Cloud Pricing & Licensing
Managing Users & Roles
If you're a Site Administrator, follow the steps below. To add a user:
You can then select a user from the list at the bottom of the page to grant/revoke access to particular products. |
Remove a user if you don't want them to appear on your site. Removing a user from one site doesn’t remove them from your organization or other sites you manage. To remove a user:
|
Users will be counted toward billing once product access is granted. A user must be explicitly deactivated, deleted, or removed from a synced user directory (if you have Google sync) to not count towards billing. Learn how to add or remove users. You may also see users stemming from Marketplace Apps, however, these users are not counted toward your total user count or your bill. |
If you're a Site Administrator, you can find the number of billable users for each cloud product by following the steps
If you're only a billing or technical contact (within my.atlassian.com), you will not have access to user counts. In order to understand how many users you have, please refer to recent Invoices, located within my.atlassian.com, under the Orders tab. |
The Trusted user role grants access to Product Admin features, but not Site Admin features. Trusted users have the ability to invite new users and begin new product trials. Adding a Trusted user will not add them to any user groups with global permissions, however, they will be counted as a billable user for each parent product within the cloud site. For example, a Trusted user on a cloud site with Jira, Confluence, and Jira Service Management will be considered a billable user for each product. |
As a Site Administrator, you can access your users' last activity by:
Activity is captured when a logged-in user interacts with your cloud site. When there is user activity, the current date is logged in User Management. Please note, we don't differentiate between activity across Jira and Jira Service Management. |
As a Site Administrator, you can add or remove products by:
Please note: Removing products or apps takes effect immediately and no credit or refund will be offered for removing applications or apps early. |
A Site Administrator is a user in the site-admins group who has access to the user management and billing sections of your cloud site. Users in this group will have complete administrator access to all applications on your site and have application access to all available applications. You can learn more about the new Site Administrators permission in Default Groups and Permissions in Cloud. |
Your Site Administrators and Administrators are managed through your cloud site and your billing contacts are managed on my.atlassian.com. If no Site Administrators are active users, it will be necessary to contact your internal IT team to grant you access to the email address associated with the previous contact. You can then use the 'Unable to access your account?' link from your cloud site. |
Your Site Administrators and Administrators are managed through your cloud site. Only Site Administrators can update who has the 'site-admin' permission. If no Site Administrators are active users, it will be necessary to contact your internal IT team to grant you access to the email address associated with the previous contact. You can then use the Unable to access your account? link from your cloud site to reset the password and change the Site Administrator. |
To add a billing or technical contact, any existing billing or technical contacts can log into my.atlassian.com, select the product or subscription in question, and enter the email address of the new contact. If the new contact does not have an Atlassian Account, you will be prompted to enter a few details. To establish a new primary billing or technical contact, the new contact will need to log into my.atlassian.com and select Make Primary. The existing primary contact will then be demoted to a secondary contact and can be removed if needed. Within cloud, any Site Admin will be able to make themselves a billing contact by navigating to Site Administration > Billing > Overview and selecting Make Me A Billing Contact. If you have any questions about the contacts on file for your license or subscription, please contact our Customer Advocate Team. |
An email will be sent to all billing and technical contacts 3 days prior to the billing date. You can manage your technical and billing contacts through my.atlassian.com. We are working to expand this notification to all site administrators of your cloud site in the future. |
Managing Your Subscription
Cloud Monthly To ensure timely payment for monthly subscriptions, we're only able to accept payment via credit card* or PayPal. The card on file can be updated by the primary billing contact via my.atlassian.com at any time, or you can elect to pay via PayPal via the Billing Details section of your cloud subscription. Please note, if you've elected to purchase a monthly cloud subscription through a Solution Partner, they will need to be added as a licensed Site Admin in order to manage the monthly billing of the site. *Unfortunately, we're unable to accept Discover credit cards for monthly renewals.
Cloud Annual Cloud subscriptions set up for automatic renewals can be paid via credit card or PayPal. Annual quotes can be paid by credit card, bank transfer, check, ACH, PayPal, or Net-30 terms (for orders above $10,000). Complete payment details appear on the first page of an official quote and on our How To Pay page. |
After you've created your cloud site, monthly payment details can be applied either from within the site itself by a Site Admin, or via the primary billing contact's my.atlassian.com account. Please note, PayPal accounts must be linked by a Site Admin from within the site itself. Via Cloud Site Monthly payment details can be added from within the cloud site itself by a Site Admin. Once an Admin logs into the site, they'll navigate to Site Administration > Billing > Billing Details. Follow the on-screen instructions to add credit card details or link a PayPal account. Via my.atlassian.com Alternatively, credit card details can be added via the primary billing contact's my.atlassian.com account by selecting the cloud site in question and clicking Provide Payment Details from the drop-down menu. Please note, PayPal accounts must be linked by a Site Admin from within the site itself. |
Cloud subscriptions paid monthly will simply charge the card on file for the number of users tied to each product, each month. Cloud sites paid annually will need a formal prorated upgrade quote, as products are sold in distinct user tiers. Please review the available annual user tiers and Contact Us for a formal upgrade quote. |
Any Site Admin can update the credit card/Paypal account on file from within the cloud site itself. Once a Site Admin has logged into the site:
Alternatively, the primary billing contact of a cloud subscription can update the credit card for the subscription via my.atlassian.com. To update the credit card on file:
The new card will be charged on the next billing date. Please note, PayPal accounts must be linked by a Site Admin from within the site itself. |
You can choose annual payment for your cloud site from your site’s Administration. You have the option to select a one-year or a two-year billing cycle for such payments. To choose annual payments, follow the steps below:
After reviewing your billing details, you may either follow the next steps to complete your payment or save a price quote for later. Your annual billing cycle will start from the last day of your current billing cycle and you’ll pay a prorated price for the rest of your billing period. Note: Free plans are not part of an annual billing cycle and will be upgraded to the Standard plan. |
Moving from an annual term back to a monthly term can be executed no more than 30 days from the annual term end date*. Monthly billing will then resume at the end of the annual term. To get started, please contact us with your cloud site URL. Before we can process the change, we'll need confirmation from a billing/technical contact on file. If possible, please have this individual contact us to expedite the process.
