Yes, ProfitTree is free, and the free plan never expires. The $0 tier gives you 200 Rupert AI credits a week, a basic Product and Shop Finder, basic competitor tracking, 7 days of profit history, one Etsy shop, and the Printify and Printful cost sync. What it does not give you is a free trial of a paid tier.
ProfitTree's help center explains why in one line: there is no trial period because the freemium plan is available indefinitely (refund and cancellation policy, March 2026). The free plan is the trial. The only question left is whether 7 days of profit history proves the tool for your shop.
- Testing profit tracking: open the free account, connect one shop, upload costs, read a full week of true profit.
- Need longer history: Starter keeps 90 days for $5.99 a month billed annually.
- Hunting a trial code: none exists. The two real discounts are 40% off annual billing and a $67 lifetime offer.

What ProfitTree's Free Plan Actually Includes
The free plan is a working account, not a demo. It connects one Etsy shop, syncs your Etsy ledger about every 12 hours, keeps the last 7 days of profit history, and refills 200 AI credits every week. Paid tiers mostly widen the data windows and add reports rather than adding new tools.
What you get | Free ($0) | Starter ($5.99 a month billed annually) |
|---|---|---|
Rupert AI credits | 200 a week | 350 a week |
Product and Shop Finder | Basic | Adds revenue, sales, and deeper product insights |
Competitor tracking | Basic | 7-day competitor metrics |
Profit history | Last 7 days | 90 days |
Product and listing reports | Not included | Included |
Etsy shops | One | One, plus a paid one-time add-on for more |
Printify and Printful cost sync | Included | Included |
Advertisement insights | Included | Included |
Report date ranges | Presets only | Presets only (custom ranges are Pro only) |
Read the word basic closely, because it decides what you see. The pricing page puts revenue and sales figures for products and shops on Starter, then demand, visibility scores, and conversion rates on Growth. Those are the same columns the help center lists inside Product Finder, so free searches show you listings without the numbers that rank them.
Two limits hit every plan, free included. Data refreshes about every 12 hours with no manual refresh button, so this morning's sale can wait until tonight. Custom date ranges in Reports are Pro only (March 2026 help article), and everyone else, lifetime buyers included, picks from Today, Yesterday, Last 7 days, Month to date, or Last 30 days.
Growth at $17.99 a month billed annually widens competitor metrics to 30 days and history to a year. Pro at $29.99 opens all-time data and unlimited shops. The full list of ProfitTree paid plans shows what each step buys.

