Hi, I joined quickbooks through Google playstore with a smart plan and I want to change to the essential plan and direct debit, how do I do this?

Thanks for checking out the Community, celticservicesuk.

I'm here to guide you in updating your QuickBooks Online plan and payment method. For subscriptions via Google Play, you can follow these steps to change the mode of payment method:

1. Open Google Play.
2. Tap the Profile icon.
3. Select Payments & Subscriptions, then choose Payment Methods.
4. Click Edit Payment Method, then select Edit.
5. Make the necessary changes, and hit Update

After that, go to the Billing & subscription page in QuickBooks Online to upgrade your plan to Essentials. Here's how:

1. Sign in to QBO as a primary or company admin.
2. Click the Gear icon, then choose Account and settings.
3. Select the Billing & subscription tab.
4. In the QuickBooks Online section, click Upgrade your plan.
5. Review the available plans and then select Choose plan.
6. Follow the on-screen steps to complete the process.

Additionally, here's a reference that will guide you in updating your card on file, changing your subscription, and viewing your billing history in QBO: Manage billing subscription information.
