Setting up your HelloGrowthCRM account takes about five minutes — we'll walk through creating your workspace, verifying your domain, choosing your plan tier, and confirming your billing region (INR for India, USD elsewhere).

How to use this guide

Read the intro to confirm this is the right workflow, complete the steps in order, then review the common issues and related articles if your setup behaves differently from the standard path.

What you'll need

  • A business email address (use a custom domain like you@yourcompany.com, not Gmail)
  • Your company name and approximate team size
  • A credit/debit card or UPI ID if you plan to upgrade past the free trial
  • About 5 minutes of uninterrupted setup time
  1. 1

    Visit the signup page

    Go to hellogrowthcrm.com/free-trial and click Start your free trial. The 14-day trial gives full Growth-plan access — no credit card required.

  2. 2

    Enter your business email

    Type your work email and click Continue. We send a 6-digit OTP. Check spam if it doesn't arrive in 60 seconds.

  3. 3

    Choose your workspace name and subdomain

    Pick a workspace name (e.g., Acme Sales) and a permanent subdomain like acme.hellogrowthcrm.com. Lowercase, hyphens allowed.

  4. 4

    Select billing region

    Choose India (INR) or International (USD). India billing applies 18% GST and supports Razorpay (UPI/net-banking/cards).

  5. 5

    Pick your plan tier

    HelloGrowthCRM offers four India plans: Free Forever (₹0, no card needed), Starter, Growth, and Enterprise. The Growth plan (₹899/user/month billed annually) is the most popular and unlocks the built-in dialer, bulk WhatsApp, and AI lead scoring with a 14-day free trial. Check the pricing page for current rates, since plans and prices can change.

  6. 6

    Complete the onboarding wizard

    4-step wizard: industry, primary use case, team size, and lead sources. These pre-configure dashboards and integrations.

  7. 7

    Confirm your dashboard loads

    You land on the home dashboard with empty-state widgets. Bookmark your subdomain for future logins.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a credit card to start the trial?

No. The 14-day Growth trial requires only an email. You'll be asked to add a payment method when you upgrade or when the trial ends.

Can I change my subdomain later?

The subdomain is permanent. To change it, you'd need to export your data, delete the workspace, and create a new one.

What happens to my data after the trial ends?

Your data is preserved for 90 days in read-only mode if you don't upgrade. After 90 days, it's permanently deleted per our retention policy.

Can I have multiple workspaces?

Yes — each workspace is billed separately. Use the workspace switcher (top-left avatar dropdown) to move between them.

Is my data hosted in India?

Yes. Our India region runs on Supabase + AWS Mumbai (ap-south-1). International accounts default to AWS US-East.
