Wanderlog Pro pricing, is Wanderlog free, and what Wanderlog Pro costs a year or a month

How much does Wanderlog Pro cost?

On wanderlog.com/pro, Wanderlog Pro is sold as two plans, each with a Start free trial button: Pro Annual, listed as "starting at $39.99/year" and marked Best value, and Pro Monthly, listed as "starting at $16.99/month". Both include the same features. Twelve months of Pro Monthly is $203.88, which is why the annual plan carries a Save 80% label. The annual plan works out to $3.33 a month, which makes it one of the cheaper paid trip planners on the market, below TripIt Pro at $49 a year and Roadtrippers Premium at $59.99.

The App Store is a different picture. The US listing for Wanderlog shows ten in app purchase options under the Pro name: annual plans at $31.99, $39.99 (three separate listings, one labeled as a 20% discount), $49.99 (three listings) and $59.99, and monthly plans at $5.99 and $16.99. Apple lists every price a developer has ever set up for a region, including ones only shown in a promotion or a test, so not all ten will appear to you. But it explains why reviews disagree: someone who subscribed through an in app offer at $31.99 and someone who saw $49.99 are both reporting what they paid.

The practical rule is simple. If you want the published $39.99, buy on the website while signed in to the same account you use on your phone. The subscription follows the account, and cancellation then lives in your Wanderlog settings rather than in Apple or Google.

The search term "Wanderlog pro discount" usually leads to the $39.99 option labeled as a 20% discount, which is 20% off $49.99. Travel bloggers hand out codes for it. The discount is real against the in app $49.99 price and worth nothing against the website price, which is already $39.99.

What does Wanderlog Pro include?

Wanderlog lists nine Pro features on its pricing table. Offline access, so the trip plan, notes, places and attachments are saved to your phone and open without a connection. Route optimization, which reorders the places in a day into the most efficient loop. Export to Google Maps, which keeps the exported places updated when your plan changes. Automatic Gmail scanning, which pulls flight, hotel and other reservation emails into the trip without forwarding them. Unlimited attachments, unlimited AI assistance, flight and car rental deals, dark mode in the app, and adding places from anywhere on the web.

The free tier, which Wanderlog labels Freemium at $0, keeps the core: unlimited places, live collaboration with friends, import of flights, hotels and cars, smart recommendations, and the itinerary and map in one view. Wanderlog's help center puts it directly: the website and app stay free forever for as many trips as you want, and Wanderlog says it will never restrict the number of trips or the number of people you plan with.

Read the two lists side by side and the split is clear. Free is the planning canvas. Pro is convenience for the person who travels often, flies through dead zones, drives multi stop routes or wants the reservations to appear on their own. Nothing on the Pro list changes what the trip contains.

Is Wanderlog Pro worth it?

For a road tripper or a multi city traveler who plans three or more trips a year, yes. Route optimization alone saves real time on a day with six stops, and offline plans matter the first time you land somewhere without a data plan. At $39.99 a year, one avoided wrong turn or one international data day covers it.

For someone planning one vacation, usually not. The free tier holds the entire plan, the map and the collaboration. If the only Pro feature you want is offline access for a single trip, a monthly option in the app, where it is offered, costs less than the annual plan, and a screenshot or PDF of the day list often does the same job.

For anyone who opened Wanderlog hoping it would plan the trip, the honest answer is no at any tier. Wanderlog is a place to put decisions. Which neighborhoods, which days, how many things fit before dinner, and what the week costs are all still yours to work out, and the AI assistant answers questions about places rather than writing and pricing the days for you. That is the part people usually wanted to pay for.

If you are deciding between Wanderlog and another paid app rather than between free and Pro, Tripsy vs Wanderlog compares the two on price and on what each subscription is for, and Wanderlog Pro cost vs TripIt Pro does the same for TripIt Pro.

Does Wanderlog Pro have a free trial?

Yes. The Pro page offers a free trial on the annual plan, and the button reads Start free trial rather than Buy. Wanderlog does not print the trial length on that page. Several third party reviews report seven days, so read the trial terms on the checkout screen before you enter a card, because a trial that converts to an annual plan charges the full year at the end.

Trials bought through the App Store or Google Play follow the store's rules: the store shows the trial length and the price that follows, and you cancel in your Apple or Google subscription settings. Put a reminder two days before the trial ends, as you would with any annual plan that renews automatically.

How do I cancel Wanderlog Pro?

It depends on where you subscribed, and Wanderlog's help center lists both routes. If you started Pro on the website, go to wanderlog.com/settings/pro and click Unsubscribe. If you started it on an iPhone or Android phone, open your profile in the app, tap the three dots, choose Pro membership, tap Unsubscribe and then finish the cancellation in the App Store or Google Play subscription settings the app sends you to.

Refunds follow the same split. A subscription bought through Apple or Google is refunded by Apple or Google under their policies, not by Wanderlog. That is another reason to subscribe on the website if you care where the billing relationship sits.

Wanderlog Pro vs free and which one you need

Stay on the free version if you take one or two trips a year, share the plan with friends and always have a signal. You lose nothing that changes the plan itself.

Pay for Pro if you travel internationally without roaming, drive routes with many stops, want reservation emails to land in the trip without forwarding, or attach a lot of tickets and PDFs. Those are the four jobs Pro does that free does not, and each one earns $39.99 quickly for the right person.

Look at a different kind of tool if what you are missing is the plan. Group trips are the one place Wanderlog clearly beats everything else, since collaboration is free and live. For a multi city trip or a first trip to Europe, where the hard part is deciding how many nights go where and what each day costs, the time goes into research that Wanderlog does not do for you on either tier.

What Wanderlog does not do, and what that costs you

Wanderlog has a budget: you set a figure in the $ tab and log estimated costs and spending against it. The numbers are the ones you type. Wanderlog does not estimate what a museum day in Rome or an evening in Lisbon will cost, and it will not tell you that day four is $300 over the others or that three sights and a food tour do not fit before sunset.

That planning half is where TripAgent.ai works, and the boundary is worth stating plainly. It does not replace Wanderlog for a group: there is no shared editing and no offline map. It works before the trip. You give it a destination, dates, the party, a total budget and a style, and it writes the day by day itinerary, sequences each day with travel times, puts an estimated cost on every activity, meal and local transfer, totals the days and the trip, and rewrites any single day when you ask it to. The Wanderer plan is $49 a month for 15 itineraries of up to 10 days, and it does not book anything.

Plenty of people will sensibly use both: draft and price the days here, then drop the chosen places into a free Wanderlog trip to share with friends and carry on the phone. If you came here because Wanderlog itself was not the right fit, the Wanderlog alternative page covers that from the other side, and Roadtrippers pricing covers the other big road trip app.
