Commit to a plan during the trial period¶
During a running trial period, the Captcha Starter plan can be committed to in advance without an immediate debit. The customer portal stores the payment method and debits it only at the end of the trial period. The plan becomes active automatically at the same moment.
All other plans as well as every purchase after the end of the trial period run through the ordinary payment process and are debited immediately. See Book a plan.
The following requirements must be met:
- ☑ Your account is in a running trial period. See Trial period.
- ☑ Neither a paid plan nor a commitment exists for your account.
Proceed as follows to commit to the Captcha Starter plan:

- ► Open the entry Account › Profile through the side bar and change to the Plans tab.
- ► Click the Buy now button in the Starter plan.
- ↳ The Commit to Captcha Starter Plan view is shown with the notice Your card will not be charged until your trial ends. You can cancel your commitment anytime before then.

Withdraw a commitment¶
The commitment can be withdrawn at any time until the end of the trial period. Until then, no payment has taken place.
If a plan is committed to, the mark above the offer in the Plans tab gives the start date, for example Captcha Starter Plan committed — activates on 13.06.2026. The Subscription History tab carries the entry with the Committed mark and the Cancel commitment button.
How a commitment is withdrawn is described under Cancel a subscription.
Note
After the withdrawal, the trial period continues until its original end date. The dialog names this date.
