Account & Billing — plans, trials, and keeping access on

Simple, honest billing. Here's how the trial works, how to manage your plan, and how to get access back if a payment ever fails.

1Your free trial

New accounts start with a 7-day free trial with full access — design, save, and export the whole time. You're only charged when the trial ends, and you can cancel anytime before then at no cost.

2Choose a plan

On the plan screen, pick monthly, yearly (a discount versus monthly), or lifetime (pay once). Checkout is handled securely by Stripe. You can switch monthly ↔ yearly later from the billing portal.

3Manage billing

Open Billing from the account menu to update your card, switch plans, download invoices, or cancel. Everything runs through the secure Stripe customer portal.

4If a payment fails

If a charge fails, access pauses right away and PatchForge sends you to a recovery screen to update your card — your subscription and all your designs stay exactly as they were. The moment the payment goes through, access turns back on automatically. There's no separate "grace period" to track; one card update restores everything.

Because your subscription is never cancelled on a failed payment, you keep your plan tenure and trial history — just update the card and you're back in.
