Free Hosting Trial

[bins]

I am trying to create an incentive for people to sign up and want to create a 30 day free trial.

If I create a standard package and:

• Set the term to one month at a price of 0.00
• Select 'Cancel at end of term'

I assume that this will just switch off access after a month?

If 'Yes', can the client then upgrade to a standard/paid account and keep everything going?

Yes, that will set a cancellation date of the end of the initial term, and the hosting plan will be cancelled and anything on the server likely deleted (depending on module, like cPanel will delete their cPanel account entirely on cancel). An alternative is to make the price 0.00 but set a renew price of something else, say 5.00. Then the first month will be free, and if they don't cancel they will be invoiced the renew price going forward.

Thanks.  Very helpful.
