A valid payment method is required: the direct website accepts credit card or PayPal, while supported app stores may allow their own payment methods or sufficient store credit. The trial day begins at signup and each day ends 24 hours later. Crime Central is a separate true-crime subscription; it does not act as a TV provider or unlock the full A&E app or current A&E channel premieres.","regions":["US","Partner-platform availability and pricing can differ"]},"status":"verified","last_checked":"2026-08-28","verification":{"checked_at":"2026-08-28T04:00:08.000Z","outcome":"confirmed-exact","evidence_quality":"provider","checked_url":"https://www.aecrimecentral.com/"},"verification_readiness":{"status":"audit-confirmed-exact","latest_outcome":"confirmed-exact","latest_checked_at":"2026-08-28T04:00:08.000Z","interpretation":"The latest official-source audit confirmed every normalized term it tested."},"signup_url":"https://www.aecrimecentral.com/purchase","action_url":"https://andrewsfreebies.com/go/trial/a-and-e-crime-central?from=api","official_action":{"allowed":true,"status":"ready","reason":"The latest official-source audit confirmed every normalized term it tested."},"activation":{"direct":true,"specificity":"verified-offer-page","terms_found":true,"checked_at":"2026-08-28T03:57:11.000Z","http_status":200},"source_url":"https://www.aecrimecentral.com/","source":{"kind":"provider","primary_url":"https://www.aecrimecentral.com/","evidence":[{"source":"Provider","url":"https://www.aecrimecentral.com/","collection":"manual-first-party-verification","captured_at":"2026-08-28T03:57:11.000Z","source_category":"Current seven-day all-plan trial, basic and bundle prices, commercial-free scope, cancellation statement, and supported-device categories","claimed_duration_days":7,"claimed_duration_label":"7-day free trial with current plans","claimed_credit_card":"varies"},{"source":"Provider","url":"https://www.aecrimecentral.com/purchase","collection":"manual-first-party-verification","captured_at":"2026-08-28T03:57:11.000Z","source_category":"Current direct purchase choices, first-time-subscriber restriction, promotional and gift-code exclusion, and $5.99 monthly or $59.99 annual basic pricing","claimed_duration_days":7,"claimed_duration_label":"7 days for eligible first-time subscribers","claimed_credit_card":"varies"},{"source":"A&E Crime Central Support","url":"https://support.aecrimecentral.com/hc/en-us/articles/360056562134-What-happens-when-my-free-trial-is-over","collection":"manual-first-party-verification","captured_at":"2026-08-28T03:57:11.000Z","source_category":"Automatic charge after the trial, first-time-subscriber restriction, cancellation boundary, and exact 24-hour trial-day definition","claimed_duration_days":7,"claimed_duration_label":"seven 24-hour trial days","claimed_credit_card":"varies"},{"source":"A&E Crime Central Support","url":"https://support.aecrimecentral.com/hc/en-us/articles/360058431853-Do-you-offer-different-types-of-subscriptions","collection":"manual-first-party-verification","captured_at":"2026-08-28T03:57:11.000Z","source_category":"Monthly and annual automatic renewal, then-current-rate billing, valid-payment requirement, direct and app-store payment-method boundaries","claimed_duration_days":7,"claimed_duration_label":"trial followed by selected recurring plan","claimed_credit_card":"varies"},{"source":"A&E Support","url":"https://support.aetv.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500004781882-I-don-t-have-a-TV-package-Can-I-subscribe-directly-to-A-E","collection":"manual-first-party-verification","captured_at":"2026-08-28T03:57:11.000Z","source_category":"U.S. direct-subscription availability and the boundary between Crime Central, unlocked free A&E content, and full TV-provider access","claimed_duration_days":7,"claimed_duration_label":"separate Crime Central subscription rather than full A&E channel access","claimed_credit_card":"varies"},{"source":"A&E Crime Central on Prime Video Channels","url":"https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/offers?benefitId=aetncrimecentral","collection":"adjacent-platform-first-party-evidence","captured_at":"2026-08-25T17:47:29.148Z","source_category":"Separate Prime Video Channels offer showing a seven-day trial and platform-specific billing","claimed_duration_days":7,"claimed_duration_label":"7 days through Prime Video Channels","claimed_credit_card":"required"},{"source":"TrialForFree","url":"https://trialforfree.com/ae-crime-central-free-trial-2/","collection":"legacy-pages","captured_at":"2026-08-03T13:17:55.684Z","source_category":null,"claimed_duration_days":7,"claimed_duration_label":"7 days","claimed_credit_card":"required"},{"source":"TrialForFree","url":"https://trialforfree.com/offers/ae-crime-central/","collection":"offers","captured_at":"2026-08-03T13:17:55.684Z","source_category":"Streaming TV & movies","claimed_duration_days":null,"claimed_duration_label":null,"claimed_credit_card":"unknown"}]},"web_url":"/trials/a-and-e-crime-central"}
