This page describes the functionality and workflow of the Subscription page within the Wello system.

The Subscription page is the central place for managing Wello subscription and payments. It is available inside the Wello portal and only the account holder can perform action on the subscription page such as edit billing details and create orders (add user licenses, change plan (downgrade, or upgrade) and complete payments using a credit card.

License Plans and One-Off Products

License plans define the main subscription. Wello currently offers five plans, each with different features and limits, and with either monthly or yearly billing:

  • Start – monthly or yearly

  • Advanced – monthly or yearly

  • Accelerate – monthly or yearly

  • Professional – yearly only

  • Enterprise – yearly only

A plan includes two elements:

  • The plan name itself (for example Start or Advanced)

  • The features, number and type of user licenses available by default for each plan:

    • Admin‑Mobile Users (administrators & field technicians)

    • Back‑Office Users

By default, all Wello customers are set to manual mode. In this mode, the Subscription page can be accessed to view subscription details, but actions such as adding and removing user licenses, buy one-off product like consultancy and upgrading or downgrading plan are not permitted.

To perform these actions, the account holder must contact Wello Sales Support and confirm the order request.

However, the account holder can request access to self-service purchasing. Once enabled by Wello Sales Support, the account holder will be able to manage subscriptions and complete order directly from the Wello Portal.

Buying a Subscription on the Wello Portal

To access the Subscription page:

  • Log in to the Wello Portal

  • Click on “Subscription” in the left navigation panel

This will open the Subscription board, which is divided into three sections:

  • Current Plan

  • Billing Details

  • My Invoices/ My Credit Usage

Current Plan Section

At the top of the Current Plan section, several action buttons are available:

  • Compare Plan

  • Upgrade

  • Add Credit or Hours

  • Add Users

Below these buttons, an interface displays the organization’s current plan (e.g., Enterprise or Professional). The available user licenses and resources are also displayed, including:

  • Subcontractor credits

  • Admin/Field Technician licenses

  • Back-office licenses

  • Consultancy hours

  • Database size

Also, the account holder will see the renewal date and the next invoice date, which display information about the upcoming invoice and when the subscription will renew.

Button Functions

  • Compare Plan: Redirects to the Wello Pricing page to compare plans and features.

  • Upgrade: Allows upgrading or downgrading of the current subscription plan.

  • Add Credit and Hours: Used to purchase subcontractor credits or consultancy hours.

  • Add Users: Used to purchase additional user licenses. It can also be used for upgrading or downgrading of the current subscription plan.

Orders on the Subscription Page

Any action initiated using the available buttons creates an order.

An order represents any type of customer-initiated purchase beyond the initial subscription. This may include:

  • Upgrading to a higher plan

  • Downgrading to a lower plan

  • Adjusting the number of user licenses

  • Buying consultancy hours, templates, or credits

When an order is submitted, the system processes the request, initiates payment using the default billing details, and generates an invoice based on the selected items and pricing, including any applied coupons.

Once payment is successful, the order is marked as completed, and all purchased items or services are activated in the system.

Creating an Order

Step 1: Select Order Type

The account holder selects one of the available options (Upgrade, Add Credit and Hours, or Add Users). This opens the Order Summary.

Note: If the selected option is Add Credit and Hours, the account holder is taken directly to Steps 3 and 4. Step 2 is not displayed.

Step 2: Configure Plan and Users

Plan Section

A suitable license plan must be selected when upgrading or downgrading. If no change is required to the current plan, it should remain unchanged.

Wello offers five license plans, each available with monthly or yearly billing options. Coupon codes may also be applied for discounts.

Users Section

A certain number of user licenses (Administrators, Field Technicians, Back-office, and Timesheet users) is available by default depending on your selected plan, but can be increased ( buy more) by adding more to the quantity.

Pricing depends on:

  • The selected license plan

  • The billing cycle (monthly or yearly)

Higher-tier plans (e.g., Professional or Enterprise) may offer more features or reduced per-user pricing. Yearly billing typically provides lower overall costs compared to monthly billing.

Proceed by clicking Next.

Step 3: Add Credits

Credits can be added within the same order. Credits are used when dispatching work orders to subcontractors. One credit is consumed when a subcontractor accepts a dispatched work order.

If credits are required, add the quantity before proceeding. Otherwise, continue by clicking Next.

Step 4: Add One-Off Products

  • Form Template L – a one‑time purchase of a large form template package

  • PDF Template – a one‑time purchase for a PDF template

Billing Details Section

The Billing Details section on the Subscription page allows the account holder to manage essential information related to invoicing and payments.

Cancel Subscription

Below the Billing Details section on the Subscription page is the option for organizations to cancel their subscriptions to Wello.

