# Subscribe to Aurinko
When your **14-day trial** expires, your API access is automatically disabled. To continue using Aurinko, you'll need to subscribe to a paid plan.
### Open Billing
1. Sign in to the Aurinko Portal.
2. Open your **Team Settings**, then click **Billing** in the left navigation menu.
3. Click **Add new card**.
If your trial has expired, the Portal displays a **Payment required** message in your team. Click **Add credit card** in your application to go directly to the **Billing** page.
### Add your payment method
Enter your payment card details and save the payment method.
Once you've added a payment method, your subscription becomes active and billing is based on the APIs your team uses.
### What happens when your trial ends?
***
Aurinko includes a **14-day free trial**. During this period, you have full access to the API.
If you do not subscribe before the trial expires:
* API requests are blocked.
* Existing integrations stop working.
* The Portal displays a **Subscription Required** message until a subscription is activated.
To help you avoid service interruption, Aurinko sends reminder emails:
* **3 days** before your trial expires.
* **1 day** before your trial expires.
* **On the day** your trial expires.
Once you activate a subscription, API access is restored automatically.
