Pricing FAQ

Q. How long will it take to get through TextFugu?

A. TextFugu is still getting lessons added to it every week, but when the core lessons are all "done" it will take between six and twelve months to "complete" TextFugu, depending on how much time you have to study.

Q. Is any of the content different if I do monthly versus forever?

A. Both membership plans get you the same content and the same updates - the only difference is the payment model.

Q. Why would I get monthly when I could get forever?

A. The "forever" plan is definitely the better deal of the two, but there are a couple reasons why you might want to go monthly. It may seem kind of self serving, but if you are on a monthly payment plan, it will encourage you to study harder and more effectively, thus helping you learn Japanese more quickly. Think of it as a form of motivation! Also, $20 a month is sometimes more manageable than a larger payment, like the $120 "forever" plan.

Q. What if I want to upgrade to the forever plan sometime after paying monthly?

A. Currently, you will have to unsubscribe from the monthly plan and purchase the forever plan. Some time in the future there may be some kind of reduced "buyout" for those who want to upgrade from monthly.

Q. How do I pay for TextFugu?

A. TextFugu uses Paypal, the best and most secure way to pay online, ever.

Q. But I'm so poor / I'm a young child! Where will I find this kind of money?

A. Try asking your parents / friends / relatives. Buying TextFugu isn't like buying a GI Joe, you can use it to better yourself and get smarter! If that doesn't work, there's always Mechanical Turk!

Q. How do refunds work?

A. Just send an e-mail to refunds@textfugu.com asking for one. If you send your e-mail in within the first week of membership, you are eligible for the 110% guarantee, but in order to get this you have to write 100-200 words of feedback so that we can get better! Otherwise, you can get a regular refund within the first 2 weeks. Refunds are sent via Paypal.

Q. I'm a teacher and want to use this with my students / I'm a boss and want to use this with my employees. Now what?

A. Please contact koichi@textfugu.com for massive discounts.
