Sometimes you need more sends than your plan allows. Whether it's a busy season, a special campaign, or just an unusually active month, bonus sends let you purchase extra email credits without changing your plan. *** ## How Bonus Sends Work * Bonus sends are additional email credits on top of your existing plan. * They **never expire while your subscription is active**. Once purchased, they stay in your account until you use them. * Bonus sends are only used **after your monthly plan sends have been used up**. Your regular plan sends are always consumed first. * Bonus sends **require an active subscription**. If you cancel your subscription, any unused bonus sends are removed when the subscription ends at the close of your billing period, and they cannot be restored if you resubscribe later. *** ## Purchasing Bonus Sends 1. Go to **Settings > Billing**. 2. In the **Purchase Extra Sends** section, select the number of additional sends you'd like to buy from the dropdown. 3. Click **Purchase** to complete the checkout. You must be on an **active paid subscription** to purchase bonus sends. They are not available on the free plan. *** ## When to Use Bonus Sends Bonus sends are a great fit when you need a temporary increase in capacity without committing to a higher plan. Common use cases include: * **Holiday seasons** when your church is sending more frequent updates. * **Special events** like a sermon series launch, fundraiser, or outreach campaign. * **Months where you simply send more than usual** and don't want to upgrade your plan permanently. *** If you're consistently hitting your send limit, it may be worth considering a [plan upgrade](/billing/changing-your-plan) instead.
