I was exploring free trials online but found that many of them aren't actually free. They often require credit card details or have hidden charges. Why is this so? I'm confused about the concept of a 'free trial' if it's not really free.

The intention behind this request is to allow the company to charge the customer if they fail to cancel the trial before it expires.

This practice, although common, can lead to unintended charges if consumers are not diligent in monitoring their subscriptions.
