# Does ServiceM8 offer a free trial, and do I need a credit card?

> Find out whether ServiceM8 offers a free trial and whether you need a credit card to start.

Yes. ServiceM8 offers a 14-day free trial, and you do not need a credit card to start the trial.

You only need to provide payment details if you decide to continue onto a paid plan after the trial.

If you are evaluating ServiceM8, the trial is the right time to test your real workflow, staff setup, and device mix before you subscribe.
