## Overview

This topic explains the information on the **Billing** page and how to make changes to the LaunchDarkly plan you subscribe to.

The billing cycle begins on the first of the month (UTC). Your first month is prorated based on when you sign up.

## About the Billing page

Depending on how your LaunchDarkly account is configured, you may not have access to view the **Billing** page. To view the **Billing** page, click the gear icon in the left navigation to open "Organization settings," then choose "Billing".The **Billing** page includes the following information:

* Your account ID.
* The charges for the current month.
* Your monthly entitlements for monthly active users (MAU) for the current month. To learn more, read [Monthly active users (MAU)](/home/account/calculating-billing#monthly-active-users-mau).
* Your monthly entitlements for [service connections](/home/account/service-connections) for the current month.
* (If applicable) Your monthly entitlements for [Experimentation keys](/home/account/calculating-billing#experimentation-keys) or [Experimentation MAU](/home/account/calculating-billing#experimentation-mau) and [Data Export events](/integrations/data-export) for the current month.
* (If applicable) Your monthly entitlements for the upcoming month, if you have made changes to your plan and the new billing cycle has not yet started.
