CodeCharter is licensed per organization, billed yearly or monthly. You choose the tier that fits your team size and stay on it until you cross the seat threshold. See What counts as a developer seat for the exact definition.

Every new account automatically gets a 7-day trial with full access. No credit card, no automatic renewal. More at Trial.
Purchasing now
Starter, Team, and Business can be purchased via self-service. Every account
belongs to an organization, and the subscription is bought for that
organization by a member with billing permissions (typically its owner).
Sign in to the portal and subscribe under your organization's
Settings → Billing page (/orgs/{your-org}/settings/billing) via the
Stripe Checkout page. The step-by-step flow, payment methods, and VAT
handling are described under Payment and billing.
Enterprise licensing is arranged by email:
support@codecharter.tools.
Upgrade and plan change
When your team grows, a member with billing permissions switches to a larger plan directly on the organization's billing page: pick the new plan and confirm the switch. Upgrades take effect immediately, and Stripe prorates the difference for the remainder of the period. Switching to a smaller plan works the same way, with one limit: you cannot downgrade below the number of members your organization currently has (see What counts as a developer seat). The downgrade takes effect at the end of the current period without proration, and you can revert it until then.
Renewal and cancellation
Self-service subscriptions renew automatically via Stripe at the end of each billing period — yearly or monthly, depending on the cycle you chose. You can cancel at any time via the "Manage payment method, invoices, cancel" button on the organization's billing page — access remains active until the end of the period, after which it ends normally. Details at Payment and billing and Cancellation.
