# Do I need a credit card to start Ayrshare?

> Starting the Launch Plan 28-day free trial requires a credit card or Stripe Link at checkout. Learn what the trial includes and how to cancel.

Yes. Starting the 28-day free trial of the [Launch Plan](/docs/multiple-users/business-launch-overview) requires a payment method. When you begin the trial from the [pricing page](https://www.ayrshare.com/pricing/), checkout collects a payment method (a credit card or Stripe Link) before the trial starts.

The trial is free for the full 28 days, and you can cancel anytime before it renews so you are not charged.

For ongoing use, the [Launch Plan](/docs/multiple-users/business-launch-overview) is the entry-tier multi-user plan (capped at 10 user profiles), and the full [Business Plan](/docs/multiple-users/business-plan-overview) is for scaling beyond that.
