Seats on Starter

On Starter you pay for each person on your team. On Unlimited there are no seats: one price covers everyone.

Who takes a seat

Everyone on your agency's side: the Owner (shown as Portal admin in the app for now), Admins and Team members.
Someone counts once they've accepted their invitation. A Pending invitation doesn't.
Clients never take a seat, however many you invite to the portal.
A deactivated person doesn't count.

How seats are billed

You pay for the most people you've had on your team during the current billing period, monthly or yearly.

Adding someone when you already have a free seat costs nothing.
Adding someone beyond the seats you've paid for adds a seat, charged only for the rest of the period. On monthly billing that charge goes on your next invoice; on yearly billing it's invoiced straight away.
Removing someone doesn't refund or credit anything. Their seat stays paid until your renewal, and anyone you add in the meantime takes it for free.
At each renewal the count drops to the people on your team that day, and never below one.

You never set the number of seats yourself — Timebun keeps it in step as people join and leave.

See your seats

The Timebun plan card on Settings → Workspace → General shows a line such as:

7 seats paid until 1 Nov 2026 · 5 in use · 2 free to reuse

The Subscribe and Change plan dialogs repeat the rule when you choose Starter: "Seats are paid for the whole month. Removing someone frees their seat for someone new until your renewal, when the count drops to who is on the team."
