# Pricing and the free month > Every feature is free for a month. Then Mariner is US$29.99 a year, or US$79.99 once — the same app either way. Without either, it turns read-only and nothing is deleted. ## One app, two ways to pay There is no free tier and no feature split. Whatever you pay with, you get all of Mariner: - **Yearly — US$29.99 a year.** Starts with a free month. - **Lifetime — US$79.99 once.** No renewal, nothing to cancel. The App Store shows your local price before you confirm. Both are billed to your Apple Account by Apple; there is no Mariner account and we never see your card. ## The free month The first time you open Mariner it offers the free month. Pressing **Try Mariner Pro free for a month** opens the App Store sheet for the yearly plan with the first month at US$0 — confirm it with Touch ID or your password and every feature is unlocked on the spot. - It is **one free month per Apple Account**. If yours already used it, the paywall offers the plans without it. - The toolbar shows **Pro until** and the date the month ends; the chip turns amber in the last three days. - **Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the month ends, the first year (US$29.99) is charged when it does.** Cancel in **App Store → your name → Subscriptions**: nothing is charged, and Mariner stays unlocked until the month is over. - Not ready yet? **Look around first** closes the offer and opens the app read-only; the offer stays in the toolbar and in the banner at the top. ## What is included Everything, on either plan: | | | |---|---| | Requests, collections, folders, workspaces, [environments](/docs/environments) | Unlimited | | Body editors, saved [body variants](/docs/collections), response viewer, timings, cookies | All | | [Auth](/docs/auth) | Basic, Bearer, API key, OAuth 2 browser sign-in and client credentials | | [Import](/docs/import) | cURL, Postman, Insomnia, OpenAPI / Swagger | | Export | `.mariner` package, Postman, cURL, Swift / Go / Python / JavaScript snippets, [HTML API docs](/docs/collections) | | [Contracts](/docs/contracts), [request chaining](/docs/variables), the [collection runner](/docs/runner) | ✓ | | Response → types (Swift, TypeScript, Go) | ✓ | | [iCloud sync](/docs/system#icloud-sync) and the [MCP server](/docs/mcp) | ✓ | ## Without a subscription: read-only If the free month ends without a subscription — or a subscription lapses — **nothing is deleted and nothing is held hostage**. Mariner turns read-only: - Every collection, environment and request stays on your Mac, and you can open and read all of it. - **Exporting keeps working**: a `.mariner` package, a Postman collection, a request as cURL. - Editing, creating, importing and sending wait until you subscribe. A banner at the top says so, and trying any of them opens the plans. - iCloud sync stops mirroring new changes, and never deletes a record on either side. Subscribe again, or buy lifetime, and everything is editable exactly where you left it. ## Billing and cancelling - The yearly plan **renews automatically** — including at the end of the free month — unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends. - Cancel any time in **App Store → your name → Subscriptions**. Mariner stays unlocked until the period you already have runs out. - **Lifetime does not cancel the yearly plan for you.** It sits outside the subscription, so if you move from yearly to lifetime, cancel the yearly plan in the same screen. Mariner warns you about this before the purchase, and shows a **Cancel yearly plan** reminder afterwards while the subscription is still set to renew. - **Family Sharing** is on for both: one purchase covers your family group. - Refunds go through Apple, at [reportaproblem.apple.com](https://reportaproblem.apple.com). ## Restoring on another Mac Your purchase follows your Apple Account, not the machine. Install Mariner from the Mac App Store, open the plans from the toolbar and press **Restore Purchase**. If it comes back empty, check the Mac is signed in to the Apple Account that bought it — and if it still is, [write to us](/support). --- Source: https://marinerhttp.dev/docs/free-and-pro · Mariner docs
