Freemium

Portmanteau of "Free" and "Premium"

A business model in which there is a mixture of free and paid tiers. A low-end version of the product may be free, while a high-end 'premium' version is paid. A premium version will generally have better support, operate at a higher scale, and have features more suitable for business use.

The free version is essentially a loss leader.
