CRMown Free
CRMown Free is a personal, one-seat CRM for the people you meet — the account behind a CRMown Tap card. It has no AI and only uses things that cost nothing per use: your own Gmail or Outlook for email, your calendar, tasks and follow-ups. Anything Free doesn't include opens an upgrade sheet offering the $14 30-day trial.
Steps
- Claiming a Tap card creates a CRMown Free account automatically — set your password from the link in the card's welcome email (valid 7 days; after that, use "Forgot password" on the sign-in page).
- Free includes: up to 1,000 contacts, 1 pipeline with 4 stages, 50 open tasks, 10 tags, 25 MB of files, 1 seat, and CSV export any time.
- Not included on Free: CRMown AI (including with your own AI key), texting/WhatsApp/social messages, phone numbers, teammates, automations, suites, booking pages and video meetings. Trying to use one opens the upgrade sheet instead of an error.
- To upgrade, open the sheet (or Settings > Billing, where a "You're on CRMown Free" banner appears) and click "Start 30-day trial — $14". Everything on your Free account carries over.
- If a trial ends without upgrading, the account moves to CRMown Free — nothing is locked or deleted. Free is one seat, so teammates are paused (not removed) and come back automatically when you upgrade.
Good to know
- Each account gets one $14 trial. If you already had one, Settings > Billing asks you to pick a plan instead.
- Over a limit after a trial ends? Nothing is removed — you can keep viewing and editing everything; you just can't add more past the Free limit until you upgrade.
Troubleshooting
An upgrade sheet opens when I try to add a contact, task, pipeline stage or tag
You reached a CRMown Free limit (1,000 contacts, 50 open tasks, 4 stages, 10 tags, 1 pipeline, 25 MB of files).
Fix: Remove or complete something to make room, or start the $14 30-day trial from the sheet.
CRMown AI buttons open an upgrade sheet
CRMown Free has no AI, even with your own AI key.
Fix: Start the 30-day trial to use CRMown AI.
The "Set your password" link from my Tap card email doesn't work
The link is valid for 7 days, and only once.
Fix: Use "Forgot password" on the sign-in page with the email you claimed the card with.
A teammate can't log in after our trial ended
The workspace moved to CRMown Free, which has one seat, so teammates were paused.
Fix: The owner upgrades in Settings > Billing; paused teammates are restored automatically.
