SIMPLE, FLEXIBLE PRICING
A monthly choice, not a long-term commitment.
Plus is $29 per month, per profile, with no annual agreement. You can cancel anytime before your next renewal, and your Plus features will remain available through the end of your paid billing period. After that, your profile automatically returns to Free.
No refunds or credits for unused time, except where required by law or approved by our team. You can upgrade again later.
Am I committing to a year?
No. Plus is billed monthly, per profile, and renews automatically until you cancel. There is no annual agreement or long-term commitment.
How do I cancel, and when does it take effect?
You can cancel anytime from the Plan and Billing section of your account. Just cancel before your next renewal to avoid another charge. You’ll keep your Plus features through the end of your paid billing period, then your profile automatically returns to Free.
Can I turn Plus back on later?
Absolutely. You can upgrade again whenever you’re ready. Any Plus information you’ve already entered is saved privately while you’re on Free, so you won’t have to start over. A new subscription begins when you upgrade again.
Are unused days refunded?
There are no refunds or credits for unused subscription time, except where required by law or approved by our team. Canceling stops future renewals; it does not automatically issue a refund.
Can I prepare my Plus profile before paying?
Yes. You can add information and preview the Plus features in your account before upgrading. Those details stay private until you activate Plus.
Does Plus include a higher search ranking or Verified Profile badge?
No. Free, Plus and Verified Profiles follow the same search ranking rules. Payment and verification status do not improve organic placement, even when relevance is tied. Plus gives you more ways to showcase your business, without guaranteeing leads or results. The Verified Profile badge is tied to a separate qualifying Optimize5 Online Brand Optimization service.
I already work with Optimize5. Do I need to pay for Plus?
Not necessarily. Plus benefits are already included with qualifying active Optimize5 Online Brand Optimization services. Check your account before purchasing, since other Optimize5 services don’t automatically include Plus.
Why does Optimize5 appear when I sign in or pay?
Local Top Experts is a product of Optimize5, which manages your account and billing. Your public profile appears on Local Top Experts, and purchasing Plus won’t change any other Optimize5 services you have.
A richer profile is an opportunity to communicate more, not a promise of traffic, leads, or results. Learn how profiles are verified or read our Terms of Use.
