On clicking Proceed in trial mode you will be forwarded to the subscription page to activate trial mode. Enter your email and payment information to start a free 5-day evaluation period. After it finishes, you will be automatically upgraded to the monthly subscription starting at $10 per month.

You will be able to cancel the subscription, update your payment information, or choose the preferred license in your Conquest account created upon the trial activation.
