Upgrades and Downgrades

Should a Business Club Member wish to upgrade or downgrade their membership, they can do so by accessing the Membership Options page of the Platform, from the ‘My Account’ page when logged in.

If upgrading, our Platform will calculate the additional cost required taking into account whether the member is a yearly or monthly subscriber and based on what stage they are at within their payment cycle.

Your Diamond Member start date will be from the date you originally upgraded, which may not always be the subscription date for your Glow membership.
