free of cost
Without any payment
Free of cost means without requiring payment—synonymous with free, gratis, or complimentary.
The phrase is slightly redundant since free alone conveys the same meaning, but it adds emphasis or formality: The consultation is free of cost.
Common in business and legal contexts where clarity about money matters.
