FAQs

What do I get with Premium?
All 2,119 ideas and every idea we add later — plus six members-only tools to help you start: Business Partner Finder, Cost & Profit Planner, Idea Fit Finder, and the Help Me Choose, How to Get Customers and Insights from the Industry Rooms. You also get private messages and project spaces for building with other members.
Why choose Premium over Basic?
Basic gives you the ideas. Premium helps you act on one: find the idea that fits your budget and skills, work out costs and profit before you spend, find a business partner, and get real answers from members who are already doing it. Billed yearly — cancel anytime.
Can I cancel Premium?
Yes, anytime, from your account. Premium stays active until the end of the year you paid for, and after that you keep Basic access to all ideas.
Do I have to sign up before I buy?
No. Choose a plan, enter your email and pay — your MoneyReacher account is created with that email as soon as the payment is confirmed. The payment itself is processed securely by our payment partner (Merchant of Record), which also handles tax and your receipt. Next time, log in with your email and password, or with a one-time code we email you.
Do you offer refunds?
All sales are final, except where the law requires otherwise — for example, EU consumers may have a 14-day right of withdrawal, subject to legal conditions. To ask, just email contact@moneyreacher.com from the email you bought with. Cancelling Premium stops the next renewal; unused time isn’t refunded unless the law requires it. See Refunds & Withdrawal.
How is this different from free business-idea lists?
Free lists give you a name and a paragraph. Every idea here comes with a starting budget, how soon it can make its first sale, the first five steps, its main risks and how big it can grow — all searchable and comparable side by side, so you can shortlist the right business in minutes instead of guessing.
