Accessing the CRU Billing Portal

Accessing the CRU Billing Portal

How the billing portal works


Now CRU has transitioned to a new billing system, it is easy for clients to log into their own billing portal and view and download invoices. 


This billing portal is separate from the support portal with each client having their own access. 


If you or any of your team members do not have access, please let us know and we will send a billing portal invitation. 


To log in, simply head to:


https://plans.cru.io/portal/cruplans/login#/


If you do not know your password for your username (your email address), click on the Forgot Password link or click here - https://plans.cru.io/portal/cruplans/forgetpassword


Manage Subscriptions

The Customer Portal offers comprehensive subscription management for you

View Subscriptions

The Subscriptions module from the left sidebar displays a list of all the subscriptions that exist on your account in Zoho Subscriptions.

Subscriptions List View

You can use the filters at the top of the list to sort through your subscriptions quickly and find the one you're looking for.

Clicking on any subscription from the list will open an overview screen with additional details of the subscription.

Subscription Details

Edit Subscriptions

You can perform subscription updates, such as changing plans, addons, and coupons right from the Customer Portal.

To do this, go to the Subscriptions module, select a subscription, and click Manage Subscription.
Manage Subscriptions

Now, you will be able to edit your subscription and apply changes to reflect immediately, or at the end of the current term.


Change Auto-charge Status

Auto-charge can be enabled or disabled from the Customer Portal for subscriptions that have a payment method associated with it.

Toggle Auto-charge

A few points to note about toggling Auto-charge:

  • When you disable Auto-charge for a Dunning subscription, the subscription’s status will change from Dunning to Live, since automatic payment retries will not be possible.
  • Enabling auto-charge from the Customer Portal will not collect the pending amount (if any) for invoices that have been generated already. For these invoices, you must make the payment manually.

Pause & Resume Subscriptions

To configure a Pause and Resume schedule, you should:

  • Go to the Subscriptions module.
  • Select a subscription.
  • Click the ellipsis (3-dot) menu in the top right corner.
  • Select Pause Subscription.

    Insight: If a subscription is already paused, then you will have to select Resume Subscription here instead.

  • Configure your Pause and Resume (optional) schedule as required.
     

    Insight: You will not be able to configure a Resume schedule in this popup if you haven’t provided them with permission to resume subscriptions in Preferences.

  • Click Save.

Now the Pause and Resume schedule, which you have configured, will be in effect. You can delete or change the configured pause and resume schedules at any time by repeating the steps above or by clicking Change Schedule from a subscription’s details screen.

Clicking Delete Schedule will remove the currently applied Pause and Resume schedules.

Cancel Subscriptions

Subscriptions can be cancelled either immediately, or scheduled to be cancelled at the end of the current term, from the Customer Portal.

To do this, you should:
  • Go to the Subscriptions module.
  • Select a subscription.
  • Click the ellipsis (3-dot) menu in the top right corner.
  • Select Cancel Subscription.

    Cancel Subscriptions
  • Choose when the subscription has to be cancelled.

Insight: If a subscription has been scheduled to be cancelled at the end of the current term, you can prevent this from happening by going to the Subscriptions module, selecting a subscription, and then clicking Remove Scheduled Cancellation.
Remove Scheduled Cancellation



Reactivate Subscriptions

You can reactivate subscriptions that are in the Cancelled or Expired status, from the Customer Portal. You can do this by going to the Subscriptions module, and then selecting an expired or cancelled subscription.

Now, a banner message will be visible at the top, stating that the subscription has either expired or has been cancelled.

Reactivate Subscriptions

In this banner, you can click Proceed to Reactivate to start reactivating your subscription. A summary of the reactivation charges will be shown to you, along with a Reactivate Subscription button, which you can click to confirm the reactivation.

The Invoices module lets you initiate invoice payments either from the list view or from an invoice’s details screen.

  • Click Pay Now next to an unpaid invoice. You can also click on a particular invoice from the list to open its details screen. Here, you can click Make Payment.

3. Home Dashboard

If you have multiple unpaid invoices, you can pay the total outstanding amount for all of these invoices in one go. 

To do this, you must:
  • Go to the Home dashboard.
  • Click Pay Now in the Outstanding Invoices section.

    Invoice Payments

No matter which of these 3 ways you choose to make payments, the process will be the same. After clicking the Pay Now button, you will be able to select your payment method of choice. If you already have a payment method associated with it, you can select it and click Make Payment to complete the payment with a single click.

You can also add new payment information, such as card details to complete the payment. When adding new payment information, you will have the option to allow that payment method to be used for future transactions. If enabled, this payment method will be the associated payment method for that subscription, and will be used for Auto-charge in the future.

Save Cards

Once you have completed your payment, the status of the invoice will turn to Paid.

Track Payments Made

The Payments Made module from the left side bar displays a list of all the invoice payments that you have made. You can use the view filters at the top of the list to sort through invoices.

Payments Made

Clicking any payment in the list will display the payment’s receipt. You can download or print this receipt for your reference.

Generate Statement of Accounts

The statement of accounts is a document that lists out all the transactions that have taken place over a particular period. It lets you know the total amount that you owe CRU for the sales that took place during that period.

To generate a statement of accounts from the Customer Portal, you should:

  • Go to the Statements module from the left sidebar.
  • Select the Date Range in the top-left corner.
