EmberFree to start. No card, no catch.
Every new hunter gets 14 days of the whole app — then keeps a real Free plan for as long as they want. Upgrade to Pro, a Season Pass, or a Club plan whenever it earns its place.
Ember is free to start: 14 days of the whole app with no credit card, then a real Free plan you keep. Pro is $99.99 a year, a one-time Season Pass is $49.99, and a Club plan covers a whole camp from $199.99 a year. The safety chain is free on every plan.
Buy a season, or buy the year.
Same feature set either way. The only question is whether you want it to end at the close of the season or keep running.
What’s the difference between Free and Pro?
Season Pass is Pro for one season. A Club plan is Pro for every covered member. So the only comparison that matters is the one below.

The 14-day trial
Every new hunter starts with 14 days of the whole app — no credit card. When it ends you move to the Free plan, keep your account and your data, and upgrade whenever you want.
Season Pass does not renew
It’s a one-time purchase that unlocks everything for the season and then ends at the season’s close. No subscription, no auto-charge.
Pro & Club auto-renew
Pro and the Club plans renew yearly so your season never lapses. Cancel anytime from your App Store or Google Play settings.
Bought in the app
Plans are purchased inside Ember through the App Store or Google Play. Club plans are bought by the admin and cover members automatically — there’s no per-member checkout.
Common pricing questions
What does Ember cost?
Start free. Every new hunter gets a 14-day trial of the whole app with no credit card, then keeps a free plan for as long as they want. When you’re ready, Pro is $99.99 a year, a one-time Season Pass is $49.99, and a Club plan (5, 15, or 30 members) covers a whole camp from $199.99 a year.
What’s free, and what’s Pro?
Free covers club coordination, stand reservations, your own map with up to 10 pins, current-conditions weather, and the full safety chain — check-in, location sharing, SOS, and automatic escalation to you and your emergency contact if you miss checkout. Pro adds the Breakdown stand scores, deer and antler scoring, premium property, parcel and LiDAR map layers, unlimited pins and clubs, and up to 3 emergency contacts (Free has 1).
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Pro auto-renews yearly and you can cancel anytime; you keep access through the term you paid for, then drop to the Free plan. The one-time Season Pass is $49.99 and never renews.
Start the season free.
Download Ember, take the 14 days, and upgrade only if it earns it. No card to start, and the safety chain never costs a thing.
