Is there a cheaper plan than the Plus plan, that offers more space?
my question is:
Is there any plan that is even cheaper than the normal basic plan of 2000 tb? It happens that I want to have more storage space, but the cheapest plan is still quite expensive.
Is there an alternative storage plan, which is cheaper?
Hi wdshieh, if your account is eligible, you could upgrade to the Dropbox Basic Extra plan, which offers all the existing features on Basic, but with 50 GB of quota.

Just to clarify that a bit for you, rperry337, when you upgrade to a paid account your referral bonus doubles from 500MB each to 1GB each. If you later downgrade back to the Basic plan, your referrals will again be halved back to 500MB each.

Thank you for the reply. I am still not sure I understand. If I upgrade from my basic plan to the plus and decide it is not for me. When I downgrade do I still keep the 10 GB of data my basic plan that I have now.
Thanks

Yes.
What we're describing is that when you upgrade, the bonus space you've earned from referrals will also double. When you downgrade at a later date, that bonus space will revert back to what it was before the upgrade.

買了Plus的2TB兩三年,
到現在還是只用到112GB,
所以希望能出更小容量500GB的客群做使用 - Ahmedsalahudin1 year agoNew member | Level 2If u give 200gb only in 190 pkr or 0.65 dollar per month every small user will buy it and you will generate good revenue

We are going to pay for a good service, but here even the cheapest plan is too expensive.
- Avond1 year agoNew member | Level 2If the price were under ten dollars I would pay it gladly, as it is too much I think more people would buy the upgrade at a lower price and you’d make just as much profit.
