How the free 30 days work
It starts
On the setup call, once your shop is configured and confirmed as a real auto repair shop at that address. You leave that call live, not with homework. No card.
Before it ends
We email you while there’s still time to decide. You can add a card at any point during the 30 days; the first charge still waits for the end date.
When it ends
With a card on file, your first invoice runs at $99 a shop. Without one, your shops come off Today Mechanic search and you’re charged nothing. Add a card later and they relist.
Questions
Do I really not need a card?
Right. The 30 days run without one, so there is no money to get back if you decide against it. We offer to set up payment on the call, and skipping it costs you nothing.
What’s the most this can cost me?
On the monthly plan, one month. The trial takes no card, and after it you’re month to month at $99 a shop, so if the bays don’t run differently you cancel from the billing portal and that’s the end of it. The yearly plan is a year at a time, which is what pays for the discount, so start monthly if you want the shorter commitment.
I run more than one shop. How does that get billed?
One subscription for you, not one per shop. Every shop is the same rate, so on monthly three shops is $99 × 3 = $297 a month, on a single invoice. No per location surcharge and no sales call to find out the number.
What if I add or close a shop mid-cycle?
A shop you add goes live straight away. On monthly its $99 starts on your next invoice rather than as a mid-cycle charge. On yearly you’re charged for the rest of the year then and there, because otherwise a shop added in month two would ride free until the renewal. Closing one drops the amount from your next invoice on either plan, with nothing refunded for the cycle you’re in.
Does a second shop get its own free trial?
No. The 30 days belong to you, not to a location. A shop you add halfway through has whatever’s left of your window, not a fresh 30 days.
Do I have to do the setup myself?
No, that’s what the call is for. We put in your hours, bays, advisors and the work you take while you’re on it. We book a limited number of these a month, so the calendar is the honest constraint on how fast we can bring shops on.
Is there a contract?
Not on the monthly plan: it’s month to month, and cancelling from the billing portal leaves your shops live through the cycle you’ve already paid for. The yearly plan commits to a year and renews for another one unless you cancel before it ends, which is the trade for the lower rate. Either way there’s no multi year lock in and nothing to sign.
Is sales tax included?
No. Sales tax is added at checkout where your state requires it, so your invoice total can sit a little above the figures on this page.
What happens if a payment fails?
Your shops stay listed for 3 days past the cycle end while the card is retried. Sort the card out inside that window and nothing goes dark.
Can I talk to someone first?
Email [email protected]. A person answers.
Try it on your own cars.
Take your next 30 days of real bookings through it and see whether the bays run differently. If they don’t, you owe nothing.
