Once you've signed up with Retail POS, the billing and subscription page becomes your hub to manage your subscription and view and pay invoices. To access the billing and subscription page, navigate to Settings > Billing & Subscription. Only admin users and account owners can navigate to this page.

Overview tab

The overview tab shows you details about your subscription and the status of your account.

The account status banner at the top of the overview page reflects your current account status.

This banner changes throughout your billing cycle:

• Your billing cycle ends on: You are in your billing cycle and do not currently have an invoice due. You do not need to take any action.
• Your invoice is due on: Your invoice is due in seven days or fewer. Pay your invoice to avoid disruption to your subscription.
• Your invoice is overdue: Your invoice is overdue. Pay your invoice as soon as possible to avoid disruption to your subscription. Every user will be redirected to this page upon login until it is paid.
• Your account is locked: Your account is locked until your invoice is paid. Every user will be redirected to this page upon login and cannot navigate in Retail POS until it is paid.

Clicking the Pay your invoice button on the banner will take you to the Invoices tab. It can take up to one hour for the status banner to change after you’ve made an invoice payment. 

The next section outlines your subscription usage for locations, registers, and users.

The Details section includes information about your subscription end date, account ID, and support PIN. It also includes links to the help center, chat support, and your account manager contact.

The Add-ons section shows any add-on features for your subscription.

Invoices tab

On the Invoices tab you can view, download, and pay your invoices.

The page shows the invoice summary ID, status, payment due date, invoice total, and the balance left to pay on the invoice.

Paying invoices

To pay your invoice, click Pay invoice beside the payment due date.
