How much does Beeminder cost?

That depends on how you set things up, and how often you derail!

Beeminder costs nothing to join, and you can create three active goals without paying anything. If you don't create a goal in the first week, you'll have to pay $5.

You can get more free goals by submitting feedback, and you get one extra goal slot for each derailment you pay for.

Some users choose to add a monthly premium subscription for extra features, including unlimited goals. Premium features and costs are detailed on our premium page — check out the slider if you're interested in a pre-pay discount!

Without premium, charges otherwise only kick in when you have derailments on your goals (i.e. when you fail to complete them in time), and the overall cost will depend on how you set your pledge and how often you derail. You can change your pledge (with a 7-day wait for the change to kick in) and set a cap for the highest you can be charged on a given goal.

The lowest possible charge for a derailment is $5 (aside from in the first week if you choose to hold the pledge at $0 while you test out the goal). After that, unless you cap the pledge, each derailment will take you down a rung on the pledge schedule, with the charge increasing at each step.

Do you have any discounts?

We offer discounts for the Infinibee and Bee Plus premium plans for students, jobseekers, users in non-OECD countries and seniors. It amounts to a buy-one-get-one-free discount: you pay for a period of time at full price, let us know, and we'll give you that amount in honey money to cover your next payment.

For example, if you're a student, and you buy two months of Infinibee at $16 in August, you can email us and let us know that, and we'll add $16 of honey money. That will cover your renewal in October, and then in December you'll pay full price again and can contact us for your next batch of credit.
