"What’s changing?
We are increasing the price of our BigCommerce Pro Plan by $50. We will be rolling out these changes to existing Pro Plan customers in segments over the next couple of months.
If you are Pro Plan merchant who joined BigCommerce prior to November 1, 2019, your new monthly pricing will go into effect on January 31, 2020. Your next billing date will reflect your new price.
If you are Pro Plan merchant who joined BigCommerce between November 1, 2019, and January 31, 2020, your new monthly pricing will go into effect 90 days after your first billing date. Your price will remain the same until then.
If you are Pro Plan merchant on an annual billing cycle, your new annual pricing will go into effect on your next annual billing date. Your price will remain the same until then.
