Pricing FAQ
What is included in Premium?
Core Premium includes unlimited reviewed-catalog weekly planning, expanded cookbook storage, Grocery and Pantry tools, Guided Cooking, favorites, and cloud sync — plus fair-use AI imports and custom generation.
Does Premium include unlimited weekly meal plans?
Yes for reviewed-catalog weekly planning, subject to normal abuse protection. Those plans do not consume your AI-generation allowance.
What does lifetime include?
Founding Lifetime is a one-time payment for core Premium access with no recurring subscription. AI-powered imports and custom generation remain subject to monthly fair-use limits. Permanence follows DishDelightful’s product terms — we do not promise unlimited cloud service forever beyond those terms.
Why are AI features limited?
Photo processing, recipe imports, and custom generation use external computing services. Fair-use limits keep Premium affordable for everyone.
What happens to existing subscribers?
Existing subscriptions remain on their current billing terms unless you change them separately. New-user pricing on this page does not reprice your account.
Can I cancel monthly or annual Premium?
Yes — use Manage Subscription on Plan & Usage to open the Stripe Customer Portal.
Can I cancel lifetime?
Lifetime is not a recurring subscription, so there is nothing to cancel. Refunds follow the applicable refund policy — see Contact.
Billing notes
- Checkout and payment methods are handled on Stripe-hosted pages. DishDelightful does not store card numbers.
- Monthly and annual subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel. Lifetime is a one-time purchase with no renewal.
- Premium is never activated from a success URL alone — the API updates your plan after Stripe confirms payment.
