How to Upgrade / Downgrade Your Hosting Plan in AMP

In this tutorial, we will show you how to upgrade or downgrade your Hosting Plan in your Account Management Panel (AMP). If you’ve outgrown or underutilized your current hosting plan, you can easily sign-in and take advantage of the AMP to upgrade or downgrade your plan to match your current hosting needs. We will also cover changing your plan term (payment cycle), for example from 1 year to 2 years. Then we’ll show you how to set up Billing reminders, so you can set custom reminders for upcoming payments.
