Ending a trial of GitHub Enterprise

You can end your trial at any time by purchasing GitHub Enterprise or canceling the trial. Otherwise, after 30 days, your trial will expire.

GitHub Enterprise trial accounts are automatically deleted 90 days after the trial period ends if the account has not been converted to a paid account.

If you purchase GitHub Enterprise, you can use the full GitHub Enterprise Cloud feature set and billing capabilities. See About enterprise billing.

If you cancel your trial:

• Organizations that you transferred into the enterprise are removed and reverted to their previous plans and settings.
• Enterprise owners and members lose access to the enterprise account and any organizations that you created during the trial.

If your trial expires:

• Organizations that you transferred into the enterprise are removed and reverted to their previous plans and settings.
• Enterprise owners and members retain access to the enterprise account and organizations created during the trial in a downgraded state, allowing you to either upgrade to GitHub Enterprise or move assets elsewhere.
• You can delete an expired trial to remove people's access to the enterprise and organizations created during the trial.

For more information about the effects of downgrading an organization, see Downgrading your account's plan.
