# Plans and billing

After this page you know how paying per site works, what happens after a failed payment, and what never happens to a live site.

## Plans

Your first site is free. Every next site has its own price, which drops as your team grows: the 2nd to 5th site $9 a month, the 6th to 20th $6, from the 21st $4, or ten months' worth a year. There is nothing to choose: you pay for the sites you have. Clients, builders and editing are unlimited, with fair use. Running 25 sites or more? Talk to us about volume pricing, invoicing and your own brand. The amounts are also on the [pricing page](/pricing).

Start paying under **Billing**, monthly or yearly. After that, a next site is one click under **Add a site**, with what it costs shown first. Remove a site and the next invoice is lower.

## The assistant

On a paid site the assistant is unlimited, with fair use: you won't find a number of changes anywhere. Your free site has room for about 30 assistant changes a month. Each site also has a little room per day, so one site can't use up the month in a day. When a site reaches its limit, your clients can still edit on the page and publish; only the assistant waits until the next month. Home shows which site it is, and the team's owners get an email.

## When a payment fails

- After a failed payment, everything keeps working for 14 days, and the owners get an email with the date to pay by.
- When the payment isn't made in time, the team goes to Free. Your oldest site keeps working; the other sites are **paused**: they can't be changed until you pay for them again. A client sees *Your builder needs to renew*, never a payment screen.
- **Your live sites always stay online.** Pausing only stops editing in Siteshare; it never touches your repository or your host.

## Invoices and VAT

Payments run through Stripe, in US dollars or, in the EU, in euros. Under **Billing** you'll find your payment method, your billing details with a VAT number, and every invoice to download. VAT is added where it applies.
