What’s in it for me? So much more than in your Basic subscription!

Since you’re a Blinkist subscriber, chances are there are two things about you that are true: you’re a curious person, but you’re also time poor.

We hope that in your Blinkist journey so far, you’ve already begun to fit more learning into your busy life.

But here’s the thing. You’re a Free subscriber, which means you’re only just scratching the surface.

Don’t worry, though. You can change that! For less than the price of one used paperback per month, you’ll have access to information from over five thousand books in our ever-expanding library.

Still on the fence?

Here’s a quick breakdown of all the wondrous benefits that you’ll discover behind the “Subscribe” button.

We’re the decision-making experts at your service.

A successful career is not just a series of random events. It’s the result of thousands of well-informed decisions. At Blinkist, we’re here to help with that: we provide the knowledge you need so that you can make all those important decisions. For many of our customers, this experience has turned out to be transformative. One of our users said: “This app has helped me learn about myself, and even gave me the knowledge and confidence to make a successful career change.”

In fact, knowledge is the single most powerful career tool. It enables you to take your personal learning and development into your own hands. At Blinkist, we’ve got you covered with a vast catalog of non-fiction titles on subjects ranging from business topics, communication, productivity and personal development, to entrepreneurship and corporate culture.

Perhaps you just want to find out more about a topic quickly? That’s great – we’ll provide you with the content you need to get a basic overview. But maybe you want to go deeper, rediscovering a subject you thought you already knew. Chances are, you’ll find useful content in our app for that as well.

Take it from one of our customer Charlotte who we’ve helped fall in love with work again. She said: “By reading books by experts in my industry (human resources) I have had a renewed interest in my job. I went from feeling overwhelmed and overworked to feeling empowered and excited for my professional development.”

Blinkist Premium gives you access to a library of incredibly dense knowledge. Our Blinks aren’t just abstracts – they're standalone content optimized to be applicable and memorable. You can look at it this way: we have read all these non-fiction books, making decisions about what’s important – so that you have more time for the career decisions that matter most.

Get your favorite content anytime, anywhere, and for however long you like.

So, do you ever find yourself wishing for more after sailing through your free Blink Of The Day? Or wishing you could pull up an idea from last week’s Blink to send to a friend? Well, that’s what Premium is for!

With Premium, it no longer has to just be one Blink a day. Instead of only getting a book, you’re given the keys to the whole library. With over 5,000 titles to choose from, you can handpick exactly what subject, topic, and author you want to read and when. This is exactly what drew our user Elena in. Here’s what she told us: “I can learn from a variety of areas. I learned about kings and history, physics, health, business, parenting and more!” Plus, when you hear something interesting, you can download for offline use, or just share it with friends and family through our Connect feature!

You don’t have to invest much, but get a lot.

Do you love books? The smell of freshly printed pages, the colorful covers that hold the key to a world full of ideas and possibilities? We at Blinkist certainly do, too. But we also know that sometimes, well, you don’t have the time or money to read everything you’re tempted to buy.

So, what if you could invest those two precious resources – time, and money – more wisely and still get access to the world of knowledge?
