How does subscription Auto-upgrade work?

Subscription Auto-upgrade is a billing feature in Stape’s user office. Normally, each subscription plan has a limited number of requests available. For instance, a Business-tier subscription to server-side GTM provides up to 5,000,000 requests per month. So, normally, once you exceed this limit, you will not be able to use the product until the next billing cycle. 

That’s where the Auto-upgrade feature comes in. If you enable it, Stape will upgrade your subscription plan as soon as the number of requests exceeds your current plan’s limit. This ensures seamless performance of your containers or Signals Gateway, preventing service disruptions and loss of analytical data.

There are two ways to enable Auto-upgrade for your subscription:

Option 1. Allow Auto-upgrade when choosing a subscription plan. Create a new sGTM container or Signals Gateway, and toggle the switch to upgrade it automatically.

Option 2. Upgrade an existing subscription to allow Auto-upgrade. Open an existing sGTM container or Signals Gateway → click the Change Plan button or open the Subscription tab → toggle the switch to allow the subscription to be upgraded automatically upon reaching the request limit.
