**TL;DR:** you can now **pause** a user’s subscription **indefinitely** with the **“Pausar Indefinidamente”** action and **reactivate it anytime**.

> This builds on recent subscription improvements (e.g., [coupons for the first billing cycles](https://publicala.featurebase.app/changelog/new-discount-coupons-for-the-first-billing-cycles-of-a)) and delivers on what we previewed in the new [Subscriptions Dashboard](https://publicala.featurebase.app/changelog/boosting-your-subscription-management-with-our-new-dashboard).

## What’s changing?

Until now, you could either keep a subscription active or cancel it. With **Pausar Indefinidamente**, you get an in-between state to **stop billing and access** without losing the plan’s history or settings.

## How it works

- In the **Subscriptions Dashboard**, open a subscriber and click **Pause Indefinitely**.
- The subscription remains **Paused** until you choose **Resume**.
- When reactivated, the cycle continues as defined by the plan rules.

## Availability

- **Available now** in the **Subscriptions Dashboard**.
