Moving down a plan takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. Here's what actually changes.
The numbers
| Lite | Pro | Platinum | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Platform fee | 20% | 10% | 5% |
| Payout delay | 6 days | 4 days | Same day |
These apply to payments collected after the downgrade takes effect. Money already collected keeps the terms it was collected under.
Dropping from Platinum to Pro
You lose:
- The PLATINUM badge on your profile and search card
- GigGuard eligibility
- API access and webhooks — existing tokens stop working
- Same-day payouts, and the 5% fee
You keep everything in Pro, including identity verification and your verified badge.
Dropping from Pro to Lite
You lose:
- Identity verification — the verified badge comes off your profile, and you drop out of the Verified DJs search filter
- SoundCloud sync — you can't import new mixes
- Calendar sync — outside calendars stop syncing, so blocks from them stop protecting your dates
- Custom document uploads — you're back to the eight templates
- Embeddable widgets — widgets on your own site stop rendering
- Mix plays and post likes in analytics
What you always keep
Whatever plan you're on:
- Your profile, handle, and DJ Link
- Your mixes and posts — including ones you imported from SoundCloud, which stay on your profile
- Every booking, past and upcoming
- Your reviews and completed event count
- Your client list and conversations
- Your payment and payout history
- Booking requests, proposals, documents, and payments — the whole booking flow works on Lite
The ones that catch people out
Calendar sync stopping. If you were relying on a synced calendar to block dates, those blocks stop updating. Add busy blocks manually or you can be double-booked. See Creating a Busy Block.
Widgets going dark. A booking widget on your own website stops rendering. Worth removing the embed rather than leaving a broken block on your site.
The verified badge coming off. Clients filtering by Verified DJs stop seeing you entirely.
Before you downgrade
Check what you've collected recently under Finance → Payments and compare the fee difference against the monthly cost. If you're collecting steadily, a downgrade often costs more in fees than it saves in subscription.
Going back up
Upgrade any time — it takes effect immediately. Your verified badge returns without redoing verification.
