PredictWind offers several discounts for its subscription plans. The eligibility may vary based on the type of user and purchasing method. Below is a breakdown of all the key details:

Overview of Promotional Discounts

PredictWind runs time-limited promotional campaigns designed primarily to encourage Free version users to upgrade to paid plans. These promotional discounts, such as a 50% discount offered during certain campaigns, apply only to Free version customers upgrading for the first time. They are not applicable to existing subscriptions or renewal plans.

Membership-based Discounts

In addition to general promotions, PredictWind provides exclusive discounts for members of specific associations. For example, Island Cruising members are eligible for:

  • A 20% discount on forecast subscriptions. This discount can be applied to both brand-new purchases and renewals of any level forecast subscription.

  • To utilize this discount, purchases or renewals must be made directly on the PredictWind website (not through app stores).

  • After completing the transaction, users can request a manual refund to apply the 20% membership discount

Members of other associations, such as RORC members, Ocean Posse and Viking Explorer Club, are also eligible for similar discounts.

Important Notes on Discount Eligibility

  • Promotional discounts are exclusive to Free version users and cannot be combined with association discounts.

  • Membership discounts are limited to certain associations and must be manually claimed after purchase/renewal.

  • Purchases made via app stores (e.g., Apple or Google Play) are ineligible for manual refund adjustments or association discounts.

Payment and Refund Instructions

For customers claiming a membership-based discount:

Purchase or renew your subscription directly through the PredictWind website. Complete the payment process. Submit a manual refund request to apply the applicable membership discount by emailing support@predictwind.com. For new subscriptions, log in to your PredictWind account on a desktop or laptop, navigate to Settings > Billing > Change Plan, and complete the purchase. Notify PredictWind support after the purchase to have the discount refund applied.

Note: Direct purchases ensure eligibility for these discounts. Transactions via app stores are non-refundable for applying such discounts. If transitioning from third-party platforms like Google Play, cancel your subscription, request a refund from the platform, and purchase a new subscription directly from the PredictWind website. Notify PredictWind support to apply the 20% discount refund. For renewals, ensure to contact PredictWind support as soon as possible after the renewal date to request the 20% refund.
