Manage subscriptions and bills for Atlassian cloud products
Get a high-level overview of billing and subscription management for Atlassian cloud products.
We want to make sure you can easily restore your settings after you resolve an Atlassian Guard Standard (formerly known as Atlassian Access) payment issue. When you have a payment issue, we let you know in a series of emails. If you’re unable to resolve the payment issue for your Atlassian Guard Standard subscription within a certain time frame, then your subscription becomes inactive.
When your subscription is inactive, you have a grace period of 14 days to reactivate it. If you’re unable to reactivate your subscription during the grace period, you permanently lose all Atlassian Guard Standard settings.
During the grace period, we save your SAML and SCIM configurations and keep users in their authentication policies to make it easy for you to restore your settings.
During the grace period, you’re able to use all your Atlassian Guard Standard settings, except for these:
Authentication policy settings
single sign-on
mandatory two-step verification
block user API tokens
Identity providers
connect an identity provider
link domains to your identity provider directory
configure SAML single sign-on
