Seat management is currently available to Primary Owners of Claude for Work plans on annual invoiced contracts.
As a Claude for Work customer on an annual invoiced contract, you can flexibly manage and add seats to your organization beyond your initial contract allocation. This article explains how seat management works and what to expect regarding billing.
Understanding Seat Management
Key Points
You can add seats beyond your initial contract allocation at any time
New seats are billed at your contract's existing per-user price
While seats cannot be removed from your total allocation, you can reassign them to different team members
How Billing Works
You'll receive an invoice immediately when new seats are added
Each new seat is prorated for the remainder of your annual term
For auto-renewal contracts, your renewal will include the total number of seats in use at the end of your term
Adding and Managing Seats
To manage your seats:
Go to your Billing Settings
Under “Seats” click the pencil icon
Make any necessary seat increases
Review your increase carefully before confirming your purchase
Click “Upgrade” to finalize your changes
Billing Example
Here's how billing works when adding seats:
If you start with 100 seats on January 1st and:
Add 5 more seats on March 1st
You will receive an invoice immediately for:
The 5 seats added (billed for 10 months remaining in the term)
SSO and SCIM Integration
If your organization uses SSO or SCIM:
Primary Owners must add seats before new users can sign in via SSO
SCIM provisioning requires available seats for new user addition
We recommend monitoring your seat usage and adding seats proactively to ensure uninterrupted access for your team
