How the 30-day free trial works
- You pick a plan and a billing period, then add a card on Stripe's secure checkout page.
- Nothing is charged until day 31. Cancel before then and it costs nothing.
- Yearly plans get the same 30 days. On day 31 the whole year is charged in one payment.
- One free trial per account.
- Cancel any time from your billing page in two clicks. There is no contract and no phone call.
More than one location
Every plan is priced per location: one shop is one, five shops are five. You can add or remove locations yourself, up to 25, and Stripe prorates the difference. Each location gets its own score, reviews, competitors and weekly plan under one login.
Running more than 25 locations, or managing them for clients? Email support@killcriticseo.com and we'll put together a volume plan. Multi-client dashboards and white-label reports are on the roadmap, not in the product yet.
Pricing questions
How much does it cost, and can I pay yearly?
Starter is $49.99 per month per location, Growth $99.99, Pro $149.99. Paying annually takes 15% off the monthly rate on every tier and is charged once for the whole year — $509.88, $1,019.88 or $1,529.88 per location, saving $90.00, $180.00 and $270.00 a year respectively. Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial: you add a card at checkout, nothing is charged until day 31, and cancelling before then costs nothing.
Is there a free version?
Yes. The 0–100 score and fix list are free, with no card and no plan, for as long as you like. The tools built on it (review reply drafts, Online listings, competitor tracking, the weekly plan and the content tools) need a paid plan, and every paid plan starts with a 30-day free trial.
How does per-location pricing work?
One location is one unit of your plan price — a second shop is a second unit, prorated by Stripe from the day you add it. Every location gets its own audit score, reviews, competitors, and weekly plan, all under one login on the Locations page. You can add or remove location slots any time, self-serve up to 25; past that, email us and we will build a volume plan around what you run.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes — subscriptions are managed through Stripe and you can cancel from your billing portal in two clicks. No contracts, no phone calls.
