Downgrading to a free user account plan

Skip to content

Note: This article only applies to users of the public npm registry.

If you have a paid user account, but no longer need private packages, you can downgrade your paid organization to a free organization. When you downgrade from a paid to a free organization, you will lose the ability to install and publish private packages at the end of your last paid billing cycle. Your private packages will not be made publicly visible when you downgrade to a free plan.

  1. Log in to npm with your user account.
