🔍 What Is the Limited Time Challenge Only Deal?

The Limited Time Challenge Only Deal is a special promotional offer available exclusively to customers who sign up or activate the promo within a defined window. The deal includes a 30% discount and additional benefits tied to the Challenge promotion.

Because this is a time-sensitive offer, it comes with a hard deadline — typically midnight on the final day of the promotion. Once that deadline passes, the promo cannot be reactivated or extended.

⏰ Can the Deadline Be Extended?

No. The Challenge Only Deal deadline is firm and cannot be extended on an individual basis. This applies regardless of the reason — including technical issues experienced right before midnight, time zone differences, or a last-minute decision to upgrade.

  • The promo window closes automatically at midnight on the stated end date.
  • Support teammates are not able to manually reopen or extend the offer after it expires.
  • There are no exceptions to the deadline policy.

If you are considering the deal, we strongly recommend activating it well before the deadline to avoid missing out.

💡 What If I Already Activated the Promo Before the Deadline?

If you successfully activated the Limited Time Challenge Only Deal before the deadline, your promotional benefits are locked in — even if you have not yet upgraded your plan. Here is what that means in practice:

  1. Your 30% discount is retained. The discount is attached to your account from the moment you activate the promo, not from the moment you upgrade.
  2. Upgrading later does not void the deal. For example, if you activated the promo during the Challenge window and then upgrade from Starter to Pro in January, the 30% off and associated deal benefits will still apply to your upgraded plan.
  3. All other deal benefits carry over. Any additional perks included in the Challenge promo will follow your account through the upgrade.

📋 What Counts as Successfully Activating the Promo?

To be considered eligible, you must have completed the activation steps for the Challenge Only Deal before midnight on the deadline date. This typically means:

  • Signing up for the promotional plan or deal within the platform.
  • Receiving a confirmation that the promo has been applied to your account.
  • Seeing the discounted rate reflected in your billing or plan details.

If you are unsure whether your activation was recorded in time, check your account's billing section for the discounted rate, or reach out via the chat widget to confirm.

🚀 Upgrading Your Plan While Keeping the Promo

Upgrading from a lower-tier plan (such as Starter) to a higher-tier plan (such as Pro) after activating the promo is fully supported. Follow these steps to ensure a smooth upgrade:

  1. Log in to your Search Atlas account.
  2. Click your avatar in the top-right corner, select Billing, and open the Plans & Top-ups tab (Billing).
  3. Choose the plan you want to upgrade to (e.g., Pro).
  4. Review the pricing summary to confirm the 30% Challenge promo discount is applied before completing the upgrade.
  5. If the discount does not appear automatically, do not proceed — contact support through the chat widget first.

Important: Always verify the discounted rate is visible in the checkout or billing summary before confirming an upgrade. This ensures your Challenge deal benefits are correctly carried over.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

  • I missed the deadline. Can I still get the deal? No. Once the promotion window has closed, the deal is no longer available. Keep an eye on future promotions inside the platform.
  • Will the 30% discount apply to every billing cycle after I upgrade? Yes — as long as the promo terms state an ongoing discount, it will continue to apply to your recurring billing after the upgrade.
  • What if I want to upgrade to a plan higher than Pro? The same rules apply. If you activated the promo before the deadline, the benefits should carry over. Verify the discount in your billing summary before confirming.
  • Is the Challenge Only Deal available for annual and monthly plans? Promo applicability may vary by billing cycle. Check the original deal details in your account or contact support to confirm.
