For Business plan billing, use the admin billing page at /admin/billing. For individual plans, use Settings → Account → Manage Subscription.
Billing Troubleshooting
Payment failed / card declined
Payment failed / card declined
When a payment fails, your plan access may be suspended until the payment is resolved. Here’s how to fix it:
- Go to Settings → Account → Manage Subscription to open the Stripe Customer Portal
- Click Update payment method and enter a new card or update the existing card details
- Ensure the billing address matches the address on file with your card issuer — mismatched billing addresses are a common cause of declines
- If the card details are correct, contact your bank — some banks block international or online charges by default. Ask them to allow charges from Stripe/ZeroTwo.
- Try a different payment method if the card continues to be declined
- Insufficient funds
- Card expired
- Billing address mismatch
- Bank fraud protection blocking the charge
- Card not enabled for online transactions
Plan not updated after upgrade
Plan not updated after upgrade
After upgrading your plan, your new features should be available almost immediately. If they’re not:
- Wait 60 seconds — plan updates take a moment to propagate
- Hard refresh the page with Cmd+Shift+R (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+R (Windows/Linux) to clear cached state
- Log out and log back in — this refreshes your session with your new plan permissions. Go to Settings → Account → Sign Out, then log in again.
- Wait up to 5 minutes — in rare cases, plan sync can take a few minutes
Charged twice / unexpected charge
Charged twice / unexpected charge
Before contacting support, check these common explanations for unexpected charges:
- Open the Stripe Customer Portal (Settings → Account → Manage Subscription → Invoice History) to see a full record of all charges and what each one was for
- Annual plans charge the full year upfront — if you switched to annual billing, the full year’s amount is charged at once. This is not a double charge; it’s the expected billing behavior.
- Seat changes on Business plans — adding or removing seats mid-billing-cycle results in prorated charges. A charge for a partial month is normal when seats are adjusted.
- Upgrade prorating — upgrading from a lower to a higher plan mid-cycle charges the prorated difference for the remainder of the billing period
Canceled subscription but still being charged
Canceled subscription but still being charged
When you cancel your ZeroTwo subscription:
- Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period — you keep full access until that date
- You will not be charged again after the period ends (unless you resubscribe)
- You should receive a confirmation email from Stripe when cancellation is processed
- Verify the cancellation was processed by checking the Stripe Customer Portal — look for a “Canceled” status on your subscription
- If Stripe shows the subscription as active, the cancellation may not have gone through. Cancel again through Settings → Account → Manage Subscription → Cancel Plan
- If the subscription shows as canceled but you were still charged, contact reed@zerotwo.ai with your Stripe invoice showing the charge and your cancellation confirmation
Can't access Business admin panel after upgrade
Can't access Business admin panel after upgrade
After upgrading to a Business plan, you need to refresh your session to get the new admin permissions:
- Log out — go to Settings → Account → Sign Out
- Log back in — your session will be refreshed with Business plan permissions
- Navigate to /admin — you should now have access to the admin panel
- You are the account owner (the person who created and paid for the Business plan). Admin panel access is not automatically granted to members — only the owner and admins have it.
- If you were added as a member by someone else, ask the workspace owner to grant you Admin or Owner role from
/admin/members
Free trial ended unexpectedly
Free trial ended unexpectedly
The ZeroTwo Business plan free trial is 14 days. Here’s how it works:
- When you start a Business trial, your card is validated but not charged immediately
- At the end of 14 days, the card on file is automatically charged for the first month (or year, if you selected annual billing) unless you cancel first
- There are no automatic reminders from ZeroTwo — it’s your responsibility to cancel before the trial ends if you don’t want to be charged
- Go to Settings → Account → Manage Subscription (or /admin/billing)
- Open the Stripe Customer Portal
- Cancel the subscription before the trial end date
Can't access Stripe Customer Portal
Can't access Stripe Customer Portal
The Stripe Customer Portal is available at Settings → Account → Manage Subscription.If the “Manage Subscription” button is missing:
- You may be on the Free plan — free plan accounts don’t have a Stripe Customer Portal because there’s no active subscription to manage
- To access the portal, you need an active paid subscription. Upgrade first from zerotwo.ai/pricing
- Use /admin/billing rather than the personal settings page
- Only the workspace Owner (and Admins with billing access) can access Business billing
- Make sure pop-ups are allowed for zerotwo.ai in your browser
- Try in a different browser or an incognito window
- Contact reed@zerotwo.ai if it still doesn’t work
