TLDR : Answer Summary
The digital arrival card for Thailand is a free online service. Users must ensure they access the official government website to complete their arrival card, as other sites may charge fees, sometimes significantly. Many commenters confirmed that using the official website is straightforward and does not incur any costs. It typically takes about 5 to 10 minutes to fill out the arrival card, and upon arrival in Thailand, both printed and electronic copies may not be needed for immigration processes.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be agents.co.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

Go onto the Goverment website it is free of charge. Took me 5 to 10 mins, when I arrived at Thailand I had a printed copy and an electronic copy on my expecting to have to show it. The immigration officer asked for neither he just checked my boarding pass and passport and let me in so I take from that it all recorded in their system.
