# Plan & Billing

Shortcut is **one plan with everything included**, priced per crew. There are no per-user seats (invite unlimited users) and no per-transaction fees. Open it from the **settings cog → Billing & Payments → Plan & Billing**.

## Pricing

|              | Monthly    | Annual (save 20%)                   |
| ------------ | ---------- | ----------------------------------- |
| **Per crew** | $180/month | $144/month, billed $1,728/crew/year |

A **crew** is a team you dispatch (set up in [Workforce](/readme/configuration/workforce-users-+-roles-+-teams.md)). Add or remove crews any time — your subscription adjusts.

## Free trial

Every new account gets a **14-day free trial** — no credit card required. You'll see a trial countdown in the app near the end of the trial.
