Hi,

I signed up for 1$ for 3 months trail on Shopify as Dropshipping store. But after on the second month they are charging me for 40$, where is the 3 Months trail for 1$ Gone.

Hello, @Phonepsyc !

During this free trial period, did you make any changes to your store, such as selecting a plan?

Have you already been charged, or did you just see the bill come up in your Settings > Billing?

Have a look there and see if that bill has a date on it, as it might have just come through already for the future when you should be charged in another month by the end of the trial.

Also, great to hear that you’re taking to first steps with your dropshipping business! How is it going so far?
