Mangomint free trial: No credit card, no time limit

(Updated August 2026) Mangomint’s trial experience is free, doesn’t have a time limit, and allows you to fully experience the software before committing to anything.

I’ve talked to a lot of salon and spa owners who’ve been locked into contracts, surprised with outrageously high onboarding fees (sometimes $495!), or rushed through setup without any time to decide if they even like the platform. So when we redesigned our free trial in August 2026, we wanted salon and spa owners to feel 100% confident that Mangomint was the right choice for their business before they paid us anything.

As of August 1, 2026, Mangomint is free until you launch. You can build out your entire account, from services to sample appointments, before paying us a single dollar. No credit card required and no contracts. Ever.

Here’s how it works, what you can expect, and what it costs when you’re ready to launch.

How can I try Mangomint for free?

You can start Mangomint for free on our website. We create a fully customized trial experience for you based on the information you give us during set up.

How long is Mangomint’s free trial?

Generally, most businesses launch in less than two weeks.

You can add your business information, logo, and brand colors, build your service menu, book sample appointments on the calendar, and test core features like online booking, memberships and packages, payments, and Automated Flows.
