Rules
- You are charged for your team members' seats in your team. The subscription price is directly connected to the size of your team and is recalculated automatically when the number of seats is changed. You only pay for the time that your end-users use the Miro licenses (occupy seats on the team)
- If you downsize your team, there is no immediate refund, instead, your unused paid time goes toward your next renewal/added licenses and the amount of your next charge will be smaller
- Your credit card is automatically charged at the end of every subscription period (monthly or yearly) unless you actively cancel your subscription. For example: if you subscribed to a monthly plan on Aug 5, your account will be renewed (or expired if you cancel the renewals) on Sep 5
- If you stop renewing your subscription, your team is not necessarily paused - it will remain active if you still have paid time left on your record
- If there are insufficient funds on your card (or some other issue with your card), there will be more automatic charge attempts in 1, 7, and 14 days. During these 14 days, your team will still be active to not interrupt your workflow. If the renewal charge doesn't take place, your subscription will be canceled and the team will expire
Configuring the invitation settings
Choose whether you want to allow other team members to invite new users and increase your team size and subscription cost or only Admins should have that option in the Team settings > Permissions:

Adding new licenses
When you invite members above your current team size, you're going to be charged the prorated amount for each additional seat (license) until the end of the billing period.
✏️ On Team plan, every editor invited to a board in your team via email gets added as a team member. Team plan members first start a 7-day trial, after which they become a paid seat. Learn more.
💡 See here how the prorates will be displayed in your invoice.
How it works on monthly subscriptions
On monthly subscriptions, you're charged for additional seats on the subscription renewal date. If you cancel your subscription, the prorated amount for additional seats will be charged at the moment of cancellation.
If you add new members above the team size, your next monthly invoice will include:
- the renewal payment for all seats that are present in your team at the moment of charge
- the prorated amount for additional seats. For example, you purchased your subscription on Sep 1, so the next renewal date of your monthly subscription is Oct 1. On Sep 15 you added 1 teammate to join your account. The full price per 1 seat is $10 (for Team plan). On Oct 1 you will be additionally charged the prorated amount for the time used: $10/30 days x 16 remaining days = $5.33.
If you remove the additional seat before the renewal date, you will only be charged for these few days the license has been there in your account. For example, the renewal date of your monthly subscription is Oct 1. You added a seat on Sep 15 and removed the user and the seat on Sep 20. The full price per 1 seat is $10 (for Team plan). The prorated charge for the additional seat for 5 days will be $10/30 days x 5 days = $1.67.
How it works on yearly subscriptions
On yearly subscriptions, the prorated amount for additional seats is charged on the same day of the month as the day when you subscribed to Miro (for example, if you subscribed on Sep 10, 2020, your team members' payment date will be the 10th of the month. If you invite a new team member on Sep 14, 2020, we will charge you for this user for the first time on Oct 10, 2020). If you cancel your subscription, the prorated amount for additional seats will be charged at the moment of cancellation.
✏️ If you're on self-serve invoicing, you will receive quarterly true-up invoices for additional seats. Learn more here.
Here's how the calculation works: on your yearly subscription that you purchased on Aug 17, you invited 1 person on Sep 2. The full price per annual seat is $96 (for Team plan). On Sep 17, you will be additionally charged a prorated amount for this additional member for the rest of the billing period (from Sep 2 to Aug 17 of the next year): $96/365 days x 349 days = $91.79. Your subscription renewal date will not change.
If you remove the additional seat before the charge date, you will only be charged for the several days the license has been there in your account.
⚠️ If you have any past due invoices caused by an increase in the number of seats, a balance for the amount owed to Miro will be charged as a separate invoice together with an upcoming renewal/ upgrade.
Removing licenses
If you do not intend to invite new users to take the vacant seats that you created by removing members, you may decrease the size of your team.
Go to the Account Settings > Billing > Overview and click Change team size. Set a new team size and click Confirm. You will see a message saying that your account size is now changed and your next purchase will be prorated for the new number of seats. The prorated amount for the unused time goes to the subscription balance and applies towards the next purchase.

What to do if you accidentally added a seat
Accidentally added a member above your team size and soon realized that you don't need the additional user in the team? Here're the steps to follow:
- Remove the user from your account - learn how to do that here.
- Remove the seat.
Once you remove the seat, the amount for unused time will be credited to your subscription balance and will be applied towards the next invoice.
Frequently asked questions

- You're the account admin or your email is stated in the Billing settings. - What currency am I going to be charged in?

- No, as it's one member per seat. However, you can release the license by removing a member and invite another person to the vacant seat. - I upgraded my account but I still can use free features only. What do I do?
