Upcoming Billing and Infrastructure Updates (October 2026)

What's changing with your DaySmart Pet billing starting October 19, 2026, including invoice access, payment method timing, and plan upgrades.

Written by Kate Biel

šŸ“ Overview

We're upgrading the infrastructure behind your DaySmart account. These changes start October 19, 2026 and affect how you access invoices, when you can update your payment method, and in some cases how your subscription is billed.

Here's what's changing and what you need to do.


āœ… What to Do Before October 19, 2026

  1. Verify your admin email address

  2. Save any past invoices you need

    • Starting as early as October 20, past invoices will no longer be visible in your DaySmart account management portal. If you'd like to view previous invoices past the deadline, they can be found in your email.
      ​

  3. Make payment method changes now, not later

    • If you need to update your card or bank details, do it before October 19. If you work with an accountant or bookkeeper, let them know about these dates now.

āš ļø Warning: Do not update payment methods October 19 to 26.

During this window, payment method changes will not reliably save to your account billing information.

If you need to update your payment method during this period, wait until October 27 and then make the change. If your card is expiring or has already failed, contact our billing team at [email protected] rather than attempting the update yourself.


šŸ“§ Where to Find Your Invoices Going Forward

Invoices will be sent directly to your admin email address.

Looking for a past invoice? Check your email inbox for billing receipts from DaySmart with the invoice attached.

šŸ’³ Changes to Your Billing

Moving from Arrears to Advance Billing

This applies to a small group of customers. If your account is currently billed in arrears, it is moving to advance billing.

  • Arrears billing: You're invoiced after your subscription period ends. For example, you pay for October on November 1.

  • Advance billing: You're invoiced before your subscription period begins.

What you may see during the transition: If you were previously billed in arrears, you may see one additional charge covering the current subscription month. This aligns your billing cycle with the new schedule.

🧠 Example: You might be billed for both October and November during the transition. After that one-time adjustment, your invoices follow the advance schedule, and your ongoing cost does not change.


šŸ·ļø Legacy Plan Upgrades

Legacy plans like Cloud Legacy, Deluxe Solo, and Legacy Custom packages are being upgraded to the next subscription tier at no additional cost.

What this means:

  • More features at your current price

  • No change to your subscription cost

  • Upgraded functionality available immediately
