What is the difference between a Free Preview account and an Upgraded Pro account (Pro Membership)?
Free Preview lets you explore privately, while Pro Membership unlocks public visibility, curated matching, and verified buyer leads.
Overview
TellTail offers two account types for breeders: Free Preview and Pro Membership (Pro Account). Each serves a different purpose depending on where you are in your breeding journey.
Free Preview Account
- For exploration only – lets you see how TellTail works before committing.
- You can create a profile and explore the platform.
- Preview legitimate buyer matches that are available to you if you upgrade.
- Not visible to buyers and cannot view buyer contact info.
- Best for breeders who want to preview leads before upgrading.
Pro Membership (Pro Account)
- Full access to matching and leads.
- Your profile becomes public to buyers.
- Eligible to be included in TellTail’s curated matching algorithm.
- Access to direct buyer contact info (emails and phone numbers).
- Custom Certified Breeder badge that allows potential buyers to verfy the legitimacy of your program.
- Designed for breeders actively looking to place puppies or grow their program.
Key Difference
- Free Preview = look around (private, no leads).
- Pro Membership = fully participate (public, matched with buyers, eligible for leads).
Takeaway
If you’re just exploring, a Free Preview account is a great starting point. If you’re actively seeking homes for puppies or building a waitlist, an Upgraded Pro Membership is required to connect with verified buyers and benefit from TellTail’s matching system.
