Bolt-Ons Screen

How the Bolt-Ons screen is laid out, what the active table means, and where to add, cancel, or restore subscription add-ons.

Work Planner Team13 April 2026

Open Dashboard > Subscription > Manage Bolt-Ons to see every add-on already attached to the account and to add another one. This is the detailed companion to Subscription Overview, not a separate billing area.

What The Main Table Shows

  • Bolt-On: the add-on name and short description.
  • Type: tells you whether that add-on is Recurring or One-time.
  • Quantity: shows how many units were purchased for quantity-based add-ons.
  • Price: the stored price label, including interval where relevant.
  • Billing: the lifecycle text such as Renews ..., Cancels ..., or One-time purchase.
  • Status: usually Active or Cancelling.

Row Actions

  • Cancel: shown on active recurring add-ons that can be stopped at the end of the current period.
  • Uncancel: shown when a recurring add-on has already been cancelled but has not ended yet.
  • No actions: shown on one-time add-ons or add-ons that do not support those lifecycle changes.

Add Bolt-On

The Add Bolt-On button opens the selection popup with the extra add-ons currently available to this account. That popup is where you choose what to buy next, and the step-by-step is covered in Choosing a Bolt-On to Add.

Card Payments Bolt-On

The Card Payments bolt-on adds card payments to a plan that does not include them, for £5 a month: taking cards on your phone with Tap to Pay on iPhone or Android or a card reader, card payment links, and saving customers' cards. Pro and Team already include card payments, so it is not offered on those plans. Once it is active, connect Stripe, Square, PayPal or Zettle on the Payment Providers screen before taking a payment.

Automatic Top-Ups

Below the table, the Automatic top-ups section lists the credit packs that can buy themselves again when the balance runs low, so texting does not stop part-way through a round. Setting one up, and the monthly limit that keeps it in check, is covered in Automatic Credit Top-Ups.

Status Messages

Success and error feedback appears as dismissible toasts after purchases, cancellations, restores, and loading problems. If a payment method is missing for a chargeable add-on, Work Planner can send you back to the Subscription area instead of leaving you on this page, because a saved payment method is required before the purchase can finish.

When To Use This Page Instead Of Subscription

The Subscription overview is useful for a quick count. This page is where you come when you need detail: renewal timing, quantity, cancellation state, and add-on-specific actions. Lifetime plan changes are handled from Change Plan instead.
