This tutorial will show you how to upgrade your WP Mail SMTP license to a higher level.
In This Article
Requirements: For this tutorial, you’ll need to already have a paid license for WP Mail SMTP. If you’re currently using our free version, please see our separate tutorial on upgrading to a paid license.
Upgrading from Pro to Another License Level
If you currently have a Pro license level and would like to upgrade to any other license level, you can do so from your WP Mail SMTP account.
First, log in to your WP Mail SMTP account. Then click on the Downloads tab.
Here you’ll see the details for your current license. Under the Site Activations section, look for the UPGRADE TO GET MORE SITES option and click on it.
This will take you to the Upgrades page. Here, you’ll see all our available license options.
When upgrading, the prices you see on this page are prorated based on your current license and the remaining time on your subscription. This means you only pay for the time that you use the upgrade.
Here’s how prorated costs are calculated:
- You’ll only pay the difference: This means that if you’re upgrading from a Pro License ($99) to a Agency License ($449), the difference for a full year would be $350.
- This cost is prorated by time: For example, if you only have 6 months left in your license, then you’ll only pay half of the upgrade cost.
Once you’ve selected your preferred plan, click the Upgrade button. This will take you to the checkout page, where you can complete your purchase.
Note: When the time comes to renew your annual subscription, you will be charged the standard renewal rate for your license level.
Upgrading from Business to Developer or Agency
If you already have a Business license and have reached your site limit, you can switch to a Developer or Agency license to be able to verify your license key on more sites.
To do so, you’ll need to purchase a new Developer or Agency license, then contact our support team to deactivate your Business license and receive a prorated refund for it.
From your WP Mail SMTP account, go to the Downloads tab. Here you’ll see the details for your current license. Under the Site Activations section, click on UPGRADE TO GET MORE SITES.
This will take you to our pricing page, where you’ll need to select the new plan you’d like to purchase and complete the checkout process.
Once you’ve completed your purchase, fill out our support contact form if you’d like a prorated refund for your old license.
Note: If you haven’t reached your site limit but still wish to upgrade, please reach out to our support team for assistance with the upgrade process.
Upgrading from Developer to Agency
If you’re on a Developer license and you’d like to upgrade to an Agency license, the steps are the same as upgrading from Business to Developer or Agency license.
You’ll need to purchase the Agency license and fill out our support contact form if you’d like a prorated refund for your Developer license.
That’s it! Now you know how to change your WP Mail SMTP license type.
