How does the Novalya trial work?

How does the Novalya trial work?


Reading time: 3 min


Quick summary


Signing up through the website opens a 14-day trial. A payment card is required at sign-up, but it is only charged at the end of the trial. You can stop before the 14 days are up, and nothing is charged. The trial does not apply to subscriptions bought through a promotion or a special offer.



What the trial includes


14 days on the plan you chose


During the trial you use the plan you picked at sign-up, with its features and its quotas. There is no reduced version and no feature switched off during this period: what you are testing is what you will have afterwards.


Your plan's message and pipeline quotas apply normally during the trial. To see the limits of each tier:


See the article: What are Novalya plans and their limits?


The clock starts at sign-up


The 14 days start when your subscription is created, not when you send your first message or connect your first social account. Connecting your Facebook or Instagram account early therefore leaves you more time to genuinely test the tool.



A payment card is required at sign-up


Why it is asked for


A valid payment card is needed to open the trial. That is what allows the switch to a paid subscription at the end of the 14 days, without interruption, if you decide to continue.


The card is not charged during the trial. The first payment is taken at the end of the 14 days.


Changing your card during the trial


You can replace your card at any time from your Novalya workspace, including during the trial.

What happens at the end of the 14 days


If you do nothing


At the end of the trial the subscription becomes active and the saved card is charged for your plan. The date of that first payment becomes your renewal date for the periods that follow.


If the payment fails


If the card is declined at the end of the trial, the subscription is not activated and a retry is triggered. What to do and what happens next are covered here:

Stopping before the trial ends


Nothing is charged


If you cancel before the 14 days are up, no payment is taken. You keep access until the trial end date.


See the article: How to cancel my Novalya subscription?


Cancel before the trial end date, not on the day itself: once the payment has been triggered, a period that has started is not refunded.



Promotions and special offers: no trial period


What this changes for you


Some subscriptions are sold without a trial period. That is the case for offers taken through a promotion, a webinar or a special offer: billing starts immediately at sign-up, not after 14 days.


How to tell which case you are in:

  • You signed up from the website, choosing a plan from the public pricing grid: you have the 14-day trial
  • You subscribed through a promotional link, an offer presented in a webinar, or a negotiated offer: billing started straight away


If in doubt, the date of your first payment is shown on your first invoice, in your Novalya workspace.



Already a customer?


Nothing changes for you


The trial period only concerns new subscriptions. Your plan, your price and your quotas are unchanged, and there is nothing for you to do.
