Understand Monthly and Yearly Subscriptions

Learn how monthly auto-renewal, yearly manual renewal and billing-cycle changes work.

Monthly subscriptions

  • Renew automatically through the active payment mandate.
  • Continue until cancelled or payment retries fail permanently.
  • Can be cancelled at the end of the current paid period.
  • Can be replaced immediately by another paid plan or yearly purchase.

Yearly subscriptions

  • Paid once for 12 months.
  • Do not auto-renew.
  • Do not require cancellation.
  • Show a renewal reminder during the final seven days.
  • Academy accounts move to Free, and Coach accounts move to Coach Starter, if a yearly plan is not renewed.

Changing cycles

Monthly-to-yearly changes require a new payment and start immediately. Yearly-to-monthly changes are available only during the final seven days and also require a new purchase.

Unused overlap

When an active paid plan is replaced, remaining time on the previous plan is not refunded.
