How your 14-day trial converts to a paid plan

Your VeloCMS trial lasts 14 days. You are not charged during the trial — the first charge happens on day 15. If you cancel before day 15, no charge is made.

What happens at day 15

On day 15, Stripe automatically charges your card for the first month (or year, if you chose an annual plan). You'll receive an invoice email from Stripe. If the charge succeeds, your subscription becomes active and continues monthly or annually until you cancel. If the charge fails, you'll receive a payment-failure email with a link to update your card. A 3D Secure verification prompt may appear for some bank cards.

Tracking how many trial days remain

The admin area shows a trial countdown banner with the days remaining. Admin → Billing shows the exact trial end date, your current plan, and when the first charge happens.

Cancelling before trial ends

Go to Admin → Billing and click 'Manage subscription' — this opens the Stripe customer portal, where you can cancel. Confirm the cancellation there. Your account moves to a cancelled state — the countdown stops and no charge is made on day 15. Your blog stays accessible in read-only mode for 90 days after cancellation so you can export content. After 90 days the blog is suspended.

Changing your plan during the trial

You can switch plans anytime during the trial — the first charge on day 15 uses your new plan's price. Switching from Pro to Business during the trial costs the Business price on day 15, not Pro. No proration applies during the trial period.
