How to Downgrade Your Google Workspace Account to a Lower-Tier Edition

Quick and easy-to-follow guide for Google Workspace administrators

When can I downgrade to another Google Workspace edition?

  • You can downgrade your Google Workspace account to a lower-tier subscription plan at any time.

How does the downgrade affect my account?

  • Your users’ access to services won’t be affected.
  • You will lose access to some features, such as extra storage.
  • The cost of your account will likely decrease.

Can I downgrade only some but not all of my users?

  • Downgrading applies to all users in your account. You can’t have some users on one edition and others on another one.

How long does it take to downgrade?

  • It may take up to 24 hours before you lose features due to the downgrade, but the new pricing goes into effect immediately.
