# Switching plans

If you need to change your Overleaf plan, you can switch to a different plan that better fits your needs. Whether you're upgrading to access additional features or downgrading to a smaller plan, the process is straightforward with the help of our Support and Sales teams.

## Options for switching plans

* **Upgrade your plan**: Move to a plan with more features or seats, such as upgrading from a Standard to a Pro plan, or adding additional licenses.
* **Downgrade your plan**: Switch to a plan with fewer features or seats if your current plan no longer meets your requirements.

## How to switch plans

To switch plans, please [contact the Overleaf team](https://www.overleaf.com/contact). Our team can assist you with:

1. Identifying the best plan for your needs.
2. Managing the transition from your current plan to the new plan.
3. Ensuring any billing adjustments are handled appropriately.

### Remember that:

* Plan changes will usually take effect immediately.
* If you're in the middle of a subscription term, the cost of the new plan will be pro-rated based on the remaining time of your current plan.
* If you're switching to a manually billed subscription, additional steps may be required. Our team will advise you on this.
