Questions About Our Plans

Will My Existing Access or Price Change?

No. These prices apply to new purchases. Existing free workspaces, purchases, subscriptions, manual or administrative grants, and shared-project rights keep their current terms. There is no automatic migration or retroactive restriction.

Can I Buy One of These Plans Now?

Yes. Choose a plan above and pay securely with Stripe, using the same email as your LBIC account. We switch on your access within one business day and email you when it is ready.

What Is Free?

The Free Trade Starter includes public tools, guides, Trade Notes, Directory browsing, the first four planning steps of a first project and one sourcing request. Completing the full project costs C$49 per project, including the first. Existing customers keep their current access.

How Is C$49 Different from Pro?

C$49 is the one-time price for one complete project. Pro is the subscription for multiple projects, at C$29/month or C$290/year. The separate C$19 Starter Pack is a worksheet product; it is neither a workspace purchase nor a Pro subscription.

Do People I Invite Have to Pay?

No. People you invite to your project take part for free; they don’t need to buy their own workspace.

Does Directory Membership Mean a Business Is Verified?

No. Payment and listing visibility are separate from verification, review and permission to publish a profile. Membership does not guarantee a lead, a service provider’s performance or regulatory compliance.

Are Taxes Included?

Prices shown are in Canadian dollars before applicable GST/HST. Final tax disclosures will be confirmed before paid checkout becomes available.

What About Earlier Purchases and Refunds?

Earlier purchases and access are honoured. If you need help reaching something you bought, visit the Help Centre. See Refunds & Delivery for the relevant product terms.
