We have now added the option for users to switch and change between different levels of membership “within” their trial period.

So if you were considering trying out Extreme Member simply sign up for any one of the trials and anytime within the 30-day trial period and feel free to try out any of the different levels of membership and the different features.

Whatever level your account is on at the end of your 30-day trial is the amount you will be billed. e.g. if you start with the Basic Level ($49/mo) but in your $2.95 trial you downgrade it to the Starter Level ($19/mo) and you stay on that level when your 30 day trial ends you will be billed at only $19/mo thereafter.
