what happens at the end of the 7 day free trial, do we get charged automatically or how does this this work?
L
Luc L
InstructorThere is no need to cancel your Wize All-Access Pass subscription after the free trial. Since Wize does not take any credit card information for the free trial, your access will automatically end after the 7-day free trial. You will not be charged unless you decide to subscribe after your trial.

InstructorWize practice questions will tell you whether or not your answer is correct, but this is just to help give you feedback on your understanding.
I recommend that you check your syllabus or ask your instructor about the evaluations involved in your course.
