How can I upgrade/downgrade my Seedbox or Storage Box Service?

Upgrading or downgrading your Seedbox or Storage Box is easy, and we do the heavy lifting for you.

How to switch

  1. Order the new service from our website.
  2. Contact support and let us know you would like to switch.

We handle the rest

  • Your prepaid value carries over toward the new plan and converts into service time at the best long-term rate your value covers — with nothing to pay right now. Longer-term rates (yearly or multi-year) come with the matching commitment: a longer discounted rate applies once your prepaid value, or an optional top-up, covers that term. Your existing time is never lost — it simply becomes time on the new plan.
  • We migrate your data from the old service to the new one.
  • Your old service stays active during migration, so nothing is lost.

Important notes

  • Usernames must match between the old and new service for data migration.
  • Large accounts (50TB+) may need a week or more for migration.
  • Switching plans moves you to the current price for that plan; previous (grandfathered) pricing does not carry over. Why is my rate different from your website pricing? explains why.
  • Your Free Bonus Disk is tied to your account, not a single service. When you switch plans, your earned bonus is re-applied on the new plan at provisioning — it is guaranteed, based on your account tenure and history.
  • For downgrades, your remaining value converts to more days on the cheaper plan.

To help choose your new plan, see our product pages for M1000, M10G, and Value1000 plans.
