While it might seem strange to require a credit card for a free trial, it's an important way for us to keep our content secure -- and out of the wrong hands!

Because our free trial includes unlimited access to ALL of our courses, paths and learning resources, we need to take some steps to protect the content that we've worked so hard to build.

Requiring a valid credit card to access the platform allows us to verify your identity, filter out illegitimate users, and prevent nasty stuff like spam, bots, and pirates (the bad kind, not the fun kind).

If you don't feel comfortable sharing your credit card details, here are a few things to keep in mind:

1) We use a best-in-class payment processing service (Stripe) to handle all transactions, so we never store (or even see) your credit card details (learn more here).

2) You can easily cancel your subscription with the click of a button before the end of your free trial, and you'll never be charged a dime.

3) We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If you aren't happy, contact us and we'll make it right, no questions asked.

4) We're proud to have served more than 500,000 students in 150+ countries, while maintaining a 97% student satisfaction rating. You simply can't do that without a reputation built on trust and quality.
