Your plan sets how many spans the account can record, and this tab shows how close you are. You'll come here to check the month's span count against your allowance, look back at earlier months, or change your subscription.

## Your plan

The card on the left shows the plan the account is on. For a paid subscription it shows the plan name, its status (such as Active), and the start and end dates of the current billing period. **Manage subscription** opens our billing provider's portal, where you manage the subscription itself; when you leave the portal, it brings you back to this tab.

On the free plan, the card shows the plan name with a Free plan label and an **Upgrade plan** button, which opens a list of plans to choose from. Read-only users don't see **Upgrade plan**, and it's hidden when your account can't upgrade from the app.

## Span usage

**Total spans** is the number of spans the account recorded in the selected month, across every agent and environment. When your plan has an allowance, it appears beside the total (for example, `12,400 / 50K`).

Use the arrows beside the month name to step back to earlier months, as far as the month the account was created. Months run from the first to the last day of the calendar month in UTC, so they don't always line up with your billing period.

The bar chart shows the span count for each day of the month. If your plan changed during the month, a marker on the chart shows the day it changed and the name of the new plan.
