Buy a subscription

You will need to buy a Baserow subscription to upgrade users to access premium features. To buy a Baserow subscription you will need a baserow.io account, even if the subscription is intended for self-hosted Baserow instances.

Buying a new subscription depends on whether you are on the hosted or self-hosted plan. For more details about how Baserow subscriptions work, view this documentation.

Please get in touch with a sales representative if you’re interested in our Enterprise plan.

Buy subscription for the SaaS Hosted version

On the SaaS offering on the baserow.io, you can purchase a subscription to upgrade from the Free plan to the Premium or Advanced plan. When the workspace is upgraded to a paid plan, all billable workspace collaborators will have access to paid features.

There are two ways to buy a subscription for the SaaS hosted version:

  • Add users to the workspace first and then subscribe to a paid plan
  • Subscribe to a paid plan first then get charged every time a new billable user gets added to the workspace

To upgrade a workspace,

1. Sign in to https://baserow.io, click on the Subscriptions tab in the sidebar. If you have existing subscriptions, click on the + add new button at the top-right of the page.

2. Within the subscriptions page, the list of workspaces within the SaaS (hosted cloud version) will be displayed on the left-hand side of the screen. Choose this option if you set up your Baserow database using the hosted version, where your database is hosted for you at https://baserow.io.

3. From your existing workspaces, select the workspace that you would like to get a subscription for. Within the modal, select a billing period and pricing plan. You can choose to be charged monthly or annually per billable user.

4. You will be required to enter your payment card information and authorise payment. In order to proceed with your payment, we may need you to authenticate with your bank.

5. Once your transaction has been completed, all billable users in the workspace will be upgraded to the plan. You will find your subscription on the overview page.

Inviting more billable users to the workspace will increase the price of your subscription later on. When a billable user accepts an invite, you have to pay the difference.

Likewise, the price will be reduced once the billable user is not a part of the workspace anymore.

Buy subscription for the Self-hosted Premium and Advanced plans

On your self-hosted Baserow server, you can purchase a subscription to upgrade from the Open source (free) plan to the Premium or Advanced plan. Contact sales to upgrade to the Enterprise plan.

7. Once a self-hosted subscription is paid for, you will be able to download a license key that can be used to register your Baserow instance.

9. Register the license key to a Baserow instance.

8. Choose which registered users will be able to use paid features. After installing a licence, you must individually assign seats to users, including yourself, before access to premium features is granted.

  • A user who is in a workspace, who is in a “premium seat” has access to the premium features in the self-hosted version.
