# Changes to the Stripe Billing Starter and Scale plans

We’ve replaced both the Starter and Scale tiers of [Stripe Billing](https://stripe.com/billing) with a single Billing plan that includes all of our subscription-management and revenue optimization features at a new price of 0.70% of Billing volume. Existing customers (prior to July 10, 2024) will pay a promotional price of 0.50% until June 30, 2025.

### **What is included?**
See more details about how features have changed for:
* Features available to former Billing Starter customers
* Features available in to former Billing Scale customers
### **What if I had a promotional price or special rate?**
We are still honoring all promotions for Stripe Billing. You will not be charged at the new Billing rate until your special promotion concludes.
### **What if I have a sales contract?**
We have not made any changes to the Billing plans of users who have sales contracts. Contact your Stripe account executive if you have questions about changing your contract.
### **Are there ways to access Stripe Billing at a lower rate?**
We are adding a [subscription-based pricing option](https://stripe.com/billing/pricing) for Stripe Billing customers. This allows you to pay for Stripe Billing with a monthly subscription, which can make your monthly costs more predictable and reduce them when compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. Subscription-based plans are currently available in most countries.
If your business processes large volumes on Stripe, [contact sales](https://stripe.com/contact/sales) to inquire about custom pricing.
### **Can I opt out of these changes and stay on my old Stripe Billing tier?**
No, we are no longer offering the Billing Scale and Billing Starter tiers.
