# Billing and Payments

Everything you need to know about how Nifty billing works.

### Billing cycle

* Nifty bills monthly or yearly, depending on the plan you selected.
* Your billing date is the day your paid subscription started.
* **Smart Credits** are allocated monthly, even with a yearly plan.

### Accessing the customer portal

Most billing and subscription tasks happen in the **Customer portal**, including updating payment information, viewing invoices, and canceling your subscription.

1. Go to Settings → [**Subscription**](https://app.nifty.ai/settings/subscription).
2. Click **Customer portal**.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Tip:** If nothing happens when you click **Customer portal**, try a different browser. Some versions of Safari may block the new window as a pop-up.
{% endhint %}

### Updating your payment method

In the [**Customer portal**](#accessing-the-customer-portal), click on your payment method to update your billing information.

### Failed payments

If your payment method fails, we'll notify you and provide a grace period to update your payment information. During this time, your automations and **Sale Detection** will be paused, but your account data remains secure.

Once payment is resolved, your automations resume automatically — no need to restart them manually. If you've been away for a while, [Getting Back On Track](/getting-started/getting-back-on-track.md) can help you catch up.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Warning:** If payment isn't resolved within the grace period, your subscription will be canceled.
{% endhint %}

### Yearly billing

Switch to yearly billing and save up to 12% compared to monthly pricing. You can change your billing cycle from the [**Customer portal**](#accessing-the-customer-portal).

### Invoices

To view or download past invoices, go to the [**Customer portal**](#accessing-the-customer-portal) and select your invoice history.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.nifty.ai/subscriptions/billing-and-payments.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
