You don't necessarily have to pay for a plan. You can choose the free plan which allows you to link up to four EDB files (two free + two paid). This plan is ideal for sharing your unique EDB creating style and vision with other users. However, it's important to consider that as more users download and love your EDBs, they'll likely want to download more of your creations. With the Basic, Pro, and Premium plans, you can extend the number of your EDB files on GetEdb, upload paid EDBs, potentially earn money, and access extra perks that will help you sell your EDBs. In short, the paid plans offer greater flexibility, increased earning potential, and more features that can enhance your EDB-selling experience.
