A gift for a birder
Give the birder in your life WhenToBird Lifetime: one payment, no subscription. You get a code by email, they redeem it with their own email address, and it is theirs. It never renews and never charges them anything.
Lifetime gift
$19
The founding price while founding copies last, then $29. The app shows the current price, and how many founding copies are left, before you pay. You pay once; they never pay at all.
What they get
Unlimited trip planning: pick a place and dates and get the best spot for each day and the birds to look for there. Birds that would be new for them at every nearby spot. Every feature added later, for as long as WhenToBird runs.
How it works
- Open the app's Account screen and choose Gift Lifetime. You sign in with your own email and pay through Stripe.
- The code, like
WTB-7KQM-3XHT, arrives by email right away and stays in your Account, with a link to share. - Write it in a card, print it, text it or forward the email. They open the link, sign in with their own email, and it is theirs. They do not need a card, and nothing is ever billed to them.
Who it suits
- Someone who plans birding trips, or would like to: a week in Arizona in May, a weekend at a refuge for cranes. The trip planner is the heart of Lifetime.
- Someone who keeps a life list on eBird. After they import it, every nearby spot shows which likely birds would be new for them this week.
- A new birder who keeps asking when the warblers come through, or where the eagles are in winter.
Much of WhenToBird is free already: every species and state page, the charts, Near me, photo and sound ID, the games, the life list and one full trip plan. If the person you have in mind only wants those, they do not need a gift; send them the link. Lifetime is for the birder who wants to plan every trip with it.
Questions
Will it ever charge them?
No. There is no card on their side. Lifetime is paid once and never turns into a subscription.
What do they need?
An email address and a web browser, on a phone or a computer.
What if they already have it?
The code stays unused, so they can pass it on to a friend, or you can refund it (below).
Can I get my money back?
Yes, within 30 days of buying, as long as the code has not been redeemed: one tap in Account, Purchases, or email hello@whentobird.com. The code then stops working.
Does it expire?
No. The code does not expire, so it is fine to buy it now and hand it over later, and Lifetime does not expire either.
