Locked features and plan entitlements
Updated 31 October 2026 · 2 min read · 10 Contents
Plain-language meaning
A locked feature means your current plan or sign-in state lacks the entitlement, not that the feature is broken. Locks always come with an explanation of what unlocks them.
Where it appears #
Locks appear on plan-gated workflows across research, portfolio, alerts and export features, usually with an upgrade or sign-in explanation in place of the content.
Step-by-step workflow #
1. Read the lock explanation. 2. Confirm you are signed in. 3. Open Account to review the active plan (Free, Pro or Max) and its entitlements; a signed-out request asks you to sign in before any plan check. 4. If you recently upgraded, reload once so the new entitlement is picked up. 5. If a feature your plan includes stays locked, report it through Feedback with your plan name and the page.
Worked example #
A Free-plan user can see a Pro-only workflow with an upgrade explanation while all public research keeps working. Upgrading changes access to the workflow, not the underlying market evidence.
How to interpret the result #
Locked is an entitlement state, unavailable is an evidence state, and the two must not be confused: upgrading never creates market data that does not exist.
Limitations and common mistakes #
A plan badge is not a quality score. Billing changes can take a moment to propagate, and regional billing products can differ; where no checkout exists yet the plan page says online payment is coming soon.
Market-specific differences #
INR payments support UPI, card and net banking and other currencies use an international checkout; members can also subscribe to individual exchanges. Entitlement behaviour is otherwise consistent across markets.
