# Pricing FAQs ## 1. Why should I upgrade to a higher plan? In the Free plan, basic features are available for you to try out the app. That helps you to have a clear understanding of the affiliate marketing system. However, for those serious about applying Affiliate marketing as an effective model and wishing to earn sales from the system, a higher plan is a **MUST.** Here are some **TOP** benefits when upgrading to a paid plan: * Provide **better** **resources** for affiliates to promote your shop (like Custom affiliate links, Auto-discount, unlimited Media space, Multiple coupons, Product analytics, etc.) * Have a **more** **professional** affiliate program with premium features (like Multiple programs, Auto-generate coupon, Auto-payout with PayPal, etc.) * **Expand affiliate network** (through Customer referrals, Post-purchase popup, Multi-level marketing, etc.) * Get more options to motivate your affiliates (like Lifetime commission, Gifts, Bonuses, etc.) Our **Growth**, **Professional,** and **Enterprise** plan provides advanced features that any professional affiliate marketing campaign needs. Upgrading means you would have more powerful options to run a proper affiliate campaign with our most dedicated support. ## 2. What is the billing rule? Payments will be made monthly. Anytime you want to stop your premium subscription, you can downgrade to a Free plan (Pricing > Free > Downgrade), and your monthly billing will be discontinued. ## 3. Do I have 14 trial days? Yes, the 14-day trial starts when you first click Approve Charge in the app. During this time, you can explore all the app's advanced features, and of course, you can downgrade to the Free plan anytime if you don't feel like needing it. After 14 trial days, you will get charged for the selected plan. ## 4. How is the performance fee calculated? The performance fee is calculated by **multiplying the total sales amount of approved referral by the rate applied**. Only approved referral sales contribute to the performance fee calculation, ensuring the fee is based on actual successful transactions. ## 5. Is there any other extra fee?
