You are directed to a new tab with Onshape plans explained. Click the Select Standard button. Fill out the form and click the Confirm payment information button. Review and confirm your purchase.

A Professional Trial is available so that you can try out all the features of a Professional subscription, and then transition to a full Professional subscription once the trial is over. See Managing your Professional Trial for more information.

Onshape's Professional subscription allows you to create unlimited private documents. The Professional subscription is a company subscription (you are able to pay for one or multiple users).