If the organization is in the trial period and has not purchased any license plan (i.e., there is no active subscription), then when they click Cancel, they will see the message:
“You are currently inside a trial period. Therefore, there is nothing to cancel.”

If an organization is in the trial period and has already purchased a subscription plan, then when they cancel the subscription:

  • They will no longer have access to the system after the trial end date

  • No refund will be issued for any one-off products they have purchased

  • No invoice for the plan will be generated at the end of the trial period

Production Period

For Organizations with an active subscription (who are live and actively using the Wello portal, when the account holder click on “Cancel my subscription,” a confirmation message will be shown (“Are you sure you want to cancel? Your data will be deleted at the end of the subscription”) to ensure the organization really wants to cancel the subscription. The account holder can either confirm or return without canceling.

What Will Happen After Cancellation?

  • No refund is issued if cancellation occurs before the subscription end date

  • Access to the Portal and Field Service App remains active until the end date

For example, if the subscription ends on 17/05/2026 and the account holder cancels it before that date, they will retain access to the Portal and Field Service App until 17/05/2026. After that date, all access will be locked.

An email will be sent to the organization informing them that their subscription has been cancelled, and they can restart it before the cancellation end date

Upgrade After Cancellation

If the account holder upgrades the license plan after canceling, the new plan is applied immediately from the upgrade date.

My Invoices Section

The My Invoices section lists all invoices of the customer with statuses such as open, paid, or uncollectible.

No invoices are generated during the trial period.

Each invoice entry includes:

  • Date

  • Plan

  • Amount

  • Status

  • Download option

There is also a “Switch to My Credit Usage” button in this section. This toggle option allows switching between My Invoices and My Credit Usage.

When “Switch to My Credit Usage” is selected, the interface displays all credit purchases and usage. The option then changes to “Switch to My Purchases,” allowing a return to the invoices view.

Upgrading a Plan

Upgrades can happen in two stages of the customer lifecycle: during the trial period or during the production period.

Upgrade During Trial

While the trial is active, the organization account holder can choose to move to production by placing an order from the Subscription page or via Wello sales support.

During this step:

The available license plans for moving from trial to production are Start, Advanced, Accelerate, and Professional.

Enterprise is available only after the account is already in production

Any charges for the license plan are adjusted based on the remaining time in the billing period (proration). These adjustments appear on the next invoice, not immediately.

One‑off products (such as credits or consultancy hours) are charged immediately.

After the upgrade:

  • The customer is moved from trial to production

  • Changes from the new license plan take effect immediately

  • Features and limits are updated automatically according to the selected plan; there is no need for manual configuration.

Upgrade During Production

When already in production, an organization might upgrade because the business is growing. In this situation:

They can:

  • Move to a higher license plan (for example from Start to Advanced)

  • Add more user licenses within the same billing cycle

  • Switch from a monthly to a yearly plan if currently on monthly

Charges are again adjusted based on how much time is left in the current billing period. The adjustments appear on the next invoice.

They cannot:

Switch from yearly to monthly if the next renewal date is more than three months away. This switch is only possible during the three months before the next renewal date.

After the upgrade:

  • The new plan and user limits are applied immediately

  • Features and limits are updated automatically without needing manual changes

Downgrading a Plan

Downgrades reduce the level of service or the number of user licenses. As with upgrades, behavior differs between trial and production.

Downgrade During Trial

During the trial period, a customer may purchase a plan to move to production but then reconsider and choose a lower plan or reduce user licenses before the trial ends.

In general, while the trial is active:

  • Plan, billing cycle, and number of users can be changed freely

  • The final selected plan and quantities apply only after the trial ends

However, there is one important restriction:

If the previous subscription order included a PO number, changing the plan is not allowed during the trial. Attempts to change the plan will display an explanation message. If there is no PO number linked to the subscription, changes remain allowed during the trial.

Downgrade During Production

When an organization is already in production and wishes to reduce their subscription:

They can:

  • Move to a lower plan

  • Reduce the number of user licenses

However:

The number of user licenses cannot be reduced below the number of active users currently in the system

As with upgrades, switching from yearly to monthly is only allowed during the three months before the next renewal date. If the next renewal date is more than three months away, the switch to monthly is blocked.

Refunds are not issued for downgrades. If the change leads to a lower cost, it is handled through internal adjustment rules rather than cash refunds.

After the downgrade:

  • If the price difference is negative (new plan cheaper), the proration amount shown is zero and no new invoice is created

  • If the price difference becomes positive (for example, fewer features but many more users, making it more expensive overall), an invoice is generated for the positive amount

  • As with upgrades, changes to features and limits are applied immediately after success
