"Included" means the feature does not add a separate Deployment Protection charge to your plan.

## Password Protection charges

For Pro teams with project-level pricing, Vercel adds a $20 monthly charge when you enable Password Protection for a project. Each protected project is charged separately. Disable Password Protection from the [project's settings](/docs/deployment-protection/methods-to-protect-deployments/password-protection#how-to-enable-and-manage-password-protection)

### Existing teams with Advanced Deployment Protection

Existing Pro teams that previously purchased Advanced Deployment Protection add-on keep their current billing model and functionality, including password protection for every project. The add-on will appear on invoices as Team-level Password Protection.

If you prefer to switch to project-level Password Protection, contact support.
