FAQ: Should I extend my quota or move up to a higher plan?

Both routes get you more room. They are priced differently, and which one is cheaper depends entirely on what you are running out of.


The short version


→ Short on one resource only — products, glossary rules, automate rules, images? Keep your plan and add an extension. That is almost always cheaper.


→ Short on languages or currencies? A higher plan is the only route. These cannot be extended on any plan.


→ Short on several things at once, or missing a feature? A higher plan usually works out better, because it raises everything together instead of one line at a time.


A worked comparison


Say you need room for about 10,000 products.

If products are genuinely the only thing you are short of, staying on Regional saves you $30 a month. If you also want more languages, more currencies, or location-based switching, Continental is the better buy even though the product line costs about the same.


Two things worth knowing before you decide


Extensions do not stack. Your total is your plan's base plus the one extension package you hold — a larger package replaces the smaller one rather than adding to it.


Languages and currencies cannot be extended. If that is where you are running out, no extension will help and a higher plan is the only way.


If you would rather not work it out yourself


Tell us three things and we will lay both options out for you with the real monthly totals:


  1. How many target languages you need
  2. How many currencies you need
  3. How many products you need translated
