Questions about paying

What exactly is free on Chess Buddy?

The first line of every set in the trainer, plus all of the opening guides with their boards. You can walk that line through with the annotations and play it back from memory, without an account and without an email. The remaining lines of each set need full access.

How do I get access after paying?

Stripe takes you back to a confirmation page and the access details come by email. For the first customers they are put together by hand, so allow a few hours rather than a few seconds.

What if it turns out not to be for me?

Seven days, one email to [email protected], money back, no questions asked.
