# Billing

> Manage your Ito subscription, seats, and payment details.

Ito offers a free trial followed by a Pro plan billed through Stripe. No credit card is required to start your free trial.

## Free trial

When you complete onboarding, your free trial begins automatically. During the trial:

* Ito runs automated QA on every pull request.
* All features are available, including video recordings, code analysis, and team management.
* No payment information is required.

Your trial end date is shown in **Settings → Plan & Billing**.

## Pro plan

After your trial ends, you need a Pro plan to continue using Ito. The Pro plan is seat-based — you pay for the number of team members who need dashboard access.

* **Monthly billing** — charged each month
* **Yearly billing** — charged annually (saves compared to monthly)

<Tip>
  Choose yearly billing for better value if you plan to use Ito long-term.
