore all of Honeycommb's add-on options for your community, including the option to Upgrade to Honeycommb Full Suite, add custom domains, hire a Community Coach to assist you with your community, among other options.
Subscription Billing - this section displays your billing status, billing cycle, current billing period, your next payment due date, your saved Payment Method, and your total billing amount.
Renew Automatically - enable or disable the automatic renewal of your billing cycle by clicking the toggle button.
View billing details - this link will open up a side-panel that will display your Billing Cycle, Billing Period, your active subscriptions, and your total billing payment for each billing cycle.
Update default card - this link opens up the Payment Methods page. The Payment Methods page will display your saved payment methods (saved credit/debit cards), giving you the option to delete a saved payment method and the option to add a new payment method.
Overage Charges
Overage charges can occur when a community's size increases past their tier's limit of users. The moment you go over your user count and pass into the next tier of users, you will receive a charge that will be prorated for the rest of the billing cycle. The new prorated charge will be at the new user-tier's rate, charged for the amount that will cover the remaining days in your current billing cycle.
If you lose users and drop from a larger user tier to a smaller user tier, we will prorate your account and give your account a credit at the prorated amount.
Managing Add-Ons
How do I upgrade from a Web community to 'Full Suite' to add mobile apps for iOS and Android?
To upgrade your web community and add mobile apps (native iOS & Android apps), login to your Control Center and go to Billing Overview, under the Account & Billing section of the slide-out menu. Click the Explore Upgrades & Add-ons button, then click Upgrade in the Honeycommb Full Suite Subscription add-on section. Click Submit Payment.
After successful payment you will receive a "Success!" message along with instructions for what's next. Our Community Success team will reach out to you with a list of instructions, which will include a request for text for your App's Name, Sub-Title, and App Description for your app store listings.
