How to start an ApprovalMax trial

Whether you’re completely new to ApprovalMax or an existing user looking to test advanced features, there’s a trial option designed for your needs.

ApprovalMax offers three main ways to explore the platform:

1. Starting a trial as a new user

When you first sign up for ApprovalMax, you automatically begin with a free trial:

Our research shows that the ApprovalMax configuration typically takes less than 24 hours, so a 14-day trial should be long enough for most cases.

During the trial:

  • You have access to all the features in our Premium feature plan to see how they fit your business

  • You can start your trial immediately without providing any credit card or billing details

  • You don't have to use your live accounting data right away. You can connect to a Xero demo company to explore predefined workflows and sample data without affecting your real records

Once the trial ends, or at any time during it, you can purchase a subscription to continue using ApprovalMax and keep all your settings and workflows intact.

2. All Features trial for existing users

If you already have a paid Standard or Advanced feature plan, you can start a 14-day All Features trial to explore Premium plan features.

To start a trial upgrade:

  • Click on your Avatar icon in the top right-hand corner and select Billing & Subscriptions from the dropdown menu:

  • Navigate to the Organisations tab and click on the Try all features button:

  • Choose your Organisation and click on Try all features for 14 days:

  • Once activated, an AFT badge will appear next to your plan name in the Organisations list. You can hover over it to check when your trial expires:

3. Trial for a newly added Organisation

When you add a new Organisation to an existing ApprovalMax account, it automatically starts as a 3-day free trial. ​

You can add a new trial Organisation in two ways:

  • Open the Organisation switcher in the left-hand navigation, scroll to the bottom and click on +Add an Organisation:

  • Go to the Organisations tab under Billing & Subscriptions and click on the + Add Organisation button:

  • Once connected, the new Organisation starts under a Trial plan where all ApprovalMax features are available for 3 days:

At the end of the 3 days, you’ll need to purchase a subscription for that Organisation to maintain access. If you need more than three days, you can contact our Sales team to request a trial extension.
