Each Redis Cloud Essentials plan provides a variety of benefits, including increased memory and number of connections. For a comparison of available plans, see Redis Cloud Essentials plans.
When you change your plan, your data and endpoints are not disrupted.
If you upgrade a free plan to a paid plan, you need to add a payment method.
If you change your subscription to a lower plan, make sure your data fits within the limits of the new plan; otherwise, the change attempt will fail.
Change high availability
To change your plan's high availability settings, select the desired setting in the High availability panel.
![Use the High availability panel to set Essentials subscription replication settings.](png/subscription-fixed-high-availability-panel.png)
You can switch between No replication and Single-zone replication at any time, but you cannot choose Multi-zone replication after your subscription is created. You also cannot switch from Multi-zone replication to another high availability option.
Change payment method
To change your subscription payment method, update the Credit card settings. You can select a known payment method from the drop-down list or use the Add button to add a new one.

To verify your role, select Access Management from the admin menu and then locate your credentials in the Team tab.
