Card required at signup. Cancel before day 14 to avoid any charge. Plans from £12/mo.
If you are searching for free repair shop software, here is the honest picture. RepairKeeper no longer offers a free-forever tier to new signups — but every paid plan starts with a 14-day free trial so you can run a real shop on it, test every feature you will actually use, and only commit to paying if the product earns it.
The trial is a genuine no-cost evaluation: you pick a plan, pay nothing for 14 days, and get the full feature set for that plan. A payment card is captured at signup so billing can start automatically on day 15 if you continue. Cancel any time during the trial from your dashboard and you will not be charged.
Shops already on the original free plan from before it was retired are grandfathered in and keep it indefinitely. If that is you, nothing changes.
What's included during your 14-day trial
You get the full feature set of whichever plan you pick. No stripped-down demo, no hidden limits.
Full ticket management
Create unlimited tickets during the trial. Each ticket supports multiple devices, full fault descriptions, accessories, passcodes, and independent per-device statuses.
Customer management
Full customer profiles with contact details, repair history, and notes. Smart duplicate detection and merge included.
Quoting & invoicing
Create detailed quotes and professional invoices with line items, VAT support, and PDF export. Email invoices directly to customers.
Customer tracking page
Every ticket generates a unique tracking link. Customers check repair status in real time without calling you.
Digital signatures
Capture intake and collection signatures on screen. A clear record of what was agreed and when the device changed hands.
Auto-status engine
Intelligent status automation — device statuses advance based on your parts workflow. The ticket status always reflects reality.
Inventory (Standard & Pro)
Track stock across multiple locations, manage suppliers, auto-allocate parts to tickets, and see stock demand at a glance.
Repair wiki (Standard & Pro)
Searchable knowledge base of devices, parts, faults, and repair guides. Share globally across all shops or keep entries private.

Already on the free plan? You are grandfathered in.
RepairKeeper retired the free-forever plan for new signups, but every shop that was already on it keeps it — indefinitely. You retain your 25 tickets per month, 1 team member, and the core feature set you signed up with. No action required. Your account continues as normal.
When you are ready to scale — more tickets, team members, inventory management, or the repair wiki — you can upgrade from your dashboard in a minute. All your data carries over.
Who the 14-day trial is for
The trial works for repair businesses at any stage — from first-week solo technicians to established multi-tech shops.
Solo technicians
Running a one-person phone or computer repair operation? Trial the Solo plan — 75 tickets/mo at £12/mo covers most small shops, three times what the old free plan did.
New repair businesses
Just getting started? Trial the plan that fits your projected volume. You have two weeks to load up customers, build your workflow, and confirm the fit.
Evaluating software
Comparing RepairKeeper against RepairDesk, Repair Pilot, or RepairBook? Full product access for 14 days lets you properly stress-test a real workflow before switching.
Migrating from another tool
Import customers, set up statuses, and run your first week of repairs inside the trial. If it is not a better fit, cancel before day 14 — no charge, no follow-up.
Small teams
Trial Standard or Pro to test team permissions, audit logging, and inventory management with your actual staff and stock. No time-limited feature fences.
Budget-conscious shops
Every pound matters. Paid plans start at £12/mo and the trial means you pay nothing while you decide — no commitment until day 15.
Free trial questions
Does RepairKeeper offer free repair shop software?
Every paid plan — Solo (£12/mo), Lite (£20/mo), Standard (£30/mo), and Pro (£55/mo) — starts with a 14-day free trial. A card is required at signup and you can cancel any time before day 14 to avoid being charged. Shops that were on the original free plan before it was retired remain grandfathered in.
Is the 14-day free trial really free?
Yes. You pay nothing for 14 days. A payment card is required at signup so billing can begin automatically on day 15 if you continue. Cancel any time during the trial and no charge is taken.
Why was the free forever plan retired for new signups?
The old free plan drew signups that never became active shops, which diluted product focus. A 14-day trial on paid plans gives new shops full access to the feature set they will actually use — including the Solo plan at £12/mo with 75 tickets per month, which is larger than the old free plan's 25-ticket cap.
I already have a free account — do I lose it?
No. Every shop that was on the free plan before it was retired is grandfathered in and keeps it indefinitely, with the same 25 tickets per month, 1 team member, and core feature set. You can upgrade to a paid plan any time if your shop outgrows it.
What happens at the end of the trial?
On day 15, the card you provided at signup is charged for your first month (or year, if you chose yearly billing). Cancel from your dashboard at any point during the trial and no charge is taken.
Can I switch plans during the trial?
Yes. You can switch between Solo, Lite, Standard, and Pro during the trial to find the best fit. The trial window does not reset when you switch.
What is the cheapest paid plan?
Solo is £12/mo and includes 75 tickets per month — three times the old free plan's allowance — with core ticketing, invoicing, customer tracking pages, digital signatures, and auto-status automation. It starts with a 14-day free trial.
Is there a free trial for UK businesses specifically?
Yes. RepairKeeper is built in the UK, priced in GBP, and handles UK VAT correctly. The 14-day trial is available to repair businesses worldwide, with UK shops being the primary audience.
