free trial — without the lock-in

The steps
How to start it
- 1
Start the free trial directly from QuickBooks's pricing page.
- 2
Trials usually require a credit card and auto-convert to paid unless cancelled.
- 3
Use the trial to import a real dataset — empty trials never tell you the truth.
Watch out
Trial gotchas
- Set a calendar reminder 24h before the trial ends — auto-billing is the default.
- Some trials unlock every feature; some only unlock the entry-level tier. Check before you commit.
- Cancelling mid-trial sometimes ends access immediately, not at trial end.
