Billing

Manage your workspace subscription, plan changes, and the Dify for Education discount

Billing in Dify is workspace-scoped. Your subscription sets the team member limit, feature access, and usage quotas for the entire workspace.

For the available plans, what each includes, and pricing, see the Dify pricing page.

Manage Subscriptions

Only the workspace owner and admins can manage the workspace’s subscription in Settings > Billing.

• View subscription details: see your current plan, usage, and billing history, or download invoices.

• Upgrade: click Upgrade and choose a higher plan. It takes effect immediately, once you pay the difference for the rest of the current billing period.

• Downgrade: click Manage to open the Stripe billing portal, then click Update subscription and choose a lower plan. It takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle; you keep your current plan until then.

• Cancel or update billing: click Manage to open the Stripe billing portal, where you can cancel the subscription or change the payment method. After cancellation, the workspace keeps its current plan until the end of the paid period, then returns to the free Sandbox plan.

FAQ

Why was I charged $59?

You likely selected the Monthly Professional plan. The education discount applies only to the Yearly plan, so the Monthly plan charges the full $59.

To resolve this, cancel the current subscription, wait for the billing cycle to end, then subscribe to the Yearly Professional plan with the education discount.

What if I already have a paid subscription?

The education discount cannot be applied to an existing paid plan.

To resolve this, cancel your current subscription, wait for the billing cycle to end, then subscribe to the Yearly Professional plan with the education discount.

Why was my verification rejected?

Common reasons: non-educational email, inaccurate information, or misuse of privileges. Appeal via [e-mail].

Can I use a personal email?

No. Verification requires an educational email issued by your school.
