How much of a discount is the $149/year subscription?

If you were to subscribe at our regular monthly price for $19.99 a month, for a whole year, this deal saves you a whopping $90 over the regular price.

If you were to subscribe at our regular yearly price for $14.99 a month (billed once a year as $179.88), this would save you over $30 for the whole year.

Whichever way you look at it, it’s an amazing deal!

I have a monthly subscription to raywenderlich.com. Am I still eligible for the $149/year subscription?

Absolutely! Simply purchase the yearly subscription, and we will automatically credit you for any remaining days on your current subscription, and then move you over to the new yearly subscription.

I have a yearly subscription to raywenderlich.com. Am I eligible for the $149/year subscription?

If your yearly subscription is ending in fewer than 31 days, then you can definitely upgrade to get the new rate. If your subscription renews more than 31 days from today, then unfortunately you aren’t eligible to upgrade to the $149/year subscription.

When will the $149/year subscription renew?

If you are upgrading from a monthly subscription to the $149/year subscription, or you don’t currently have an active subscription, then your renewal date will be in a year’s time from the day you buy the discounted subscription.

If you are upgrading from a yearly subscription and are within the last 30 days of your yearly subscription, your renewal date will remain the same as your current yearly plan.

Will the price of the $149/year subscription go up after the first year?

You’ll pay $149 for the first year; then, when it’s time to renew in a year’s time, you’ll automatically be charged our discounted yearly price of $179.88 (plus any applicable taxes) and again every year after that. The yearly price of $179.88 gives you a $60 discount from the usual month-to-month price of $19.99 per month, or $239.88 per year.

What is your refund policy?

Our video subscription is non-refundable. However, you can cancel at any time and will keep your video access until the end of your billing period. We do not offer refunds for unused access time. You can cancel by logging in to your raywenderlich.com account and then clicking “manage my subscription”. If you have any trouble/questions, contact us at support@razeware.com for assistance.

Is this a stripped-down version of the usual subscription? What am I missing out on?

You get full access to everything included under our raywenderlich.com video subscription: access to all of our video courses, and screencasts, along with the ability to track your progress through your video courses and pick up where you left off. It’s not a stripped-back version in any way.

Why am I being charged more than $149 when I purchase the subscription?

You’re likely being charged tax on your subscription, which is based on the country from which you are making the purchase.

Why am I being charged tax, since I am tax-exempt?

If you or your company is tax-exempt, there should be a spot to fill in your VAT number during the purchase process. More details here: RW Forums: Where can I enter my VAT number?

If you feel you have been charged tax in error, email our support team at support@razeware.com and we’ll look into it for you.

Can I get an invoice or receipt for my purchase?

Absolutely. Log in to your account and visit https://store.raywenderlich.com/receipts, where you can download all invoices for your purchases with us.

Does a raywenderlich.com subscription include access to the books?

No, unfortunately; the raywenderlich.com subscription is for videos only. But all of our books are on sale right now as well, and we have some sale-priced book bundles as well! You can check them out here.
