Buying the extended version history add-on while on annual subscription

Hello. I have a 2TB annual plan for which I will pay $130 annually starting March 2025. Will this added feature only cost me $40/year, or is this figure prorated for the remainder of the year until the plan renews? If so, what will my new total be for 2025-2026 for the 2TB plan + the extended history feature?   Thanks.

  • Hey Behram1960 - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to our Community!
     

    As the relevant Help Center article outlines, note that when you purchase the extended version history add-on, you’ll be charged at a prorated amount for your current billing period. At the start of your next billing period, you’ll be charged for the full amount of the add-on, in addition to your subscription cost.

     

    I hope this clarifies and please let us know if you have any other questions.

      Thanks, Walter. I just found the language a bit ambiguous and wanted to clarify before I decided to subscribe.  I appreciate the explanation.
