Also known as: trial account
A short evaluation period, commonly 7 to 14 days or a fixed 10 to 50 GB, offered so a prospective subscriber can measure real speed and completion before paying. Trials normally require card details and convert to a paid plan unless canceled. Because trial accounts often run at reduced connections or a lower speed tier, results can understate what a paid account delivers.
