# Circle lets members upgrade to annual or higher tiers in one step

By Steven Van · 2026-10-22

Upgrade upsells let community members who have already paid switch to an annual plan or move to a higher tier in a single step.

[Circle](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/circle>) started rolling out upgrade upsells on October 22, a new way for community owners to grow revenue from existing members.

Official Circle upgrade upsells announcement demo.

Once a member has made a purchase, they can switch to an annual plan or upgrade to a higher tier in one step, without cancelling and buying again.

For creators who run paid communities on Circle, that removes friction from the moment a member decides they want more.
