# License management

Manage your GitProtect subscription through GitHub.

**GitProtect licenses purchased though GitHub Marketplace are managed directly inside GitHub. Subscription updates automatically adjust repository backup quotas without pausing active backup routines. This integration simplifies billing while maintaining uninterrupted coverage across your DevOps environment.**

***

## Important notice

Cancellation and extension of licenses purchased through **GitHub Marketplace** are handled and billed by the marketplace itself, **without GitProtect involvement**.

***

## Extending the license

To change or extend your **GitProtect** subscription via **GitHub**, go to your account settings (profile picture > <i class="fa-gear">:gear:</i> **Settings**) and expand the **Billing and licensing** menu in **Access** section. Select **Additional billing details** from the drop-down menu, then click **Edit** > **Change plan** in your **GitProtect** marketplace app.
