What are my options to make mentorship more affordable?

Be it a change in employment, career or family matters, financial situations can change and make mentorship unaffordable.

We've curated this list to show various ways and methods we've built to make the mentoring experience more affordable – because losing out on mentorship is the last thing we'd like.

Change to a cheaper plan

Mentors have a variety of plans available, and if you're not currently on the smallest one, it may be time to reduce the volume of your plans and downgrade to a smaller one.

The changes you make to your plans are applied with the next payment, making the change seamless for you going forward.

Ask your mentor about a "custom plan"

If none of the mentor's existing plans suit you, you can ask them about creating a custom plan for you. This function is available from their dashboard and would allow them to set up a smaller plan that fits your budget.

Book one-off sessions

If you currently can't commit to a subscription fee, one-off sessions are a way to stay in touch with your mentor with a lower commitment. To do so, simply book sessions from their profile.

Commit to quarterly mentorship

Mentors can set up three-month plans that give you a discount in return for committing and paying for the next three months upfront. If you have the cash flow, this can be a good way to save some money long-term.

The option can be set up by all mentors – you can ask them about it or see whether the option is already available in your billing settings.

"Buy Now, Pay Later"

You can purchase pre-paid credit in installments using BNPY payment methods, such as Klarna. To explore the options that are available to you, head over to our help article about pre-paid credit.

Please be aware of the risks, fees, and debts involved with BNPY payment methods before purchasing.

Pause the mentorship

If all else fails, consider pausing your mentorship instead of ending it. That way, you keep your mentoring spot, while also having some time to take care of your financial situation.
