How billing works
Free trial, secure payments through Stripe, and where to find your invoices.
Every association starts with a free trial — full access, no credit card required. When you’re ready, you choose a plan and enter payment details to continue without interruption. Payments are processed securely by Stripe; Stewardly never stores your card number.
Starting a paid plan
- 1Open Billing from the dashboard sidebar.
- 2Choose your plan and billing cycle (monthly or annual).
- 3You’ll be taken to Stripe’s secure checkout to enter payment details.
- 4After payment, your plan activates immediately and your trial converts to a subscription.
Invoices and receipts
Every charge generates an invoice you can view and download from the billing portal, reachable through the Billing page. Annual plans are billed once a year; monthly plans renew each month on the date you subscribed.
Tip · Billing is managed by board admins only. If you can’t see billing options, ask a board admin to update your role.
