One flat price covers every language and up to 8 learners. Here's exactly what's included at every tier.
Every plan includes the exact same feature set — Spanish, French, Mandarin, Japanese, Russian, and ASL, for up to 8 learners on one account, with no ads and no microphone requirement anywhere in the app. The only difference between tiers is how you pay, not what you get. All new subscriptions start with a free 72-hour trial with full access, and no credit card is required to begin the trial.
Starting a Lumi Lingo trial unlocks full access — every language, every feature — for 72 hours, with no credit card needed to begin. If a family decides to continue after the trial, they pick whichever billing plan fits best: monthly for flexibility, annual for a lower ongoing rate, or lifetime for a single upfront payment with nothing to manage afterward. There's no obligation to continue, and no charge happens automatically without choosing a plan.
Monthly and annual subscriptions can be canceled anytime from account settings, and access continues through the end of the period already paid for. The lifetime plan is a single one-time purchase, so there's no subscription to manage or cancel at all going forward. This same straightforward approach to billing is consistent with how Lumi Academy and Lumi High structure their own plans — clear pricing upfront, no hidden per-child surcharges.
The right plan mostly comes down to how long a family expects to use it and whether they'd rather pay a little each month or settle the cost once. Monthly is the lowest-commitment option — a fair choice for a family still deciding whether language learning is going to stick as a habit. Annual works out to roughly $7.50/month, a meaningful discount over paying monthly across a full year, and it's the better default once a family already knows they're in it for the long haul. Lifetime is the outlier: pay once at $299.99 and the account never bills again, which tends to make the most sense for a family expecting to use it for several years — the breakeven point against the annual plan lands a bit over three years of ongoing use.
None of that math changes based on how many of the up-to-8 learner slots are actually filled. A single kid learning Spanish pays exactly the same as a household of eight kids splitting time across all six languages, which is a deliberate design choice rather than an accident — the goal is one predictable household bill, not a running tally that grows every time a new sibling starts a language.
Most language apps price per learner, so a rough sense of what a comparable household would pay elsewhere is worth having in mind. See the full breakdown of how per-seat family plan pricing typically works across the category, including a real math example for a family of three or four. In short: the more people in a household are learning, the more a flat price like Lumi Lingo's tends to separate from per-seat competitor pricing, while a single learner might find the difference smaller.
