What is a Committee Licence?

A Committee Licence in BoardPro allows you to create and manage committees within your board account. Each committee requires one licence, and the number of licences in your subscription determines how many committees you can manage.

Committee licences are prorated onto your subscription billing.

Click on 'Manage Licences' to purchase additional licences or reduce the licences on your subscription.

Buy additional Committee Licences

To increase the number of committee licences in your subscription, click "Manage Licences".

Select the number of licences to add. The updated number of licences will be displayed. Click "Next" to proceed.

On the payment screen, you can see the prorated amount due today and the updated subscription cost on the next renewal. Click "Confirm Payment" to complete the process.

Your subscription will be updated, and the payment method on file will be charged. The updated committee licence information will appear at the top of the Committees page.

Talk to Sales

You may be eligible for a discount for multiple committees. Select "Talk to Sales" to schedule a time with the Sales Team. This option will close the licence dialogue screen without adding or charging your subscription.

Reduce Committee Licences

You can reduce committee licences on your subscription only if unused licences are available.

If all licences are in use, you must first delete an active committee you no longer need to free up a licence.

Click "Manage Licences" to adjust the number of licences, and click "Next" to proceed.

A dialogue will display a preview of your updated subscription, including the amount due on subscription renewal. Click "Confirm" to finalise the process.

Available unused Committee Licence

If you have unused committee licences, creating a committee is simple.

Click "Create New" option to add a new Committee to your account. Give your committee a name and click "+ Create new".

Once your committee is created, it will appear in the list of Active Committees. You can import people from the parent Board or add new people as needed.

Managing Licences for the New Committee

If your subscription doesn’t have enough committee licences to match your active committees. (Eg you have a Free Trial committee) You will see an 'over-assigned committee licence' notice.

When you are ready, click 'Add more licences' to update your subscription with the appropriate number of licences to keep your new committee active.

A dialogue will display the 'prorated' charge due today. Click "Confirm Payment" to update your subscription. This will charge the payment method on file. This dialogue will also preview your subscription cost for the next billing cycle.

Try for Free

You can try out a fully functional Committee for 10-days with no charge. This will postpone the subscription charge and you won't be charged for 10days.
