Change Your Account Billing Settings
by Intuit•7• Updated 1 week ago
It’s important to keep your account billing information up-to-date to ensure your payments are processed and paid plans stay active. Your billing information also determines your payment options and tax charges.
In this article, you’ll learn how to access and change your billing information.
View your billing information
If you’re an account Owner or Admin, you’ll be able to view and update billing information. If you don’t see billing information, an Owner or Admin of your account can change your user level.
To view the billing information in your account, click your profile icon and choose Account & billing. Then, click the Billing drop-down and choose Billing information. On this page, you’ll add or update your payment method, contact information, and Tax ID. You’ll also find Mailchimp’s tax documents and your billing notification settings.
Accepted payment methods
Mailchimp accepts all major credit and debit cards, PayPal, SEPA Direct Debit, and iDEAL.
The billing address and currency you select will determine your payment options, so all of the payment methods might not be available on your billing information page. For example, Discover and American Express cards don’t support all currencies. Also, direct debit is only available to certain countries and is connected only when purchasing a Mailchimp plan or add-on.
