Is "IMDbPro Basic Subscription" really free, wording on button makes me wonder?

Hello.

on

link

it says "  the Basic Subscription offers limited functionality at no cost. "

but the yellow button down to the right says "Try for free",

that "try" sounds to me like it's not permanently free?

Hello @kristin,

At IMDbPro, we offer two types of membership: a paid membership, IMDbPro Premium Subscription, which includes all the benefits of IMDbPro, and a free version with limited benefits, IMDbPro Basic Subscription.

The free version, IMDbPro Basic Subscription, remains free until you decide to upgrade to IMDbPro Premium Subscription. Otherwise, if you only want to keep your IMDbPro Basic Subscription membership, you can do so for as long as you wish.

For more information regarding Which IMDbPro Subscription is right for me? Please review our subscription comparison guide.

Hello @kristin,

I’m sorry for any misunderstanding. I assure you that if you click on the option that says “Try for free,” you will not be charged, as this is the free version of the IMDbPro membership.

On the other hand, if you select the option that says “Start Free Trial,” after 30 days you will be charged for the payment plan you previously selected.
