Frequently Asked Questions
Is SPF really free for families?
Yes. Searching for providers, saving favorites, and writing reviews are free. We may show ads to free users to support the service.
Can providers list for free?
Yes. Basic provider listings are free, and providers can verify their identity for the blue Verified badge at no cost. Gold would be a paid upgrade.
When will paid plans launch?
We don't have a launch date yet, and we'd rather not promise one. Create a free account and opt in if you want an email when plans are ready.
Why are limits capped instead of unlimited?
Caps keep the directory useful and hard to spam, and they keep messaging safe for providers. Paid plans raise the limits rather than removing them.
