Billing
Please note that this service is only available to Magistrala Cloud users.
This service allows users to view and subscribe to billing plans, manage payment methods and billing information, and download generated invoices and receipts.
Magistrala employs the use of 3rd-party payment processor to handle the user's private information.
This means that Magistrala will not have the user's card payment credentials at any point in time.
Navigate to the Billing tab on the sidenav bar. This tab will only be visible to admin members of a domain.
