Start your 7-day free trialNo card required to start. Before day 7 ends we email you: keep it for $10/month, or simply walk away. Keeping it is your own next step: sign in, then check out in Stripe. That checkout takes a card, starts its own 7-day free trial on the $10/month subscription, and bills $10 when those days are up and $10 every month after that until you cancel — from your account, where “Manage subscription” opens Stripe’s billing portal.
