Pricing

The CV builder that
doesn't trap you.

One price. No surprise renewals. No $30 charge appearing on your card next month.

The promise

Most CV builders charge $25–30/month after a $2.95 trial that “forgets” to remind you.

We charge $19, once.
Forever.

Frequently Asked Questions

Simple pricing deserves simple answers.

Yes. The Free plan never expires. Build, edit, and download PDFs forever without paying anything. PRO is an optional upgrade if you want unlimited downloads, unlimited AI, all templates, AI headshots, and the full portfolio.
Yes. $19 one-time. You're charged once. You own it forever. No monthly billing, no annual auto-renewal, no surprise charge appearing on your card. We don't even know how to charge you twice.
If you bought PRO Lifetime at $19, you have PRO Lifetime forever — even if we raise the price to $49 or $99 later. Your one purchase covers all future versions and features.
PRO Lifetime ($19 once) unlocks the full builder and your livelink.cv/yourname portfolio. BRAND ($99/year, one-time) adds a custom domain (e.g. johndoe.com), email forwarding at that domain, and hosts your CV at the custom domain. They're separate products — buy PRO if you want the builder, buy BRAND if you also want a personal domain.
Because we'd rather email you in 11 months saying 'your domain renews next month, want to extend?' than auto-charge your card and pretend it was your idea. The domain registration is genuinely 1 year — when it's up, you decide whether to keep it.
Full refund within 24 hours if you haven't downloaded a PDF or DOCX. After download, no refund — you have received what you paid for. Email refund@freecv.org with your order number.
Full refund within 7 days, provided the domain hasn't been registered with the registrar (typically within 24 hours of checkout). Once the domain is registered in your name, no refund — the registration fee is non-recoverable.
No. Free users get a portfolio at livelink.cv/yourname with 3 themes. PRO unlocks 32 more themes, analytics, and the ability to use a custom CV template on the portfolio.
No daily limits, no credit caps, no 'you've used your free AI today.' Build fifty CVs. Run ATS checks forty times. Generate unlimited cover letters. Competitors gate AI behind 100 credits/month. We don't.
Payments are processed by Creem.io. We accept Visa, Mastercard, Amex, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
Yes. All previous subscribers have been grandfathered to PRO Lifetime — you keep PRO forever, with no further charges. Thanks for being one of the people who got us here.
