Frequently asked questions
Do you collect tax?
What happens when I exceed the first 10,000 monthly active users or 100 monthly active organizations?
Once you exceed 10,000 monthly active users or 100, you will be required to upgrade to the Pro tier, where each user or organization beyond the free tier allowance will be added to your monthly bill.
You’ll be given a one-month grace period so your application can continue to operate correctly.
Is there a free trial?
All of our pro features are available to try in the development instance of your application, allowing you to test the full functionality of Clerk without being constrained by a traditional trial period. All features are properly tagged in the Dashboard so you'll know if a specific feature requires an upgrade to use in production.
What happens if I am using Pro features in my development instance and I move to production?
You will be prompted to purchase the necessary plan and addons to support the selected features. You may ignore this and move to production without enabling those features, but your application may not work as expected.
Running the production version of your application using a development instance of Clerk is not recommended, as certain security features are only implemented in production instances.
What is "First Day Free"?
"First Day Free" is our way of helping you avoid charges for users that try your app and do not return. Since we don't count users as active unless they sign in at least one more time after the first 24 hour period, the first day the user access your application is free of charge.
What is considered a monthly active user?
Users are considered "active" when they log into your application multiple times in a single month after the first day. You are only billed for users that are considered active.
What is considered a monthly active organization?
Organizations are considered “active” when they have more than one active user in that organization at any time in a single month. Like users, you are only billed for active organizations.
Do you offer volume discounts?
Yes, please contact our sales team to discuss custom pricing for your enterprise.
Can I ensure my data only remains in a specific country or region?
Does Clerk offer migration assistance?
Can I export my data?
Absolutely! We believe your data should always be in your control. You can easily export your user data directly from the dashboard at any time, no assistance needed.
