How do I upgrade from being a free subscriber to a paid subscriber?

If you've initially signed up as a free subscriber to a publication and would like to view paid posts, you'll need to change your subscription plan.

To become a paid subscriber, follow these steps:

1. Log into your Substack account at https://substack.com and click "Sign In".

2. Click on your profile icon and select Settings from the drop-down menu.

Note: If you're a paid subscriber to at least one publication on Substack, you can subscribe with just one-click and will not need to re-enter your credit card details. If you've only been a free subscriber on Substack, you'll be prompted to enter your credit card details.
