These are examples of paywall notifications that users may encounter.

By default, MSPbots clients are subscribed to the Free Bundle which has a time-based free trial on system integrations and includes limited features and user access.

Boost the benefits of MSPbots on your business by upgrading your plan or bundle. Once you've set up your billing account, you can follow these steps to upgrade:
- On the Billing tab, navigate to the Your Bundles section and click Change.
- When the Customize your plan window opens, select your preferred Bundle Type and Billing Frequency.
- Next, select a BI package, the number of users, and the apps you want to include in the plan. The system automatically calculates the total cost as you make your selection.
Example:
Selected bundle - Startup Bundle
Number of users - 14
The Startup Bundle gives access to up to 10 users. Because the users are more than 10, you must purchase four slots for additional users.
Calculation:
Total Cost = Startup Bundle ($700) + Extra number of Users x cost per user (4 x $70 = $280)
= $700 + $280
= $980
Also included in the Startup is your selection of up to four BI packages. You can change this selection later.
