How do I add, update, or change a credit card on my Heroku account?

Issue

You need to add a new credit card or update existing payment information on an Heroku Team or Personal Heroku Account.

Resolution

With Heroku, it's possible to have a separate credit card for a Personal account versus a Heroku Team. It's important to understand this attribute of the Dashboard before we describe the process for updating your card. Having separate billings, divided by teams and/or personal accounts provides flexibility for those who wish to accomplish the following scenarios:

  • Bill individual clients directly for their spend
  • Isolate billing costs across multiple departments

If this is of interest to you, we recommend reviewing our article on billing multiple clients with Heroku:

Card removal

Please note that removing your card will have repercussions on your Heroku account. We recommend familiarizing yourself with how removing your card will affect your account, as it is not reversible.
