Accounts and plans

The Pro trial

Seven days of Pro, free, with a card on file: how it starts, what it gives, how to cancel, and what happens after.

How it starts

Every account can have the trial once. Press any Pro button: Start 7-day free trial on /pricing, a plan limit card, the account menu, or a Pro feature in the editor such as an upload to a real board, an export or a private project. Stripe's checkout page opens. Add a card (or another way to pay that Stripe shows you there), and the trial starts.

Nothing is charged for the 7 days. When they end, Stripe charges the Pro price you saw at checkout, and then every month (or every year, if you picked yearly) until you cancel. Cancel before the trial ends and you pay nothing.

We email you 3 days before the first charge, with its date and amount.

During the Black Friday sale (Black Friday through Cyber Monday), a Pro press on an account that has never paid offers the sale price first, new accounts included, and the trial stays yours to choose instead when you ask for it. A trial you canceled in its free days was never charged, so that account still gets the sale. See the sale.

Who gets it

Any account on Free that has never had a trial or a paid plan. It is once per inbox, not once per account: ada+2@ and Gmail's dotted spellings count as the same address. An account that already had a trial, or had a paid plan before, goes to the ordinary checkout, with no free days.

A student in a class does not get it: their plan comes from their teacher. Neither does a child under 13 whose account a parent set up with us. Teachers have a separate 30-day Classroom trial for the class tools, which the Pro trial does not include.

What it gives

Pro's room for seven days: unlimited projects, private and link-only projects, Upload to board and every export, the Build guide and the Schematic view, two hundred saves of history with name, star and compare, no badge on pictures, embeds and recordings, a live room with no people limit, more real internet for WiFi boards, and the whole EE lab. See the plans.

Mokxi AI answers fifty questions a day during the trial, where Pro has a hundred and Free has five, and the trial includes three Mokxi AI builds in all, where Pro has fifteen a month. At a regional price the trial has fewer, in step with the price, and never more than Pro has there. Once the first charge goes through, you have all of Pro's. A trial started without a card before November 9, 2026 keeps its five questions a day and one build.

Your card and your plan

Billing in Settings shows the trial's end date, the first charge's amount and date, and the card on file. From there:

  • Change card opens Stripe's page for the card.
  • Cancel trial cancels at the trial's end. You keep Pro until then, and nothing is charged.
  • Invoices opens Stripe's page with every invoice and receipt.

If your card is from India

Indian banks need a mandate for a card to be charged later, which you approve once at checkout with your bank's one-time password. Before the first charge your bank also sends you its own notice, and the charge goes through about a day after the trial ends. Some Indian cards are not enabled for international or recurring payments; if yours is refused at checkout, a different card, or Pay once for a year on /pricing, works instead.

When it ends

If you did not cancel, you are on Pro and Stripe charges the price you saw at checkout. If you canceled, you are back on Free and nothing is deleted. Every project stays yours to open, edit, run and save, however many you have. A private or link-only project stays private or link-only. Only a new project waits until you have fewer than 10, or until you choose Pro.

The emails

Two emails are about your trial, so they always come: a confirmation when it starts, and the reminder 3 days before the first charge. See the newsletter for the lists you can turn off.

A trial started before November 9, 2026

Trials started before then took no card and run to their original end date. Keep Pro in the editor's trial bar, the account menu or Billing adds a card; with more than two days left, nothing is charged until the trial's own end date. End trial on Billing ends it early, and any Pro days from invites stay and run after it.
