2. Select **Membership**.
3. Click **Change Plan**.
4. Choose your new plan.

If you upgrade your account within a current billing cycle, the new plan cost will be prorated. You will only pay the difference between the cost of the two plans and not the entire cost of the new plan.

* Credit/Debit - the proration is automatic.
* PayPal - the entire cost of the new plan is charged, and a refund will be issued for the difference in fees.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you downgrade your account to Free, we maintain your account and projects unless you request your account be deleted. Existing private projects become read-only and remain private unless you change them to public. Once public, you can edit the project, but note that a public project can't be changed to private again unless you are on a paid plan again.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## Change Account Email Address <a href="#h_d74aeff2c6" id="h_d74aeff2c6"></a>

Changing the email address associated with a Thunkable account is not possible.

Instead, transfer your existing projects to an account with a different email address:

1. In your old account, generate share links for the projects you want to transfer. Learn more here: [Share a Fully Editable Copy of Your App Project.](https://docs.thunkable.com/settings/manage-your-projects/share-1#share-a-fully-editable-copy-of-your-app-project)
2. Use a private or incognito browser window to create a new Thunkable account with the desired email address.
3. Open the share links in the private or incognito browser window.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you have published any of your apps to the Play Store or the App Store, you must export the keystores of the published apps and import them into the copy of the app in your new account. Instructions are available here: [Export and Import a Keystore](https://docs.thunkable.com/publishing-apps/publish-to-play-store-android#exporting-importing-a-keystore-to-your-app).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Your Thunkable Community account history cannot be transferred to the new email address.
{% endhint %}
