Billing for Self-Serve Accounts
Billing Periods
Learn about the billing periods available, and how to manage a subscription.
Pantheon offers both Monthly and Annual Billing. Moving to Annual Billing can result in significant savings. Performance plans receive savings equivalent to at least one month of free service. On a basic plan, the savings are equivalent to two months of free service. Refer to Pricing for information on costs and savings.
Before changing your billing period from monthly to annual, or vice-versa, consider the following:
- Sites on monthly plans switching to annual billing (without changing plan size) are invoiced immediately.
- Sites on annual billing plans that upgrade will be invoiced immediately, and the site will be upgraded immediately.
- Annual billing plans will auto-renew at the end of their annual subscription term unless terminated in advance.
- Annual billing plans switched to monthly billing will take effect immediately. A prorated credit will be issued to the account and automatically applied to upcoming invoices. Note: if the annual subscription is scheduled to renew within 30 days or fewer, a prorated charge may also apply.
- A site grandfathered into Preferred Pricing that is not owned by a qualified partner organization will move to list pricing when the billing plan changes. To regain Preferred Pricing, the Agency should follow the steps to Add a Client Site.
To change your billing cadence:
-
Go to the Site Dashboard for the site, then click on the name of your site plan (to the right of the site's name).

-
Switch the slider to your desired cadence.
-
Enter or confirm your billing information, then click Continue.
-
Confirm the purchase, then click Place your order. You'll be returned to the dashboard with a confirmation of your site plan change.
