What should you decide during the trial?

Use the trial to settle a defined buying question. Can your planned owner full the required client path at a fair cost? Record the actual expiry and stop-order route before enabling any paid usage. Write down the exact trial end date, card billing rules, and one real client flow to test. Do this before signing up.

Check the open GoHighLevel trial offer. Check its terms on the final offer screen. This article does not promise a special extension, bonus or zero-cost messages.

Trial decision flow: record terms, check the workflow, decide and confirm billing status.
An editorial checklist to structure your own test.

What the listed trial includes.

HighLevel currently advertises a 14-day free trial of the chosen plan tier. Its pricing disclaimer says billing starts on its own. This applies when the trial ends unless canceled, and telecommunications or third-party usage can incur fees during the trial. See the official pricing page before accepting an offer.

This is a public docs-based test plan. We did not activate an account or measure support, sending, conversion rates or setup time. The public offer does not prove the exact terms of a personalized promotion.

Trial terms to record before committing.
Item. Published position. Your check.
Advertised duration. 14 days. Save the actual expiry date, time and time zone shown for your offer.
Feature access. The chosen tier. Confirm the plan and required features. Do not assume every add-on is included.
Conversion to paid. Automatic billing unless canceled. Record the re-bill amount and billing interval.
Usage during trial. Telecommunications or third-party fees may apply. Identify metered services before enabling them.

Prepare a bounded evaluation.

Write the firm problem first. For example, a local service firm loses leads between a form submission and a booking. Define a successful exercise as a visible contact record, an assigned owner, an appropriate follow-up and a booking linked to that lead. A successful exercise shows the configured path, not a promise of more clients.

Use your own test contact and an address you control. Keep real client lists and live campaigns out of the first exercise. Record current tools, key links, export needs and who will keep up the workflow. Pick a tier that matches those needs, rather than selecting a larger plan merely to explore it.

Before accepting billing terms, capture the chosen plan, billing currency, taxes, re-bill interval, trial expiry and stop-order route. Set your own decision reminder ahead of expiry. A calendar reminder does not cancel a plan.

Follow one lead from capture to handoff.

Capture the enquiry.

Create a small form with only the fields needed to route the lead. Submit your own sample record and inspect the contact and pipeline entry. Check what happens. This applies when the same person submits again. Avoid judging the system by a template alone.

Check control and follow-up.

Assign an owner and a next action. Run the planned branch with a qualifying lead, then a record that should not receive the follow-up. Check that the latter stops correctly. If you connect a calendar, inspect the booking and the alert received by the planned person.

Record the exceptions.

Try a missing field, a changed booking and a manual handoff. Keep a short log. Expected outcome, observed outcome, setup changed and unresolved issue. These are proposed checks for your test, not results we obtained. Have the future owner repeat the key path without your steps. Do this before relying on it.

Keep plan and usage separate.

The official billing guide describes a wallet for usage charges. Treat the tool plan, metered messages, extra products and rollout work as split budget lines. Check billing at the agency and client levels. Act if you intend to rebill services.

The AI pricing documentation splits AI products and coverage. Phone charges can remain split from Voice AI coverage, and Agent Studio Flow Agents use pay-per-use billing across AI Employee plans. Do not translate an “uncapped” label into an uncapped total bill.

Cost worksheet for your own evaluation.
Budget line. Evidence to save.
Subscription. Selected tier, billing interval and re-bill amount.
Communications. Enabled services, current rates and wallet activity.
AI and extra products. Exact product, coverage, cap and any split usage.
Operation. Setup work, upkeep owner and remaining integrations.

Cancel through the right account owner.

For a directly billed agency plan, the current agency billing instructions start in Agency Settings, then Billing. Open “Want to modify/cancel your plan?”, choose Show More and Cancel Plan, and full the reason, warning and feedback steps through submission. If the stop-order control is unavailable, contact HighLevel support. Save the confirmation and check the plan status.

If another agency sold you access, contact that agency admin: HighLevel says it cannot cancel a plan managed by another agency. The same billing article currently says agency accounts cannot be paused. Do not rely on a pause option described in an older tutorial.

Export what you need before stop-order and read the data-loss warning. List linked phone services, apps and other plans apart. Do not assume canceling one plan cancels every external service. The terms of service often describe fees as non-refundable, with current exceptions and discretion. Stop-order is not a guaranteed refund. Raise a disputed charge through the appropriate billing channel.

Make the decision from your evidence.

Keep HighLevel only. Act if the key lead path works, the owner can keep up it and the expected total bill fits the firm. An unresolved control problem or a dependency you cannot support is a reason to defer the move, even. This applies when the demo looks polished.

If you keep, migrate in stages and retain the old process until the new one is checked. If you stop, finish stop-order before the deadline shown for your actual offer and retain your records.
