Pricing

The CV builder that
doesn't trap you.

PRO is $19 a month, or $108 for the year. Cancel in one click — and if you would rather never think about it again, Lifetime is one payment that never renews.

The promise

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

Building your CV stays free.
Always.

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. PRO Lifetime is a single payment of $199 — $149 while founder seats last — and it never renews. If you would rather not pay that up front, PRO is $19 a month or $108 a year and cancels in one click.
If you bought PRO Lifetime, you have it 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 price sustainable. Full details are in our Terms of Service.
Any major credit or debit card — Visa, Mastercard or Amex. Checkout is hosted by our payment provider, which handles VAT/sales tax and emails your invoice. Your card details never reach FreeCV.org.
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.