Why There Is No ProfitTree Free Trial
ProfitTree dropped the trial because the free tier replaced it. The March 2026 refund and cancellation policy states there is no trial period because the freemium plan is available indefinitely, and repeats that the free plan carries no time limits. Sponsor reads from July 2024 that promised a 7-day trial are out of date.
You will still meet 30-day offers in the wild. One YouTube livestream still links to "Try it for 30 Days FREE", and a January 2025 interview post pushes a one-month-free link. Neither the pricing page nor the help center documents any trial, so expect the standard free plan.
That makes the refund rules matter more than usual. Monthly payments are non-refundable with no grace period, annual plans get 48 hours, and the ProfitTree lifetime deal carries a 5-day window. Prove the tool on free first, because the policy after payment is strict.
The Three Things ProfitTree Gives Away Free
Three separate ProfitTree products cost nothing, and search results blur them into one. The web app has a permanent free tier. The Chrome extension is a free download that needs a ProfitTree login. The SKU Generator needs no account at all. None of the three is a timed trial, and none of them expires.
- The free web app. One shop, 7 days of profit history, 200 AI credits a week, basic finder and basic competitor tracking.
- The free Chrome extension. Etsy Radar overlays, the ad spend exporter, and the price calculator. The ProfitTree extension also holds the only Etsy Ads sync button, and synced ad data starts at yesterday, never today.
- The free SKU Generator. A standalone page at profittree.io/sku-generator with no login and no shop connection.
What the "Free Trial Code" and "Free Trial Hack" Searches Really Find
Google suggests "profittree free trial code" and "profittree free trial hack" because people type them, not because either one exists. The vendor publishes no promo codes at all. Paid features open at a Paddle checkout, so no setting inside the app switches them on. Here is what each search really turns up.
What people search for | What is actually there |
|---|---|
ProfitTree free trial code | No code exists. The free plan needs none, and none opens a paid tier. |
ProfitTree free trial hack | Nothing to hack. Paid tiers open at checkout, not with a hidden switch. |
Free tier with "100 API calls per day" (a Reddit claim) | Not published anywhere. The only free meter is 200 AI credits a week. |
TREE10, KEEP20, SAVE50 on coupon sites | Unverified. TREE10 came from a July 2024 podcast read and none of them touches the free plan. |
"40% off code" | Not a code. It is the standing discount for paying annually on any paid tier. |
The ProfitTree discount page works through each of those codes and the two discounts that do exist. Short version: start free, and pay annually if you ever upgrade.
How to Start on the Free Plan Without a Card
Signing up asks for no payment details, because the Paddle checkout only appears once you pick a paid plan. The vendor's own setup list runs four steps: create the account, connect Etsy, sync product costs, start tracking. Then give the first ledger sync up to 12 hours before you judge any number on the dashboard.
- Open profittree.io and click Get Started for Free, or Choose Plan under the Free column.
- Create the account with the email you want tied to the shop.
- Connect your Etsy shop through Etsy's own authorization screen. Free covers one shop.
- Load product costs: upload the Bulk Product Cost Template, or connect Printify or Printful for a one-click sync.
- If you advertise, install the free extension, log into the same Etsy account in Chrome, then hit Sync inside it.
Steps 4 and 5 hide more work than they look, mostly product costs and SKUs. My walkthrough of how to use ProfitTree covers them.
Is the Free Plan Enough? Run the 7-Day Test
Seven days of history is the free plan's real ceiling, so spend exactly seven days deciding. In one week you can reconcile ProfitTree's net sales, fees, and ad spend against your Etsy payment account, then judge whether 90 days of history is worth $5.99 a month. This is the test I would run.
- Day 1: connect the shop and load your costs. The first sync lands within about 12 hours.
- Day 2: match net sales, the 6.5% transaction fee, and payment processing against your Etsy payment account. Gaps usually trace to currency or missing costs.
- Days 3 to 5: run Product Finder on a keyword you already sell, and see whether the basic columns tell you anything new.
- Day 6: if you advertise, sync the extension and read TACoS. Today's spend is never there.
- Day 7: the oldest day rolls off. Stay free or upgrade, knowing plan changes apply immediately and are prorated.

My complete ProfitTree review scores the tool 4.0 out of 5, and the free plan carries a lot of that score. After the week, the call usually lands in one of three places.
- Stay free if: one shop, weekly margin checks, and last week's fees and ad spend netted per listing cover you.
- Upgrade to Starter if: you want 90 days of history, product and listing reports, and 7-day competitor metrics for $5.99 a month.
- Skip it for now if: you have no orders yet. Nothing to track, so price listings with our no-login Etsy fee calculator instead.
Free Plans on Other Etsy Tools (and Who Still Runs a Real Trial)
Etsy tools have mostly swapped trials for permanent free tiers, and each one caps something different. ProfitTree caps history at 7 days. EverBee hides sales and revenue figures. eRank allows 5 keyword lookups a day. Only Sale Samurai and Marmalead still run a timed trial, at 3 days and 14 days.
Tool | Timed free trial | Free plan limits | Cheapest paid step |
|---|---|---|---|
ProfitTree | None | 7-day profit history, basic finder, one shop, 200 AI credits a week | $5.99 a month billed annually |
EverBee | None | Hobby hides sales and revenue data, 10 keyword results, 5 tracked shops | $19.99 a month billed annually |
eRank | None | 5 keyword lookups a day, 1 shop, 50 listings, 5 audits a day | $5.50 a month billed annually |
Alura | None | 5 searches a day per tool, 10 listings optimized, limited databases | $7.99 a month billed annually |
Sale Samurai | 3 days, no card | 20 keyword searches a month, 10 listings analyzed | $16.65 a month billed annually |
Marmalead | 14 days | No free plan at all | $16 a month billed annually |
Those free tiers split by job. ProfitTree's $0 plan is the only one that nets Etsy fees and ad spend against your own orders, because it reads your ledger instead of estimating. For discovery, the EverBee free plan searches wider, though it hides the sales figures you want most. My list of free ProfitTree alternatives scores each option by what its $0 tier does.
Verdict: The Free Plan Is the Trial
ProfitTree is free in the way that counts: no card, no countdown, one shop, and 7 days of true profit history. That is enough to prove or kill the tool for your shop inside a week. There is no trial to hunt down, no code to paste, and nothing to hack. If the week convinces you, Starter at $5.99 a month billed annually is the honest next step.
