Free Plan
To support developers while maintaining system stability, WireSocket offers a generous Free tier with the following rule:- Limit: Each Tenant is allowed exactly one application on a Free plan.
- Enforcement: If you attempt to assign a Free plan to a second App, the Dashboard will block the request. You must either upgrade the existing Free app to a Paid tier or delete it before creating a new one.
Assigning or Changing a Plan
You can change an App’s plan at any time through the Plans tab in the dashboard.The Process
- Selection: Choose your new target Plan.
- Payment (Paid Plans): If moving to a Paid plan for the first time, you will be redirected to our secure checkout (powered by Dodo Payments) to provide billing details.
- Synchronization: Once the plan is confirmed, the Dashboard uses distributed locking to safely update your App’s metadata and push the new limits to the Data Plane instantly.
Understanding Proration
WireSocket uses standard SaaS billing logic to ensure you only pay for what you use:- Free → Paid: The change happens immediately, and you are charged the full amount for the upcoming billing cycle.
- Paid → Paid (Upgrade/Downgrade): The change is prorated immediately. Our system calculates the price difference for the remainder of the month and applies a credit or a small charge to your next invoice.
Subscription Status
You can monitor your subscription health in the Billing section:- Active: Everything is running smoothly.
- Past Due: A payment attempt failed. You have a grace period to update your card before the App is automatically disabled.
- Cancelled: The App will remain active until the end of the current billing period, after which it will revert to an “Inactive” state.
Important: Disabling or deleting an App does not automatically cancel a
paid subscription. Always ensure you manage your subscription status in the
Billing tab before deleting resources.
