Upgrading and Downgrading Plans

This page is to provide a more in-depth explanation of FeedWind’s subscription plans: Basic, Pro, and Plus. We’ll briefly explain what the plans include—since more information can be found about their specific benefits on their respective pages—but this document will also clarify how proration works with changing plans.

Available Plans

To see available plans, please visit our Plans page here.

Please note that Free Plan is not available now. Even if the existing user continues to use FeedWind for free, new users need to upgrade to Paid Plan in order to use FeedWind after the Free Trial.

Changing Plans

Upgrading from the Basic plan to either of the paid plans (Pro or Plus) can be completed at any time. For details on plan benefits, visit our (https://feed.mikle.com/plans/).

Upgrading a plan

Upgrading to a higher-tier plan (e.g., Pro → Plus, or monthly → yearly) takes effect **immediately**.

  • If upgrading mid-billing cycle, any unused time on your current plan is credited toward the new plan.
  • You are billed the prorated amount for the new plan’s partial period (if applicable), with credits applied to the next renewal invoice.

Example: Upgrading Pro ($9/mo) to Plus ($18/mo) on April 15 (mid-cycle)

 Action, Date  Cost (Balance) 
Pro fee, Apr 1  $9.00 ($0.00)
Upgrade Apr 15 → $4.50 credit –$4.50 (–$4.50)
Plus partial Apr 16–30 $9.00 ($4.50)
Plus full May 1 $18.00 ($22.50)
**TOTAL May 1** **$22.50**

Downgrading Plans

Downgrading (e.g., Plus → Pro, or yearly → monthly) **does not take effect immediately**. Instead:

  • The downgrade is scheduled for your **next renewal date**.
  • You continue on the current plan (with full features and billing) until renewal.
  • On renewal, the lower plan automatically applies no proration or mid-cycle credits. This simpler approach avoids confusion.

For exceptions (e.g., refunds or manual changes), contact support.

Example: Downgrade Plus → Pro on April 15 (renewal May 1)

  • Apr 15–May 1: Still on Plus ($18 credit builds internally but unused). – May 1: Switches to Pro; next bill $9/mo.
