Frequently Asked Questions

Am I eligible for a Ring Protect plan?

After you set up your Ring device (doorbell, camera, or alarm) then you are eligible to purchase a Ring Protect Plan. Before you set up a device, you can review what plan would work best for you. A free 30-day trial of Ring Protect starts immediately when you set up your device, unless you have an existing plan at your location. This way you can use the benefits while you decide what plan is best for you. Multi and Pro Plans cover all devices at your home, and Solo covers one device.

I am having trouble subscribing? What do I do?

We are here to help! First, make sure you have set up a device at your location. If you were not the person that set up the device, and you are a shared user on the account, please ask the device owner to log in to their account on Ring.com to subscribe.

Learn More

Is a Ring Protect Plan required to use my Ring products?

No. Your Ring products provide certain features without a plan. We recommend subscribing to a plan to get the most out of your devices with video recording and other advanced features.

Can I try Ring Protect before I subscribe?

Yes. A free 30-day trial of Ring Protect starts when you first set up your Ring doorbell, camera, or alarm (unless you have an existing plan at your location). Some retailers may offer special promotions with different trial periods. If you are activating a device at a location that is already covered by a Multi or Pro Plan, your new home device is already covered.

What happens when I add a new Ring device?

With a Ring Protect Multi or Pro Plan, all devices at one location are covered automatically. If you're currently on a Solo Plan and want to add more home devices at the same address, you can upgrade to Multi or Pro to cover any additional devices and enjoy our most advanced features.

I have a Ring Alarm system. Which Ring Protect Plan is best for me?

If you have a Ring Alarm or Ring Alarm Pro, we recommend the Pro Plan to get Alarm Professional Monitoring and request the backup you need in an emergency. Ring Pro also offers 24/7 Backup Internet (for Alarm Pro), SOS Emergency Response, Video Search and other advanced intelligent features.

I have a Ring Doorbell or Camera. Which Ring Protect Plan is best for me?

Ring Protect Solo is our most popular plan to cover all home devices, and offers video recording for all home cameras and doorbells. If you want our most advanced features, you can add Pro Intelligence to give one device the power to recognize faces, events, and more, so you can know more about what really matters.

I have Ring products at more than one address. Does one Ring Protect Plan cover them all?

No. You'll need to subscribe to a separate Ring Protect Plan for each address you want to cover.

Can I manage my Ring devices from multiple mobile phones or tablets?

Yes. Every Ring device can be monitored and managed in the Ring app by an unlimited number of mobile phones and tablets, as well as by signing in to Ring.com on a computer (certain features may not be available on computer).

Which forms of payment are accepted for Ring Protect Plans?

Ring only accepts digital credit or debit card payments and any other payment methods offered through our website Ring.com. We do not accept any payments in the form of cash, check, or money order. Any such payments sent to our address will be returned to you, and you will be instructed to subscribe and pay for Ring Protect Plans online. Payments that are mailed to Ring may cause a lapse in your plan coverage. If you do not subscribe and pay for a Ring Protect Plan online within your trial period, or prior to the expiration of your existing subscription plan, you will lose your stored video recordings, and they will not be retrievable.

I have a Solo, Multi, Pro Plan, or Virtual Security Guard Plan. How do I redeem my 10% discount?

Simply log in to your account on Ring.com and add eligible Ring products to your cart. The discount will automatically be applied to your order total on Ring.com. Terms and conditions apply. Discount may not be available in certain jurisdictions where devices are not sold on Ring.com.

What are the terms to the 10% discount?

You can receive 10% off select products at Ring.com. Please view our terms and conditions here.
