Billing
Capacitor uses Stripe for subscription billing. Upgrade your tier to unlock more chargers, higher API limits, advanced OCPP commands, and webhook events. Manage your subscription from the Plans & Billing page in the portal.

Cancellation
Subscriptions are cancelled at the end of the current billing period (not immediately). During the remaining period, you retain access to paid features. When the period ends, the account reverts to the Free tier.
Payment failures
When a payment fails, Stripe automatically retries over ~3 weeks. The account is not immediately downgraded. If all retries fail, the subscription is cancelled and the account reverts to Free. A payment failed email is sent to the account owner with a link to update their payment method.
