# Your OcuTrap Subscription

An active subscription keeps your trap **connected over cellular** and unlocks the cloud features of the OcuTrap app. **Each trap has its own subscription**, so if you own more than one, each is billed and managed separately.

***

## What's Included

With an active subscription, your trap stays online and you get the full OcuTrap experience:

* **Cellular connectivity** — the cellular data your trap uses is included; there's no separate data plan or SIM card to buy.
* **Remote monitoring and control** — open, close, arm, and adjust settings from anywhere.
* **Captures and notifications** — real-time capture alerts by push and/or email (see [Notification Settings](/getting-started/app/notification-settings.md)).
* **Image history** — view captured and timelapse images in the app.
* **GPS and map view** — see where each trap is located.

***

## Plans & Billing

* Choose **Monthly** or **Annual** billing — annual is billed once a year and costs less than paying monthly.
* All billing is handled securely through **Stripe**.
* You can switch between plans, update your payment method, or cancel at any time. See [Managing Your Subscription](/account-and-billing/managing-your-subscription.md).

***

## Canceling

* You can **cancel at any time.** You won't be charged again, and your subscription **stays active until the end of the current billing period**.
* See [Managing Your Subscription](/account-and-billing/managing-your-subscription.md) for steps.

## If Your Subscription Lapses

A trap's subscription can end because you canceled it, a payment failed, or it was never started. When that happens, the **Plan** field in the trap's **Device Info** shows **Canceled** or **No Subscription**.

Because cellular data is part of your subscription, a trap **without an active subscription can no longer connect to the OcuTrap cloud.** This means:

* **Remote control stops** — you can't open, close, arm, or adjust the trap from the app.
* **Live captures and notifications stop** — the trap can't report events while disconnected.

Reactivating your subscription restores full function. You can **reactivate at any time**, and the trap continues to work without interruption once the plan is active again:

1. Go to your [console](https://base.ocutrap.com/console/) and sign in.
2. Open the trap's **Settings** and find the **Plan** field in **Device Info**.
3. Click **Update**, choose a plan, and complete checkout.
