# Billing and plans: Scout Buddy, Pro, and Scale

> Compare LeadScout's per-seat plans, understand what's included in each tier, manage your subscription, and control property lookup costs.

LeadScout bills per seat on a monthly or annual cycle. Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial — no credit card required. When your trial ends you choose a plan, enter payment details, and your team keeps going without interruption. Only the account **owner** can view and manage billing. Access your billing settings from **Settings → Billing**.

<Note>
  Only account **owners** can access billing settings, upgrade or downgrade plans, and manage payment information.
