Pricing FAQ

Questions about billing.

Can I switch tracks later?

Yes. Switch between BYOS and macup Cloud from the Customer Portal at any time. Existing snapshots remain available throughout the transition.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

Your data stays readable for 30 days after cancellation. Export, restore, or migrate during that window. After 30 days, the repository is deleted.

Do you offer annual billing?

Yes. Annual billing saves 20% on every plan. Toggle the switch above the grid to see annual pricing.

What does 'no card required' mean for the trial?

Your 14-day trial doesn't require a credit card. We email you before the trial ends so you can decide. No silent auto-charges.
