# Upgrading your Launch Cart store from a free to a paid plan

Launch Cart offers a free forever plan with optional premium plans (Lift-off, Growth, and Scale) to fit the needs of any business. The free plan is a great way to test the platform while our premium plans will add new features and functionality to your store. **You can upgrade any time you like.**

| You can check which Launch Cart plan you are currently on by clicking on the Settings→Store Plan section inside your store's dashboard

# Main benefits of paid plans

**Drag 'n drop page builder:** Get higher amounts of pages that you can create with our super advanced drag n drop page builder that allows you to build complete marketing funnels, page funnels, product funnels, and more.

**Staff accounts:** Create and add staff accounts for virtual assistants, and employees, and pick and choose what areas of your store's dashboard they can manage.

**Automatic sales:** Run completely automated sales on your stores where you can schedule discounts and more to run on autopilot.

**Custom domain:** Use your own custom domain that you already own.

**Automatic upsells:** Show upsells and offers to your customers AFTER they buy to increase your Average Order Value.

**No platform fee:** Once you upgrade, we remove the 3% platform fee that is taken out of your total sales.

# FAQ

**Do I need to enter my credit card details to sign up?**
****
No. You can sign up and use Launch Cart's free forever plan without entering your credit card details. We only ask for your credit card details when you subscribe to a premium plan.

**Can I change my plan**
****
Yes, you can upgrade, switch or downgrade your plan at any time.

**Do you charge platform fees?**
****
Launch Cart only charges a platform fee if you're on the free forever plan. We charge a 3% fee on total sales made from your online store. If you decide to upgrade, this platform fee is removed and we no longer take a percentage of sales.

**Do you offer discounts for multiple stores?**
****
Not at this time. However, Launch Cart makes it super simple to manage 100's of stores at once with 1-single login (unless you invite staff). With our store selector dropdown in your dashboard, you can easily switch between all your stores in seconds.

**Can I use my existing domain name?**
****
Yes. You can use an existing domain name you already own or you can purchase a new one. We also give you a free (your_name_here.launchcart.store) domain name to get you started.

**Can I sell digital products too?**

Yes. With our downloads feature, you can sell e-books, videos, music, software, and everything else digital. Just upload your files to your product, and a secure download link will be delivered to your customers after their payment.

**Do I need an SSL Certificate**
****
Every Launch Cart store comes with an included **SSL Certificate** for every domain, and every custom domain you add.

**Does Launch Cart offer any discounts for nonprofit organizations**
****
Yes. Please email support@launchcart.com for more.
