Which plan to pickAn individual should take Professional: the free redo is worth the extra $10 over Basic. Companies should use the Team plan, where credits never expire and the per-person price drops as you buy more.There's nothing to buy for the names themselves. If you want a logo for the name you pick, Brandmark sells one-off logo packages from $35, but you can take the name anywhere.Start on the free daily allowance. Lite is plenty for most small businesses. Only move to Pro if you're making images every day.
