When do I get my course?
If you're on a mobile device, once you purchase or subscribe to your course and download the app, you can start streaming it immediately. For the desktop version, just go to the Pimsleur.com home page and click on the Launch My Course link at the top right.
Where can I see my list of digital courses?
All of your courses are listed in the app Library. To access the Library in the mobile app, tap the menu icon (☰) at the top right corner, then tap Library. To access the Library in the web app on your computer, click the arrow at the top right corner, then click Library.
If you purchased or subscribed to the course via in-app purchasing, you’ll need to go to Apple or Google Play app stores to manage your library.
If I have a problem with my credit card transaction or other billing issue, how can I get it resolved quickly?
If for any reason you have trouble purchasing a course, if your card is not accepted, or if there is a billing problem that needs to be resolved, please contact Pimsleur Customer Service, and we will assist you. We are committed to resolving your issue as quickly as possible.
Will my account be automatically billed for my subscription?
Yes. At the end of each subscription period (or free trial, if applicable), your Pimsleur subscription will automatically be renewed and billed for another subscription period until you contact us to cancel. For details on how to cancel, click here.
If you subscribed via in-app purchase, your billing relationship will be with Apple or Google as applicable and the payment method associated with your iTunes or Google Play account will be charged upon renewal. Please keep in mind that your subscription could renew if you don’t cancel at least 24 hours before your renewal date. Instructions on how to manage a subscription purchased through Apple or Google are below.
Is my subscription good for every language, or for one language that I select?
Each Premium or Audio-Only subscription is good for one language, and includes access to all available levels for that language. If you want access to more than one language at a time, you’ll need to subscribe to our All Access plan. You’ll have access to all your subscription in the Pimsleur app for as long as your subscription is current.
How many lessons do I have access to with my subscription?
This varies by language, but you will have access to all the Pimsleur lessons that exist for a particular language. For most popular languages, there are 150 lessons.
Do I need to do anything to keep my subscription once my free trial is over?
No, we ask you to provide payment information when you start your free trial. Once your free trial period is over, your subscription will start automatically, and will continue until you contact us to cancel, or if you subscribed via in-app purchase, until you cancel the subscription through Apple or Google Play as applicable.
Will I be charged during my free trial?
No, we do not charge you for the trial period. Your subscription will begin automatically following the end of your free trial if you do not cancel during the trial period and you will be charged for your first billing period at that time.
What if I want to change my payment method for a subscription purchased on Pimsleur.com?
You can access and edit the payment information used to pay for your Pimsleur subscription at any time. Just click here and update payment.
If I cancel my subscription, can I still access the lessons I’ve already done?
Access to lessons is only open to active subscribers and purchasers. However, your lesson history will be saved, so if you decide to re-subscribe (and use the same account as your original subscription), your lesson history will be available. Only one free trial period is allowed per subscription.
When do I need to cancel my subscription?
If you purchase your subscription through Pimsleur.com, you must cancel your subscription not later than 11:59pm Eastern Time on the last day of your current billing period (or your free trial period, if applicable) in order to avoid being charged for subscription renewal.
If you purchase your subscription through Apple, your billing relationship will be with Apple and will be subject to Apple’s policies on cancellation timing.
If you purchase your subscription through Google Play, your billing relationship will be with Google and will be subject to Google Play’s policies on cancellation timing. In either case, please be aware that your subscription could renew if you don’t cancel at least 24 hours before your renewal date.
Does my subscription end on the day that I cancel, or at the end of my billing period?
If you cancel your Pimsleur subscription in the middle of your subscription term, the cancellation will go into effect at the end of the then-current billing period. You will be able to continue to access your lessons until then, but we cannot issue refunds or exchanges (except, for subscriptions purchased through Pimsleur.com, in accordance with the terms of Pimsleur’s 30-day Money-Back Guarantee).
What if I forget to cancel before the end of the billing period?
You must cancel your subscription before it renews to avoid paying for the next subscription period.
I already own Level 1. Can I subscribe to just 4 levels?
The price is the same for one level or five. Once your subscription starts, you’ll have access to all the levels of a language that exist. You only need to use the levels and lessons you wish, but the subscription fee gives you access to all of them. Many people enjoy returning to earlier lessons to work on their pronunciation or review.
Can I use my course on multiple devices?
Yes, you can use on as many devices as you’d like as long as they are for your personal use.
