What Happens When My Trial Ends - Do I Lose Access Immediately?

Updated over a month ago

When your BrandMentions free trial is close to ending, it helps to know exactly what will happen to your account, your access, and your data. The outcome depends on whether you keep your trial active or cancel it before the end date.

If you do nothing

If you keep your trial active and do not cancel:

  • When the trial ends, if you entered payment details, your account is automatically converted to a paid subscription

  • Your saved payment method is charged for the first billing period

  • You do not lose access to your account or data

  • You can continue using BrandMentions without any interruption

This automatic upgrade is designed to keep your monitoring running smoothly.

If you cancel your trial

If you decide not to continue with a paid plan, you need to cancel before the trial ends.

When you cancel your trial:

  • The cancellation takes effect immediately

  • Your access to the app stops and you can no longer use the platform

  • No new charges are created after the cancellation

You will not be billed at the end of the trial, because the subscription has already been stopped.

What happens to your data after cancellation

After you cancel your trial:

  • Your projects and data may be kept for a limited retention period, so you can come back and subscribe later

  • During this time, your monitoring stops, but your data can often be restored if you upgrade to a paid plan

  • If you do not subscribe within the retention period, your data can be permanently deleted in line with our data handling and privacy rules

If you want to know the exact retention period for your account, contact the BrandMentions support team.

By understanding what happens at the end of your trial, you can decide if you want to continue with a paid plan, cancel in time to avoid charges, or come back later while your data is still available.
