Questions about joining the Lenspiration Membership?
Learn How it Works!
Can I earn any certifications with Lenspiration training?
Lenspiration is a self-guided online photography platform, not an accredited photography school offering degrees and certifications. However, completion of Lenspiration's Photography Program will provide you with a physical record of your work that may be useful in pursuing recognized certification or higher education.
Is the membership for only one person, or can more than one person in the same household use it at the same price?
Subscription is for the whole family! There will be some things you'll have to reset for the next person (like course quizzes), but no need to pay for multiple subscriptions for multiple family members.
Is there a way to access the photography forums for free?
Yes. First, you must join the membership.
Because the membership has a free trial, there is no cost for joining. When you join, an account will be created with Lenspiration. This account is what allows you to participate on the forums.
If you cancel your membership, you will lose access to all membership features, but since you will still have an account with Lenspiration, you will still be able to participate on the forums.
Regardless of how long your membership lasts, you will have access to the forums through your account even after canceling your membership. Therefore, if you want to participate in the forums for free, join the membership and then cancel your membership before the free trial expires.
Can I count my Lenspiration training as a business expense?
Yes!
What is your refund policy?
How will you bill me?
When you start your free trial, you provide the billing information that you want to be charged when the free trial expires. Both credit card and PayPal options are available.
What happens at the end of my free trial?
After your free trial, you will automatically be charged for the subscription interval that you chose when you joined, unless your cancel. For example, if you started your free trial on February 10 and chose to be billed Annually, then on March 10, you will be charged for an annual subscription that would renew on March 10 of the following year.
How can I cancel my free membership within the first month?
You can cancel your membership at any time under My Account when you are logged in.
If any discounts are applied to your membership, canceling your membership will end all discounts.
If you think you might want to rejoin later, you might want to use the option to put your membership "on hold" instead of completely canceling it. This will pause your membership, but allow you to rejoin with the same discounts that may have been applied to your membership before. You are limited to the number of times you are allowed to put your membership on hold.
Why do I need to add a credit card number to try a free month?
Providing your credit card number to access a free trial
- Allows you to receive full access to every aspect of the membership during the trial period
- Discourages spammers from gaining access to community-based features such as the forums
- Streamlines the billing process once the trial period is over.
You will always receive email notifications when you are billed.
If we buy a monthly membership, can we eventually switch it to an annual membership?
Yes. It is easy to switch your membership in your account settings.
What happens if I need to change my debit/credit card number during my membership?
This can be easily done under My Account.
Can I put my account on "hold" if I can't use it?
Yes, you can pause your membership if needed by setting your subscription to "On Hold" under My Account.
You can only pause your membership twice per billing period. For example, if you have chosen to be billed Annually, you can only pause and rejoin the membership twice within the next 12 months. It is better to pause your membership than to cancel it if you think you may want to rejoin because all discounts that are applied to your membership will still be applied when you rejoin. All discounts will end when you cancel.
Can I change or cancel my plan later on?
Yes. You can cancel, pause, or change the billing interval of your membership at any time under My Account.
