Does Babbel offer a refund?

Babbel offers a 20-day money-back guarantee for subscriptions purchased directly on babbel.com. If you are within 20 days of purchase, contact support at support.babbel.com to request a refund.

Can I still access my lessons after cancelling?

You retain access until your current subscription period ends. After that, you can still use Babbel's free introductory lesson per language, but the full course catalogue requires an active subscription.

What is the difference between Babbel and Babbel Live?

Babbel is a self-paced app subscription. Babbel Live adds live online classes with certified teachers. These are billed separately — cancelling one does not automatically cancel the other.

Retention Tips

Learning a new language is one of the most rewarding things you can do, and you've already made real progress! Before you cancel, we'd like to offer you a discounted rate on your next subscription period. Babbel lessons are designed by real linguists and take just 15 minutes a day. If time is the issue, you can always come back — your progress is saved forever. Can we keep you at a lower price?
