Went to do the deal for $10/$17 mentioned here, opened app and creates an account. In-App deal currently is less for Pro ($13 vs $17)
https://ibb.co/6wrPnZb
At same time, if you search to open website they are still promoting the Black Friday deal at $20.
Three different prices, all at same time.
In short, try creating a new account in the app for the most savings currently!
Our subscriptions are auto-renewable. To deactivate the automatic renewal you can cancel your subscription up to 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. The cancellation will be effective at the end of your current subscription cycle.
So... cancel immediately after signing up or anytime up to 2 days before subscription endsđź‘Ť you still have access after cancellation until year is up!
About Blinkist Auto-Renewals for Subscriptions
Does the subscription auto-renew?
Our subscriptions are auto-renewed after each billing period (yearly, monthly or quarterly, depending on the subscription you've chosen).
Please note, that if you cancel your subscription it will turn off the auto-renew and end with the current subscription cycle, not immediately.

Basically, it looks like you can cancel right away and still use it. To be extra safe, I'm gonna sign up with PayPal and cancel it from both PayPal's side and Blinkist. Seems like it'll be useful, but I wouldn't be able to stomach paying over $100 a year for this…
UPDATE:
I just did this and it worked. I canceled it right away from the PayPal auto payments side and still had access. I then canceled on Blinkist website and now it says my account is active with a subscription until Dec 4, 2025. It worked. Interestingly, when I attempted to cancel I got an immediate offer for 50% off next year's subscription. I declined the retention offer.
Also, apparently all subscribers get a free invite to bring a friend/family member and share the subscription. So this definitely sweetens the deal since I can share it with my spouse!
Will evaluate one year of service before making any claims that it is worth it!

I'm not looking to impress anyone appearing to read lots of books...I constantly seek to improve myself, so learning the main principles vs weeding thru an entire book for those within the hours of fillers (along with Pro version extras) are well worth the $13 for a year I paid through Google Pay after a Pop up for $13 Pro appeared a few minutes after answering the initial survey questions but didn't pull the trigger when the promotional price wasn't displayed... waiting saved an extra $4.50đź‘Ť
This will be wifey's xmas present as she loves Blinkist. "Oh honey, you spent $100 for my present!!!!"
"Uhh.. yes of course!"

Citi with 15% on BF & 20% on CM for Apple gift cards
Skyzone with their yearly BF special and CM $20 even less.
Most biz and self help types of books have about 2 pages worth of content for every 100 printed pages anyway. They just repeat the same idea with minor variations and long winded made up examples.

I canceled my subscription back in early October, but I was able to renew it for $13 on the app this week when they offered a 90% discount. Not sure if it's targeted, but you might want to check the app for a lower price.

I had the app installed previously and there were free blinks I would listen to even after unsubscribing. It popped up on the app and i paid through the google play store.
