Short answer: DealMachine does not have a time-limited free trial. Instead, you can explore DealMachine for free — no credit card, no expiration — and choose a paid plan whenever you're ready.
How the free option works
Sign up at dealmachine.com and start using DealMachine right away — no card required. You can browse properties and owner profiles and run real property and people searches to see how everything works. Exploring and searching never use data credits, so you are never charged for looking around. Paid features stay visible in the menu but remain locked until you pick a plan, and search results are blurred or limited until you upgrade.
Is there a 7-day trial or free marketing credits?
No. DealMachine's older 7-day free trial and the automatic "$5 in marketing credits" for signing up are no longer offered. There is no countdown and no starter credit — you simply explore for free for as long as you like and upgrade when you are ready. If you see that older offer mentioned anywhere, it is from a previous model and no longer applies.
When do I need a paid plan?
You will choose a plan when you want to reveal contact info (phone numbers and emails), export records, or use Lists, Driving for Dollars, and Direct Mail at full capacity. Plans start at $99/user/month (Basic), with Pro at $149/user/month and Scale for bulk-data teams; annual billing saves 17%. See current pricing at dealmachine.com/pricing.
