Why We Added a 30-Day Pro Trial (Free Stays Free)

We now give every new account 30 days of Pro — free. Here's why we made this change and what it means for the Free plan.

Key Takeaway: Every new FaveCard account now starts with a free 30-day Pro trial — all features, no credit card. After that, choose Pro or stay on Free forever.

FaveCard team — why we added a 30-day Pro trial

Published: March 2026

We just made a change to how new FaveCard accounts work. Starting now, every new account gets 30 days of Pro — free. No credit card. No catch. After 30 days, you choose: stay on Pro or switch to Free.

Here’s why.


We heard from you

Since we launched, the most common question from new users has been: “What does Pro actually do?”

And honestly, that’s our fault. When you sign up for Free and everything works — stamps, Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, scanning app — it’s hard to understand why Pro exists. You can’t miss what you’ve never tried.

Some users told us they didn’t even know they could add their own logo to the card. Others didn’t realize they could send messages to customers’ phones. They’d been on Free for months, perfectly happy, but unaware of what they were leaving on the table.


So we changed the starting experience

Now every new account starts with Pro. For 30 days, you get everything:

  • Your logo and banner on the loyalty card
  • Custom stamp icons — not just the defaults
  • Customer messaging — send offers straight to their phone
  • Full customer analytics — emails, visit history, the works
  • CSV export — take your data with you
  • Your logo & banner on the card — your brand only

After 30 days, you decide. If Pro is worth it, subscribe. If not, switch to Free — and your card keeps working exactly as before.


Free is still forever

Let’s be clear: we are not removing the Free plan.

Free still gives you:

  • Unlimited customers
  • Unlimited employees
  • Apple & Google Wallet
  • Stamp scanning app
  • Basic analytics

That’s a full loyalty program. More than most competitors offer in their paid plans.

The trial just means you get to see what Pro adds before you decide. We think that’s fair. You should know what you’re choosing between.


No credit card. Zero risk.

We’re not asking for payment info upfront. There’s no “forgot to cancel” trap. After 30 days, if you don’t subscribe to Pro, you automatically move to Free. Your card keeps working. Your customers keep their stamps and rewards.

Nothing is lost.


Why this matters for small businesses

Most loyalty card platforms charge $25–$49/month from day one. Some don’t even have a free trial. Others give you 14 days and then demand a credit card.

We think you should try everything before you pay anything. That’s why we built FaveCard this way:

  1. 30 days of Pro — experience every feature
  2. Then choose — Pro if you want full branding and data, Free if the basics are enough
  3. Free forever — your card never stops working

No other platform does this.


The bottom line

We added the trial because we want you to make an informed choice — not because we’re taking something away. Free is still free. Forever.

If you’re already on FaveCard, nothing changes. If you’re new, you now get 30 days to see everything Pro offers before deciding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a credit card for the trial?

No. The 30-day Pro trial is completely free. No credit card, no payment info, no commitment. Just sign up and start.

What happens after 30 days?

You choose: subscribe to Pro to keep custom branding, campaigns, and full customer data — or switch to Free. On Free, your loyalty card keeps working forever with unlimited customers and employees. Nothing is lost.

Is the Free plan going away?

No. Free is still free, forever. We added the trial so you can experience Pro before deciding — not to replace the Free plan.

Can I skip the trial and go straight to Free?

Yes. You can switch to the Free plan anytime from the billing page in your dashboard. The trial is there for you to explore, not a requirement.
