Billing questions
What counts as a session?
One run of a scenario, from the briefing to the debrief. Radio lessons don't use sessions. Your allowance resets on the 1st of each month, and unused sessions don't carry over.
Can I cancel?
Yes, any time from your account. You keep access until the end of the period you've paid for.
Can I switch between Monthly and Annual?
Yes, from your account. Payments, plan changes and receipts are handled by Stripe, so HelmHalo never sees your card details.
Do you add VAT?
No. The prices shown include VAT where it applies.
Is radar included in Monthly or Annual?
No. Radar is an add-on with its own subscription, £4.99 a month or £29.99 a year, and you can buy it on its own or alongside either plan. Lesson 1 is free for everyone. Radar lessons are marked by the app, not by AI, so they don't use your monthly sessions.
