Pricing

The CV builder that
doesn't trap you.

No subscription. PRO is $19 once — lifetime. 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 PDF downloads, much higher daily AI limits, 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.
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.
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.
PRO has generous daily fair-use limits — 300 AI chat requests, 80 ATS scans, and 80 cover letters per day, resetting every 24 hours. That's roughly 12× the Free tier, and normal job-search use never comes close. There are no credit packs to buy and nothing that expires; the caps exist only to keep the one-time $19 price sustainable. Full details are in our Terms of Service.
PRO Lifetime checkout is handled by Freemius, our merchant of record — you can pay with any major credit or debit card, or with PayPal. Freemius handles VAT/sales tax and invoicing automatically.
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.
