Hootsuite — 1 Month Free (Adobe-Members Method) ![]()
Hootsuite (the big social-media scheduler — plan posts, publish everywhere, track what works) normally runs ~$99/mo. This partner link opens a free Standard-plan trial through Adobe’s perks portal — and per Hootsuite’s own policy the trial takes no credit card and won’t auto-charge, so it’s a clean grab. ![]()

Official proof it’s card-free + no auto-charge → https://www.hootsuite.com/plans
💳 If your signup DOES ask for a card — make sure it can never bill you
Some regions/flows still request one. Use a virtual/prepaid card so a renewal charge simply can’t land:
Privacy.com — burner card with a $0 / paused spend limit → https://privacy.com/virtual-card
Revolut disposable virtual card (auto-changes after each charge) → https://www.revolut.com/en-US/disposable-virtual-cards/
Wise virtual card you can freeze after signup → https://wise.com/us/virtual-card/
or any near-empty prepaid Visa → https://usa.visa.com/pay-with-visa/find-card/get-prepaid-card
🛑 Cancel before it ends (peace of mind) + 🔁 run it again next month
Turn off auto-renew / cancel (Account → Plan & billing → Manage subscription → Cancel):
- ├─ Manage plan → https://help.hootsuite.com/s/article/plan-account
- └─ Billing FAQ (how auto-renew works) → https://help.hootsuite.com/s/article/billing-FAQ
Repeat monthly with a fresh-looking email (all land in your real inbox):
SimpleLogin (Proton) aliases → https://simplelogin.io/ · DuckDuckGo @duck.com → https://duckduckgo.com/email/
Gmail trick: [email protected],[email protected]— every variant reads as “new” to the signup
📦 What the Standard plan actually gives you
Up to 10 social accounts · unlimited post scheduling · unified inbox (all DMs/comments in one place) · analytics + best-time-to-post · built-in AI caption/design help. Plenty for one person or a small brand.
