About TrialScout
We help you find free trials without getting burned by hidden charges, tricky cancellations, or misleading terms.
What we do differently
- Credit card warnings — We always show whether a trial requires a card upfront.
- Cancellation difficulty ratings — Easy, Medium, or Hard, with notes on gotchas like early termination fees.
- Trial type clarity — We distinguish between a real free trial, a permanent free tier, and a money-back guarantee. They're not the same thing.
- Verified data — Every listing shows when it was last verified. We don't leave stale offers up.
- Honest "no trial" labels — If a service doesn't have a free trial (like Netflix), we say so clearly rather than sending you on a wild goose chase.
How we make money
Some links on TrialScout are affiliate links. When you sign up through them, we may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you. This is how we keep the site free to use.
We don't let affiliate relationships influence what we show or how we rate trials. Services with no affiliate program (like Spotify or Netflix) appear on this site because they're useful to you, not because they pay us.
A note on accuracy
Trial terms change. We verify listings regularly, but always double-check the terms on the service's own site before signing up. Each listing shows a "last verified" date so you know how fresh the information is.
