Pricing questions
Frequently asked
Is there really a free plan?
Yes, genuinely free — not a trial. Our free plan gives you 1–2 activity ideas per day from a curated library, and 5 AI-personalised suggestions per week. No credit card required to sign up.
What's included in the free trial?
The 14-day free trial on paid plans gives you full access to every feature on your chosen plan — no restrictions. At the end of 14 days, you can continue by adding a payment method, or drop back to the free plan automatically.
Can I switch plans?
Yes, any time. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel from your account settings. If you downgrade mid-cycle, you keep the current plan until the end of the billing period.
Do you offer annual billing?
Yes — pay annually and get roughly 2 months free on both paid plans. Annual pricing: Family €59.99/year (saves €23.89), Educator €134.99/year (saves €44.89).
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) via Stripe. All transactions are processed securely. We do not store card details.
Is there a family or group discount?
We're working on group pricing for homeschool co-ops and parent groups. Get in touch at hello@thehedge.ie if you're enquiring for a group.
