Review

The Premium Pass does give more value over time to players who choose to support the game due to the additional 30 booster packs for $10, over directly purchasing Poké Gold. While the Premium Missions and its associated rewards are also a nice bonus, they can completed very quickly (especially for new accounts) and offers little in terms of content.

At the very least, the trial should be picked up by everyone at some point when you want to obtain the Premium Shop items (which rotates every two months) and the promo-9-pikachu promo card is a nice bonus (but not a "must" have card).

The best point to use up your trial seems to be before the Missions refresh, allowing you to claim them twice during the trial period and even up two two promo cards for that month.
