How the TopDawg 7-Day Free Trial Works

What You’ll Learn in This Video

This video explains how TopDawg’s 7-day free trial works for retailers, including how to activate a trial, connect a store or marketplace integration, use key Business Plan features, place product orders, and avoid membership charges by downgrading before the trial ends.

1. How to Start Your TopDawg Free Trial

When you first sign up for TopDawg, your account begins in the free Start-Up Plan with a custom integration that acts as your starter store. From there, you can explore the platform, review supported marketplaces and platforms, and connect an eligible integration. Once your integration is successfully connected, you can activate a 7-day free trial for that specific store or marketplace connection.

2. How Multiple Free Trials Work

TopDawg’s 7-day free trial is tied to each successfully connected integration. This means a retailer may be able to start separate free trials for different stores or supported platform connections within the same TopDawg retailer account. Each trial gives you the opportunity to test TopDawg’s automation tools for that specific integration before committing to a paid membership.

3. Why a Payment Method Is Required

A payment method is required before activating the 7-day free trial. TopDawg uses the payment method to enable product purchases and shipping during the trial period, but no membership fee is charged during the 7 days. If you place product orders during the trial, those product and shipping costs are billed when the orders are placed.

4. What Features Are Included During the Trial

During the 7-day free trial, retailers can browse TopDawg’s catalog of over 500,000 U.S.-based wholesale dropshipping products and test core automation features. Trial members can add products to a connected store, customize pricing, sync products, access real-time inventory updates, review shipping quotes, test order workflows, and see how tracking updates work.

5. What Is Not Included in the Free Trial

CSV product spreadsheet downloads are not available during the 7-day free trial. Retailers who need CSV downloads can access them after moving to a qualifying paid plan, where downloads are available from the favorites list. The free trial is designed primarily to let retailers test connected-store automation, product syncing, inventory updates, shipping tools, and order workflows.

6. What Happens When the Trial Ends

At the end of the 7-day free trial, the account automatically converts to the Business Monthly Plan unless the retailer downgrades before the trial period ends. Retailers who want to avoid membership charges should downgrade before the trial expires. If no downgrade is made, the payment method on file will be used for the Business Monthly Plan once the trial ends.

7. Why the Free Trial Helps Retailers Evaluate TopDawg

The TopDawg free trial gives retailers a practical way to test the platform before choosing a paid membership. Instead of only browsing products, retailers can experience how product syncing, pricing customization, real-time inventory, shipping quotes, order workflows, and tracking updates help simplify the dropshipping process. This makes it easier to decide whether TopDawg is the right platform for building or scaling a dropshipping business.
