Payment issues

Missed payments

If an auto-debit payment transaction fails, Neon sends a request to update your payment method. Late fees and payment policies are described in Neon’s Terms of Service.

Failing payments for Indian customers

Neon’s billing system, powered by Stripe, currently lacks support for e-Mandates, a requirement for automatic payments in India as per Reserve Bank of India (RBI) regulations. As a result, Indian customers are unable to complete automatic monthly payments through Neon's billing system. Instead, we recommend that Indian customers pay for their subscription via AWS Marketplace. Please refer to our AWS Marketplace instructions for details.

Update your billing email

To update your billing email:

  1. Navigate to the Neon Console.
  2. Select your Account (Personal account or Organization) from the breadcrumb menu at the top-left of the console.
  3. Select Billing from the menu.

  3. Select Billing from the menu.

note

When an invoice is paid, Neon's billing system sends a payment confirmation email to the address associated with the Neon account.

Request a refund

If you find an issue with your invoice, you can request a refund. The request will be reviewed by the Neon billing team.

  1. Navigate to the Neon Console.
  2. Select your Account (Personal account or Organization) from the breadcrumb menu at the top-left of the console.
  3. Select Billing from the menu.

Change your plan

To upgrade or downgrade your plan:

  2. Select your Account (Personal account or Organization) from the breadcrumb menu at the top-left of the console.
  3. Select Billing from the menu.
  4. Navigate to the Change plan section of the page and select the desired plan.

Changing your plan to one with lower usage allowances may affect the performance of your applications. To compare plan allowances, see Neon plans.

If you are downgrading your plan, you will be required to remove any projects, branches, or data that exceed your new plan allowances.

To downgrade from an Enterprise plan, please contact Sales. Cancellation of an Enterprise plan is handled according to the Master Subscription Agreement (MSA) outlined in the customer agreement.

How to prevent further monthly charges to your account

If you are on any of Neon's paid plans, you need to downgrade to the Free plan to avoid further monthly charges. You can do so from the Billing page in the Neon Console. Simply removing all Neon projects from your account will not stop the monthly fee associated with your plan. You will continue to be invoiced until you downgrade to Free. For example, if you are on the Launch plan, which has a base monthly fee of $19 per month, you will continue to be charged $19 per month until you downgrade to the Free plan.

Delete your account

If you would like to delete your Neon account entirely, please refer to the steps described here: Deleting your account.
