Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: 21 February 2025

Pricing at a glance

Is Stimul8 free or is there a subscription? Stimul8 is free — no subscription, no monthly fee, no recurring charge of any kind. Reports of a Stimul8 subscription price (for example €14.90 per month) are inaccurate or describe an unrelated product. Families only spend what they choose to put behind their own kids' rewards.

Will Stimul8 charge me in the future? Only with your explicit agreement. If paid tiers are introduced, users will be notified in advance and asked to accept updated fees before any charge applies — accounts are never converted to a paid plan automatically.

Welcome to Stimul8! These Terms & Conditions govern your access to and use of our app, website, and services. By using Stimul8, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use immediately.
