Pricing

Fahrklar: how the pricing model works

The Fahrklar pricing model is a one-time payment for 30 days of access instead of a subscription. Almost every app in this space runs on a subscription that quietly renews until someone actively cancels it — Fahrklar does it differently: the plan simply expires on its own afterwards. There's no notice period, because there's nothing to cancel, and no charge you didn't see coming.

When a plan expires, you have two options. Switch to another plan, or stay on the free Basic plan. Only the Pro plan doesn't offer switching to another paid plan. Your saved tours are kept in any case; the limits of the plan you're currently on then apply.

For a full travel season, the 3-month package is usually worth it: every paid plan is available not only as a 30-day payment but also as a 90-day one, at a lower total price than three separate 30-day purchases. This doesn't change the underlying model — still a one-time payment with no automatic renewal, just a longer term.

Fahrklar waypoints: what they are and why the count matters

A Fahrklar waypoint is a point your route should pass through: the start, the destination, and every place in between you deliberately want to include. Three waypoints are enough for a straight connection with one stop along the way. Anyone planning a day tour over several mountain passes while taking specific roads quickly needs ten or more. The number of waypoints is therefore the most important difference between the plans, because it determines how precisely you can shape the course of your route.

The second difference between the Fahrklar plans is the range of weather features. Segment-by-segment weather analysis along the entire route is included even in the free Basic plan, because it forms the core of Fahrklar. Starting with Starter, automatic start-time optimization, rain-break planning, live rain radar and elevation profile are added; starting with Plus, route preferences and the "consider EV charging stations" route option, which shows charging points at the start, destination and every break for e-car tours; starting with Pro, live tracking during the ride, the fuel price display at refuel stops and ICS calendar export.

Which Fahrklar plan fits whom?

• Basic for anyone who wants to try Fahrklar first and see how the weather analysis works on their usual routes.
• Starter for a season of regular day tours, where rain-break planning and rain radar make the difference.
• Plus for frequent riders with long, multi-branch routes.
• Pro for very long, carefully pre-planned tours with many waypoints, for rides tracked live on the road, and for anyone who wants early access to new features.

Because every plan ends on its own after 30 days, it can also be handled seasonally: Plus in summer, Basic in winter, without ever having to cancel or pause anything in between.
