HOW DO I UPGRADE FROM HEROKU'S FREE TIER AND BEGIN USING PAID RESOURCES?


ISSUE

You'd like to begin using paid resources but are unsure how to upgrade to them.


RESOLUTION

In order to begin using paid resources with Heroku, you must verify your account
with a valid payment method.

Free resources belonging to Enterprise Teams will be automatically converted to
paid ones on November 28, 2022. See this Knowledge Base article for more info.


USING THE UPGRADE PAGE

For personal accounts, the fastest way to view and upgrade your free resources
before November 28, 2022 is via the upgrade page at
https://dashboard.heroku.com/upgrade. Teams can go the upgrade page at at
https://dashboard.heroku.com/teams/{team-name}/upgrade.

All free resources used by your apps are listed on this page under the Resources
to Upgrade tab. You can also review your paid resources from this page.



UPGRADE YOUR DYNOS

The new Eco dynos plan is the lowest-cost option for dynos. All eco dynos share
the same pool of 1000 dyno hours a month. You only need to subscribe once to
convert your existing free dynos on all apps to eco. Eco dynos are only
available to personal accounts.

Subscribe to the Eco dynos plan by clicking on the Subscribe to Eco button on
the upgrade page. Follow the prompts to complete and confirm your subscription.

If you don't want to subscribe to Eco, you can individually upgrade the dynos
for each app instead. Hobby dynos cost a maximum of $7/month (prorated to the
second), or you can choose from our other plans.

In addition, you must also reconfigure any existing Scheduler jobs that use free
dynos to use another dyno type.

UPGRADE YOUR DATABASES

The upgrade page makes it easy to upgrade your databases by listing all free
databases being used by your apps. By default, the database plan picker for each
database on this page is set to the Mini plan.

Click the Upgrade button beside each database and follow the prompts. If you
want to upgrade to other plans, you can choose a different one in the dropdown
picker.




UPGRADING WITHOUT THE UPGRADE PAGE

UPGRADE YOUR DYNOS

You can subscribe to the Eco dynos plan by going to your Billing page in the
Heroku Dashboard.



To use other dyno types, see Setting Dyno Types. You can also refer to the Dynos
Overview article to help understand and choose between different dyno types. In
addition, you must also reconfigure any existing Scheduler jobs that use free
dynos to use another dyno type.

If you accidentally select the wrong dyno, you can always downgrade immediately.
All billing on Heroku is prorated to the second. As an example, a $25/month
Standard-1X dyno is approximately $0.035/hour. For more details, see our Usage &
Billing documentation.

UPGRADE YOUR DATABASES

You can upgrade your Heroku Postgres or Heroku Data for Redis plans by running
the heroku addons:upgrade command.

For more details, see Changing the Plan or Infrastructure of a Heroku Postgres
Database and Upgrading a Heroku Data for Redis Plan.

If you accidentally select the wrong plan, you can always downgrade immediately.
All billing on Heroku is prorated to the second. As an example, a $9/month Basic
Postgres database is approximately $0.013/hour. For more details, see our Usage
& Billing documentation.

For info on add-ons and managing them in general, see Add-Ons Overview and
Managing Add-ons


HEROKU PRICING

You can experiment with the pricing of your selections by using our interactive
pricing page to help predict costs.

The pricing page allows you to view different options available for the amount
and type of dynos, databases, other add-ons, and support levels available with
Heroku. As you select options on the pricing page, you can see the top-right
area update with the pricing estimate based on your selections. Note that it
always shows the maximum monthly price, but all costs are actually prorated to
the second based on your usage. For more details, see our Usage & Billing
documentation.
