Yes, you can upgrade and downgrade your account from Account Manager. Many of our members like to upgrade to a yearly account after they have used the service for a few months. Yearly accounts are cost effective, offer best value and are hassle free. We would like to keep this process very simple and free of administrative hassles for you as well as us. Please DO NOT change your account manager settings unless you really want to upgrade or downgrade as it can lead to hold on your account if Payment for new account type selected is not completed.

Upgrading will also require completing Payment at Paypal for immediate access to job posting services.

Mid-term downgrade will subject the prior account type to be cancelled immediately and subject them to same refund policy as mentioned above. Downgrading might require completing Payment at Paypal for immediate access to job posting services.
