If you have a promo code, there’s a box for it at checkout. Start an upgrade from Settings → Plans & Billing under Account, and on the Stripe checkout page click Add promotion code before you pay.

Ways to pay less

Pay annually. The straightforward one, and it needs no code. Pro is $8/month or $80/year, and Business is $20/user/month or $200/user/year — a year up front costs you ten months rather than twelve. You can switch an existing monthly subscription to annual at any time; see Changing your plan. Refer people. Every friend who signs up through your link and uses OpenWhispr earns you a free month, with no cap on how many. See Referrals. Use local models. Not a discount so much as the alternative to needing one: on-device transcription is unlimited on every plan including Free, and costs nothing. If the reason you’re upgrading is the cloud word allowance, a local model may remove the need entirely — see Cloud vs local processing.

Student, non-profit and academic pricing

We don’t have a standing discount programme for these today. That’s an honest “not yet” rather than a no — if you’re a student, a researcher, or a non-profit, email support@openwhispr.com and tell us a bit about what you’re using it for. We read these and we do say yes.

Email us with the code and we’ll apply it to your existing subscription.
Occasionally. The reliable saving is annual billing, which is always available.
