How Much Does Trend Micro Cost?
These are the current introductory prices for a one-year subscription of Trend Micro protection:
Product | Regular Price | Introductory Price |
Maximum Security | $89.95 | $39.95 |
Internet Security | $79.95 | $39.95 |
Antivirus+ Security | $39.95 | $19.95 |
For an additional $20, you can upgrade to the Software + Service Plan. While Maximum Security offers all the security benefits plus the support you need to get your product going, the Service Plan offers additional perks:
- Virus and spyware removal
- Security health check service
- Direct access to support specialist
- 24/7 emergency assistance and support
- Automatic priority access to support
- Remote control support
Those prices apply for your first term. When your subscription renews automatically, it will do so at whatever the price is for the subscription at that time, which will probably be more expensive than your introductory offer. That's why it's important to manage your subscriptions carefully and cancel them before your next billing if you realize you no longer need the service.
How to Avoid Automatic Renewal on Free Trials With a DoNotPay Virtual Credit Card
Fortunately, without entering your credit card information. Many subscription services don't do that. Instead, they ask you to provide payment info so they can automatically charge you for your first subscription term when your trial is over.
This is convenient if you want to continue with the service. Of course, the companies want you to enjoy the product and continue—but if you don't enjoy the product, they're simply hoping you'll forget to cancel so they can charge you anyway.
Don't risk accidentally paying for a service you don't want. Instead, enjoy your free trials without hassle by using DoNotPay. Our free virtual credit cards are an easy, stress-free way to try a variety of services without commitment until you can be sure you love them before you commit. This is how it works:
- DoNotPay generates a random credit card number. Use this number when you sign up for a free trial.
- There is no money or account associated with the card number, so it cannot be charged. Instead, when your trial is over, you'll be automatically unsubscribed. That way, you don't have to keep track of when you signed up and when your trial ends.
