Common questions
Can I switch plans at any time?
Yes. Upgrade or downgrade at any point. When upgrading, you get immediate access to new features. When downgrading, your current billing cycle continues and changes apply at renewal.
Is there a free trial?
All paid plans include a 14-day free trial with full feature access. Cancel any time during the trial at no cost.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) and can arrange invoicing for annual Business and Enterprise plans.
What happens when I hit my job posting limit?
You'll see a prompt to upgrade or buy a posting credit. Your existing jobs stay active — you just can't create new ones until you upgrade or close an existing posting.
Do job seekers have to pay?
No. NewLocal is completely free for job seekers — searching, applying, saving jobs, the CV builder, and your profile all cost nothing. Employers fund the platform.
What's the difference between Pro and Business?
Pro gives you candidate access and AI match scores — great for focused hiring. Business adds AI-powered candidate recommendations, advanced analytics, unlimited jobs, team seats, and API access — built for scaling teams.