*If your annual term was purchased within the last 30 days, we would be happy to issue a full refund and move you to a monthly term immediately. |
Annual cloud sites can be set up for automatic renewals via credit card or PayPal. Alternatively, contact us to generate a renewal quote for 12 or 24 months, should you wish to pay via bank transfer, check, or ACH, or lock-in pricing for two years. |
If you've purchased an annual cloud site but have yet to claim your URL, follow the steps below:
URLs can also be claimed from the confirmation email once payment has been processed. Please note, product subscriptions begin when payment is processed, not from the time the URL is claimed. |
The primary billing and technical contacts listed on a quote or invoice can retrieve them from my.atlassian.com.
Please note: You can only access the orders where you are listed as the billing or technical contact. |
In some cases, card issuers will place an authorization hold on funds (making them unavailable) for the amount of the purchase. Atlassian settles the transaction immediately (known as "settlement"), but the authorization hold can remain from 1-5 days until it "falls off" depending on your card issuer's policies. If the funds are not made available 5 days after the transaction, we recommend contacting your card issuer (Visa/American Express/MasterCard/etc) to see when the authorization hold will drop off. |
If you're looking to lower your bill there are a few strategies:
|
The management of user access and subscribed services is done by the Site Administrator(s); this is the best person to contact within your organization about changes made to your subscription. If you do not know who your Site Administrator is, you can contact the technical contact listed on an invoice or contact us and we can help identify the Site Administrator. |
If payment fails for your Atlassian product subscription, you will be unsubscribed from all products 15 days after the payment due date, at which point users will no longer be able to access the product. Data retention After you have been unsubscribed, Atlassian retains your data for 15 days for trial sites or 60 days for paid subscription sites. Your data will be deleted 15 days for trial sites or 60 days for paid subscription sites after you have been unsubscribed due to missed payment for an Atlassian product subscription. Atlassian won't delete any of your data stored in the Google Apps Marketplace, such as users or information in your Google Apps database, Google Docs, Gmail messages, Google Calendar entries, Google Chat, or Google Sites. Resubscribing to an unpaid product You can resubscribe by completing any missed payments within the 15 or 60 days after your site has been unsubscribed. Submitting payment once your site data has been deleted will not reactivate your subscription (or restore your site data). |
Canceling your Atlassian product subscription will prevent any further site renewals from being processed. Your site will remain accessible until 15 days after the end of your current subscription period, at which point your site will be deactivated. Data retention Your products will be deactivated 15 days after the end of your current subscription period. Atlassian retains data for deactivated products for 15 days for trial sites or 60 days for Free, Standard, or Premium subscriptions after the end of your current subscription period. Following this deactivation period, your product data will be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered. Atlassian will not delete any data that's stored in the Google Apps Marketplace, such as users or information in your Google Apps database, Google Docs, Gmail messages, Google Calendar entries, Google Chat, or Google Sites. Resubscribing to a canceled site You can resubscribe by paying any outstanding renewals before your site data is permanently deleted. Submitting payment once your site data has been deleted will not reactivate your subscription (or restore your site data). |
With the launch of our Free plan, Atlassian no longer offers purchases of new Cloud Starter licenses as part of our Standard plan, effective September 21st, 2020. Purchases of licenses on a Standard plan, including the addition of new products to your site, are now on per-user-pricing starting at one user. Please use our Cloud Pricing Calculator if you wish to calculate your new license price. If you owned a Starter subscription prior to September 21st, 2020, your license will not be affected. Please note: If you choose to change your plan to Free or Premium, you will not be able to revert back to a Starter license after September 21st, 2020. |
If you choose to move to an annual license via self-serve, you will no longer remain on a Cloud Starter pricing and will receive the new per-user-pricing for 1-10 users on our Standard plan. If you wish to keep your Cloud Starter pricing, please contact our Customer Advocates who can manually quote an annual license for you. If you’re currently on an annual license and wish to move to monthly, you will not be able to keep your Cloud Starter pricing, and will instead move to per-user-pricing on our Standard plan. |
For small teams looking for affordable pricing plans, we recommend our Free cloud plans for Jira, Jira Service Management, and Confluence. Our Free plan is available for teams of up to 10 users and/or 3 agents with 2 GB of storage and Community Support. |
Marketplace app vendors (formally known as Marketplace Partners) may offer promo codes from time to time for their cloud apps. Site Admins can redeem promo codes directly within their cloud site either via the Promotions section of the Apps dropdown menu or via the in-app Marketplace experience. Please note applying promo codes to certain cloud purchases, like conversions from monthly to annual (and vice-versa) and direct-buy orders, will require assistance from Atlassian. |

Monthly per-user pricing varies across Atlassian products and apps. See our interactive Cloud Pricing Calculator to determine your monthly price across all Atlassian products and Marketplace apps. If you’re an existing server customer interested in migrating to cloud, we’ve built a personalized calculator to give you a side-by-side view of costs based on the server products you own. |
