PRING HelpFree trial (7 days): how it works and what happens at expiry
The free trial lasts 7 days from the moment you sign up at pring.tech. When 3 days or fewer remain, the settings screen and the record view show "Your free trial has N days left". At expiry exports stop, but your templates and settings are kept. There is one trial per kintone domain. To continue, choose a plan on the Plans & pricing tab. Nothing is charged automatically.
Steps
1. Sign up for the free trial at pring.tech
Send the sign-up form on the product site with your company name, email address and kintone subdomain. The trial starts with this sign-up. A kintone environment that has not signed up cannot export, even with the plugin installed.
2. Install the plugin and connect it
Follow the guide on the sign-up completion screen to import the plugin into kintone and enable it on the app. Then connect it on the Connection tab of the settings screen. The steps are on the install page and the connection page.
3. Check the days left
Open the Plans & pricing tab of the settings screen. "Your current contract" shows "Free trial" and "N days left (until M/D)". The days left are rounded up.
4. Run through a realistic workflow
Register one template, export a real record as a PDF and check the layout and fonts. If you plan to use bulk output, list output or email, try those too. Output during the trial is free of charge.
5. Estimate on the Plans & pricing tab
The pages you have output so far are projected to a month and filled into "Pages per month". Add the number of schedules and Monthly or Yearly, and the lowest-priced plan is marked.
6. Choose a plan before the trial ends
On the plan you want, press "Sign up for this plan" and complete the card checkout page. You can sign up before or after the trial ends. After you sign up, you keep using PRING as it is.

What to check first during the trial
- Is it connected? Check that the Connection tab shows it is connected and that the export buttons appear on the record view (Connection tab).
- Do your documents come out as expected? Export a real record as a PDF and check the layout, fonts, seals and formulas (Register a template).
- Do you have the features you need? Try each one you will use at work once: bulk output, list output, email, Word templates and so on.
- How many pages a month? The Plans & pricing tab projects a monthly figure from your usage so far. It counts pages the same way as Usage limits.
When the trial ends
- Open the Plans & pricing tab of the settings screen. Administrators can also jump there from “Choose a plan” in the export dialog or the record view.
- Enter pages per month, number of schedules and Monthly or Yearly, then pick a plan.
- Press “Sign up for this plan” and finish on the card checkout page.
A user who sees “The trial period has ended” and is not an administrator should tell their administrator, as the message says. The full steps are in Plans and pricing.

Frequently asked questions
When does the free trial start and how long is it?
It lasts 7 days from the moment you sign up at pring.tech. It does not start when you install the plugin or when you first export.
Where do I see the days left?
When 3 days or fewer remain, the top of the settings screen shows "Your free trial has N days left" with a "Choose a plan" button. The record view also shows "Your PRING free trial has N days left" next to the export buttons. Administrators get a "Choose a plan" link; other users see "Please tell your administrator." The "Your current contract" box on the Plans & pricing tab shows the days left at any time during the trial.
What happens when the trial ends?
New exports stop. The export dialog (single, bulk, list and email) shows "The trial period has ended. Choose a plan to keep using PRING", and the record view can show the same message in place of the buttons. Administrators get a "Choose a plan" link; other users see "Please tell your administrator." There is no grace period. Your registered templates, settings and kintone data are not deleted.
Can I start another free trial on the same domain?
No. There is one free trial per kintone domain. Signing up again after expiry, or with a different email address, does not start a new trial for the same domain. To keep using PRING, choose a plan.
Will I be charged automatically when the trial ends?
No. Even if you pick a paid plan on the sign-up form, signing up alone does not make the contract paid. It becomes paid only when you complete the card checkout from the Plans & pricing tab.
Can the trial be extended?
If you have a good reason, please ask support. Use "Contact support" on the Help tab of the settings screen and include your kintone subdomain.
Are any features unavailable during the trial?
Scheduled output is available only when it is included in the plan, so it cannot be used during the trial. Other output (single, bulk, list, email and so on) works the same during the trial.
