# Choosing a Plan

> Pick the right UMS plan during onboarding — compare what each plan includes, understand usage limits, and learn how to change plans later.

Early in onboarding, UMS asks you to choose a plan. Your plan sets your usage limits and which features are available — some capabilities (like the white-label portal and single sign-on) are only included on higher tiers.

## Comparing plans

The plan selection screen lists each available plan with its price and the features it includes. Plans fall into two kinds:

* **Self-serve plans** — a fixed monthly price you can select and start straight away.
* **Usage-based / custom plans** — shown with **Custom pricing** and a **Contact us** action rather than instant checkout, for larger or tailored requirements.

Each plan card shows which features are **included** versus not, so you can match a plan to what you need. As a guide:

* **Starter** suits a single organisation getting started with core account, connection, invoice, and reporting features.
* **Business** adds higher usage limits and unlocks features such as the **white-label portal** and **single sign-on**.
* **Enterprise** covers large or bespoke deployments with custom pricing.

<Note>
  Plan names, prices, and included features are managed centrally and may differ from the examples above — always go by what the plan selection screen shows for your account.
</Note>

## Usage limits

Your plan caps usage on a few dimensions — typically **connections**, **users**, and **invoices per month**. You can see your live usage against these limits any time in **Settings → Billing**, where each meter shows how close you are to its limit.

## Changing your plan later

You're not locked in by your onboarding choice. To upgrade, switch, or review your plan after setup, open **Settings → Billing** and use **Change plan** (or **Manage billing** for payment details). See [Organisation Settings](/settings/organisation#billing) for the full billing reference.

<Tip>
  If you're not sure which plan fits, start on the lowest tier that covers your current usage — you can upgrade the moment you need a gated feature or more headroom.
