A free trial can be useful when you know what you want to try and when it ends. Compare these details before you start.
Check the trial length and eligibility
Look for the start date, end date and whether the offer is for new customers only. A headline may not explain every restriction.
Look for renewal and payment terms
Read whether a payment method is required and what happens when the trial ends. Note the renewal amount, billing frequency and cancellation deadline shown by the provider.
Set your own reminder
If the trial renews, save a reminder before the cancellation deadline. Keep the provider’s confirmation and instructions where you can find them.
Decide what you want to test
Choose one or two features to try. At the end, decide whether they are useful enough for you to continue.
