Bengali AKA Bangla :
Probably :
মুফত [ muphata ] adv. & a. ‘cost-free’, ‘gratuitous’; ‘without remuneration’, ‘gratis’

Respondent Erik said ‘muphata’ being Bangla for ‘free’ which is correct, but not in the context you have asked here.
Btw, ‘muphata’ is originally Farsi (Persian) and then transcended into Urdu and sometimes used as demeaning term in Bangla as well as in Urdu for getting like ‘free-ride’! Muphata has got a negative connotation to it like another similar word in Bangla “Magna” used as slang..
I think it would be more appropriate if you use the word “Bina Mullya” or “Bina Mashuley” meaning without-cost or without payment. (Bina = Without, Mullya or Mashul = Cost).
Hope above helps.
